Victor McGregor walked into the project management Atlanta Office of Victor Architectural Inc, one of the largest building architectural firms on the east coast for his first day in the new position of his firm. He was clean cut, handsome, rugged, with a Master's degree in architectural design and business finance. He had transferred in from the Miami office where he had been working as a mail clerk there while finishing out his degree there. He was looking for his new boss who seemed to be about as hard to find as one could be. Victor had a little secret that everyone was told to keep quiet about in HR. The president and CEO of this firm was his own father and he was being groomed up to take over the mantel by working at the different firms over the next few years till he understood how the business worked. No body, including his new boss knew though and HR kept it that way for a reason. It was justified by saying no one would get any special treatment... including the boss's son.
As he reached the office security station, he held out a card that he had been given from HR and his license and said, "Hi! I am Victor. I am here to start my first day here..."
He was 15 minutes late already and he knew that was a lousy impression to give, but it was all part of the package...

Annabelle Renard, was petite, 5'0 to be exact, her raven hair in a tight bun. She looked up at him with her piercing blue eyes behind her glasses at the older man. She already knew the time without looking T her watch. She glance at his document and lean back in her seat:" Poncuality is expected from all our employees. " * motion him to seat * " do you have a habit of arriving late cause if so, this will not work"
Herself she arrived half an hour early just in case things needed fixing. She was very helpful and truly involve in her job, she personally made sure that everything run smoothly. The team always could count on her which explain the ambiance and positive energy.
" please tell me about yourself...and why I should keep you around after such a first impression"
Victor leaned back and gave her a good once over before finally saying, "It was traffic. You may have heard of the accident on Smith Street. Three cars ahead of me. Its not like me to be late i assure you." His eyes moved along her curvy form and then back to her angry eyes and cleared his throat, saying, 'It won't happen again boss. I promise."

Annabelle didn't wanna sound like a bitch and gave him the benefit of the doubt and nodded: " Next time, please do call and inform us as this is your work place. You want to have a good relationship with your co worker and made it a habit to come early. Myself i leave an hour earlier than necessary for work cause of the traffic. I will let it go this time just make sure that it does not happen again" * She handed him the documents: " These need your signature and I will have my secretary show you the are and duties.." *She also hand him a stack of document:" I expect this done before you leave. Marie will be helping you with the rest..." *She buzzed the secretary a lady in her early thirties, chubby but a nice smile and friendly personality*
Seeing Marie caught me unawares! She did know who I was and I couldn't afford her squealing to everyone my little secret at the moment so as soon as I left your office, following her, I leaned in and said, "You know who I am?"
Marie nodded nervously and said, "Y... yes sir."
"You understand I don't want people knowing who I am right?" I said as I followed her to the supply locker in the back of the office.
"I... umm... I do know sir." She muttered keeping her eyes lowered.
"Good girl. Stay quiet. Follow your bosses commands and everything will go well. Understand?" I said as she handed me a welcome to Atlanta kit of goodies and office supplies.
"Y... yes sir." She muttered, her knees struggling not to shake.
"It's all good. We are good. I just don't want anyone knowing. Now... where do I work out of?" I said as she led me off to my office.
It didn't take long for me to be handed my first task which involved renovating a small southern cooking restaurant chain right out the bat. I picked up my keys, let you know I was heading out to the diner to meet with the owners of the 5 restaurant chain to discuss the plans. To my delight, you told me you would be joining me so we left together to the diner home store.

She motion him to take the lead and simply observed to take notes. She watch him perform and was quite impressed, she just wished he learn to be ponctual to work and it be great assset to their group. After the endless work that she was fully involve, hands on, she was not scared of working. He found himself not needing make request as she was organize enough to set everything in order to get everything rolling. Of course Marie never said anything as she knew her job be on the line, plus she had a crush on him.
As things were completed, she help get everything in the vehicle and glance at him: " Nice job...your probably exhausted, where shall i drop you off?" *She place the key the engine and started drive out of the parking lot, she kept rethinking of their work. It appeared to her as if he had lots of job experience, even had an authoritative presence. She went in a drive through and ordered something to eat and glance at him: " Want anything? I am to tired to cook tonight, so best option..."
