Stella Ackman knew she was wasting her time. She was the CEO of Ackman Applied and had a staff of one hundred employees now and yet she still took the time to interview applicants personally for positions at her company. It wasn't that she didn't trust her staff, but rather than she wanted to have a personal feel to the company even though it was growing out of her control. She still hadn't taken the company public and until she was forced to, she'd take a chance to get to know her employees.
Unfortunately, she hadn't found the right employee yet. She had met with five applicants and had yet to find someone to join the sales force for her business. The last few people to walk through her door were horrendous. Besides her secretary, Eva, there was a woman who didn't even dress for an interview, a man who hit on her, and a blond slut who covered up once she realized she was meeting with a woman.
Stella leaned back in her chair sighing and hoped the next one would be better. She wished her assistant hadn't left. Ahh her former personal assistant, Lynn, she always entertained Stella, always at her side, always willing to please, and her ex-assistant pleased her, very much. Now with out her, she counted to herself to calm herself and looked in the mirror she hid in her liquor cabinet.
"You need to find someone else to do these interviews, girl." The mirror recited the mantra back to her as well.
Stella wore a power suit with a skirt like always, today's was black. She wanted to exude that she was in charge. This was a family company, but the matriarch was behind the desk. Her brown hair was up in a bun, and she wore the minimum makeup she could. She was a business woman in that order, her work came first. Her blue eyes though shined through. A shame, but there was only so much she could do.
She reached thirty in her count and then shook her head, she wanted to give the next person a fair shake, but she had no hope for a change. She had no way to relax any more, she was forced to focus on work non-stop for the last week. The intercom on the desk blinked, letting her know that Eva wanted something. Stella's hand dropped to the buzzer and almost pressed the do not disturb button, she could find someone else to take care of this mess. Instead Stella pressed the call button.
"Send in the next one."
"He'll be right in Mrs. Ackman."
The doors to the office opened, and a man walked through them. Instantly Stella gave the man a point for bringing a suit that fit. Something about his face though warned Stella she had seen him or someone like him before. Her mind raced as she tried to think of who the man reminded her of, and if this could be the same.
The man approached the desk and offered the resume in his hands to Stella. Stella had a printed version of all the applicants resumes, but this attention to detail separated the prepared from the perpetually unprepared and Stella noted it.
The guy was good looking, he wasn't muscular, but he wasn't flabby. Just the right mix between the two. He had a way of walking that interested Stella. His brown ruffled hair stayed still as he walked, and he had a charming smile.
Stella noticed his hazel eyes watching her as she tried to remember where she had seen him before, but couldn't remember it.
"Please sit down..." She checked the resume handed to her to get the guy's name, Jamie Wallace. That didn't ring any bells. "Mr. Wallace"
"Please call me Jamie." Jamie sat down in the chair and waited as Stella went over the resume.
Jamie Wallace had a short work history. He started at a competitor in the industry, moved to work on a sales floor and then there was a short gap in his resume of almost two years. Curious, though times were hard, so maybe he had lousy luck finding a job. Or maybe he was a grade A fuck up and the interview would be over in record time.
"So Jamie, what brought you to my business?"
And so began the oral service. Jamie knew the game and lavished praise on Ackman Applied. This was Stella's favorite part of the interview, a chance for the applicant to suck up to her and tell her how amazing her business was. It was a great company Stella was proud of, but she loved hearing how much the idiots who applied sold her on her own company
Jamie did his job well, telling her about the place in the industry, the level of quality, and the industry reputation that Stella was sure her company had. While it was often bullshit as it could be said about any company, he made her believe his bullshit, and she listened politely.
Stella puzzled over the familiar face as she listened. The next step was to recite the work history again. This was redundant but Stella loved the little power trip she got when she made someone recite something she already knew. Rarely was it clear someone was lying, but the ability to make someone repeat something on command was thrilling.
"So Jamie, about the last two years?"
"I knew you'd notice that. I left the industry for a couple years for a personal matter. However it was a one time thing and I'm committed to join the industry again."
A personal matter, juicy. Stella would have to figure out what that was. While Jamie answered it well, Stella wouldn't let him get away with just that. She wanted to probe more.
"How did you support yourself during that time, Jamie? It must have been hard to live in this city without the income?"
Jamie shifted uncomfortably. "I was working Mrs. Ackman, but don't worry, it was a personal situation and not one that will interfere with my position here. I'm here to take care of business."
'I'm ready to take care of business'. That quote, Stella had heard someone say the line just like that, but where. Stella thought about it as she looked down at the paper. She was ready to push harder on the missing years of work when it came to her. 'I'm ready to take care of business.' was said in an erotic movie that Stella had seen a couple months previously. It might not have been a direct quote, it was probably more like 'I'm here to take care of your business.' But the person who said it sounded just like...
Jamie Wallace... He looked like a double of the star of that movie. Stella's jaw was about to drop when she stopped herself. The character's name was a horrible name like Rod Hammer, but she remembered the actor's name because it was silly... Big Ben.
