He had been working at GenOp, one of many Seattle software companies, for just over three months, and so far things had been pretty uneventful. Standing at just over 6'3" he was a little taller than most around the office, but in the dress-shirt-and-tie world, he blended in pretty well.
Most days blended into the other, and for Robert Payne, things started to become bland, uneventful. He found himself at another day of work, standing in front of the large mirror in the men's restroom washing his hands, when another employee walked in.
"Hey, Rob."
"Hey, Mike, how's it going?"
"Not bad. You hear about the our new boss?"
"We're getting a new boss," Rob replied with a blink. He realized he couldn't even remember the full name of the old one right off hand.
"Yeah, they just hired her a couple days ago. Word is that she's a real hot bitch. I just hope she's not a crazy one, too." With a quick wash of his hands, Mike was gone, and Rob was left, hands still wet, to stare at himself in the mirror.
A hot new boss? Maybe it was what the place needed to pick it up a little bit around here. He knew the men would certaintly be paying better attention, at least. Looking himself over in the mirror, his tall, lightly muscled frame showed that he worked out regularly, but the dark color in his eyes that went with his dark hair showed he also worked too hard while at his job. Maybe a hot new boss would be good to take his mind off things for a few minutes a day... sit back and relax, imagine her lips wrapped around him...
With a shake of the head and a chuckle to himself, he dired his hands and went back to his office.
