THE INSTITUTE RECYCLING INDENTURED PROPERTY FOR RE-EMPLOYMENT
I was ushered into Angie's spartan office. I had been dragged out of a steamy session with the Cosmetologist, a nubile woman who just depilated my pubic hair and leaving me with a color landing strip.
"Why had I been waxed?" I asked the attending Cosmetologist.
The stark answer that came off her lips, "recycling" spoke volumes. Officially, recycling recovered the energy of used property and converted its essence suitably to devotion to a new use. In the process a recycled indenturee would remain property, and asset on its owner's books.
"Consider yourself lucky to have been beautified by an accomplished artistes, a master of the trade. You are to be prepared for recycling in a transaction the Institute regards as important. You were not left to the uncertain hands of the trainees." The cosmetologist boasted.
"Tell me about the undependability of trainees," I exclaimed.
That very morning breaking up a mutiny among my training crew, I referred Stacy, a newly indentured volunteer to Dr Crenshaw for 25 whacks with the paddle. Her offence was protesting that my order to recommend two girls for punishment. "That would be unfair!" Stacy found her voice to protest. "They all disobeyed."
"A taste of the paddle might prod Stacy," I told Dr Crenshaw, "To grow up enough to merit assignment in the professional caste as a teacher or governess."
Escorting me to the shower to wash the goo off, the Cosmetologist reflected on the undependability of trainees, "What would you expect from debtors recently rounded up off the street after default, subjected to a body execution, stripped of their dignity and compelled to work for a master? They must learn the obligation to obey."
"But what is the point of waxing me?" I asked.
Slipping out of her white scrubs quicker than turning the faucet of the shower. in the aquamarine shower, the attending cosmetologist answered, "Because the Institute Director Dr Crenshaw has ordered it. That doesn't mean we can't have a little fun in the process."
Washing away the depilatory cram, the attending cosmetologist cooed "The goo warms your insides up like a man, but the mess left behind is easier and more fun to clean up." As the cosmetologist with circular motions washed the gunk off my mound and began to reach my labia, she murmured in a soothing voice, "Working my way down your ventral side may be more fun but I have to clear the dorsal side as well." Her voice turned sharp with an order, "Turn around bend over."
Sensuous strokes and gentle stretches massaged my backbone from the joint which connects my collarbone to my shoulder blade reaching into my crack to palpate my tailbone, The attending cosmetologist, in soothing, seductive tones, assured me of her purpose to ease muscle tension and promote circulation.
The crack of a gentle slap landing on my wet butt told me that our session was over. "The administrative assistant Angie wants you upstairs. No need to dress." The attendant held out the promise in a seductive voice, "I want you later."
"A servant," I chided the Cosmetologist, "even one with the most favorable terms of indenture possible remains a servant, subject to the will of the master."
Our master Dr Crenshaw who held meetings, ordained policy and made or confirmed major decisions from the repose of his hot tub in a magnificent pool complex tiled in shades of blue and white. Audiences with Dr Crenshaw in the hot tub were attended in the natural state while two tall naked male security, arms crossed over muscular chests, both eunuchs, with shriveled penises guarded the entrance to the tub. Principal staff joined Dr Crenshaw in an early morning nude run through the woods and a cold shower in collected rainwater. What made Dr Crenshaw's enchanted life of detached reflection possible was his tall, lean administrative assistant Angie, prepared to crack the whip figuratively as well as literally.
Who was it who said `you'll find a dictator is invariably thin' was thinking of Angie.
Clothed in her grey business suit, Angie raced from behind her desk to place a towel over a chair before she invited me to hate a seat. Resuming her place behind the desk, Angie thanked me for coming by so quickly. Taking the towel covered seat, I apologized, "My instructions were to report as I was."
"Navigating the corridors naked is not deemed offencive. Dr Crenshaw meets everyone in the nude," Angie replied. "I'm the lawyer; Dr Amy is the physician, Meg is his sister, but we all meet him in our natural state. It indicates that what we have comes from him.. We hold our positions, whatever they are at his pleasure."
Turning to the matter at hand, Angie, the Institute's tough blonde administrative assistant, drew out the Indenture I signed seven years ago and placed it on her desk. "Your indenture expires at midnight. If you don't accept recycling into new Indenture, I have no further authority to hold you."
"Recycled as used property or release into uncertainty is an interesting way of putting my predicament," I griped. Angie was too smooth to blame me for creating this difficult question in which every answer would be wrong by some measure.
I might have kept a position in training at The Institute, but I was offered this non -- professional position as supervisor of a work -- gang because I had too swiftly put down a mutiny among the trainees in my care and even identified potential supervisory personnel who could replace me.
