Everyone in this story is 18 years old or older.
James could hardly contain his excitement. Just out of college and his first job entailed his being in charge of his own office and staff. Four employees were under his authority. He could scarcely believe his good fortune.
This "good fortune" shouldn't come as that much of a surprise to him. With his good looks and athletic build most everything had come easy for James. Handsome folks seem to breeze through life on a different plane as opposed to us regular folk.
James's blond hair and deep blue eyes had charmed many girls throughout thigh school and college. He was proud of his good looks and sleek body and wasn't afraid to use them to his advantage. He loved to tease those unfortunate girls that didn't meet his standard of looks. He enjoyed playing with their hopes that they might get to date him someday. He'd lead them to believe they had a chance and at the last moment drop them. He lives to treat women like lesser humans than men. He got off on the feeling of putting them in "their place."
The office had only been up and running for two weeks but the four women working there had already pegged James as a prick. Sandra and Pam were also fresh out of college and this was their first job. The other two women in the office were veterans. Blanche and Betty had been with this company a combined twenty-five years.
Both Blanche and Betty had been passed over, by men, for promotions more than a few times. They both were well aware of this but had few avenues of recourse.
All four women under James realized what kind of boss he was and knew they just needed to bide their time. If the women worked together he could do little more than annoy them.
Blanche received a call from corporate indicating there was an emergency that needed immediate resolution. She knocked on James's door. "Come in,"James said.
"I just received a call from corporate," Blanche told him. "It seems someone screwed up royally."
"How's that"? James asked.
"Every employee, new or tenured, starting in a new position must undergo a company insurance physical," she said.
"So how's that an emergency or a screw up." James asked.
"The mandatory physical MUST be completed BEFORE starting the job position. We were supposed to have completed these exams two weeks ago before starting these jobs." Blanche explained.
"So what's the big deal, we'll get them done sometime soon,"James responded.
"Corporate thinks differently. We have twenty-four hours to get these exams completed or they'll shut us down, maybe permanently." Blanche explained.
"What the fuc...you can't be serious"! James said. "How can we possibly get that done in that amount of time, that's Impossible!"
"Well, having been with the company for as many years as I have, I do have friends inside," Blanche announced. "I'd be happy to see if I can get this taken care of, if you'd like me to try"?
"Please! If there's anything you can do I would greatly appreciate it." James responded. "Of course this helps all of us here, you ladies included."
Blanche recognized the smirk intended by his last comment. In other words you need to do this to save your job. Damn was he an ass hole or what?
Blanche called her good friend and co-worker, Dr. Jane Smith. Dr. Smith was the company's on-site medical professional. She handled everything from minor scrapes and yearly physicals to determining if an employee needed to be hospitalized. She too was a long time company employee.
After Blanche had explained the situation to Dr. Smith, she agreed to work them in tomorrow. Blanche went on to fill the Dr. in on what a piece of work her new boss was. She mentioned how he treated his female employees as second class citizens and belittled them at every opportunity.
Dr. Smith listened to every word Blanche said and assured her she'd run into his type many times before and couldn't stand them. She ended the call by telling Blanche that they should all report to her clinic first thing tomorrow morning. Blanche was to make sure everyone understood that she'd be working them in as she could and to expect the exams to take longer than a scheduled exam.
James was relieved to hear the great news and that they wouldn't be in danger of being closed permanently just as they were getting up and running.
The next morning Sandra, Pam, Betty and Blanche were waiting at the clinic door when it opened. The young receptionists said, "You must be the 'emergency' group Dr. Smith told me to be expecting this morning."
Blanche spoke up saying, "This is most of us. There's still one missing," she explained in an unapologetic tone. "James, our boss seems to be running late."
"That's no way to start off with the Dr., she's quite a stickler for being prompt," the young receptionists said. "Dr, Smith instructed me to bring you guys back as soon as you arrived. I guess we'll start without your boss."
She led them back to an exam room where the exams began.
Nearly an hour later James came lumbering into the clinic. Strutting up to the receptionists he said, "Hi, I'm James and we, my office subordinates and I, were to get an emergency exam today."
The receptionists looked up at the handsome young man and said, "Yes. You were expected first thing this morning, I believe."
"Oh well I assumed that was for my staff. Since I'm the boss and the only man, I presumed the Dr. could take care of the 'girls' and then attend to me." James arrogantly replied.
"Oh I see," she said. "I'll let the Dr. know your finally here. Please have a seat behind you in the waiting room till I return."
In a very few minutes the young receptionists returned and called for James to follow her back to an exam room. "Please have a seat and the Dr. will be with you shortly," she said.
Not long after she left the room the door flew open and Dr. Smith appeared. "Just for future inquiries I do not tolerate tardiness. My time, if not yours, is extremely valuable and I do not appreciate it being wasted." She said in a scolding tone.
"I had no idea that management was expected to be on the same time schedule as employees," James replied. " I assumed that our management exams would be of a...seperate level."
"This should be a lesson on assumptions. "Dr. Smith answered. " I'm in charge of this clinic and all my exams are carried out as I see fit!"
"Oh...ok then," James mumbled, feeling a bit put in his place.
"Now since you're so late we're going to have to play catch up." Dr. Smith proclaimed. "I'll need you to cooperate with me without any flack."
James nodded his head in apparent agreement.
"Here," she said as she tossed him a hospital type gown, put this on and I'll be right back."
Before she exited James asked, "Is this...gown...thing really necessary"?
"Yes it most certainly is. If you hadn't been so late we might have been able to skip it but since you didn't, it is necessary," she insisted. "And by the way remove everything, your shoes, socks and underwear." With that last word the door closed behind her.
As uncomfortable as it felt James started removing his clothes. When he was down to only his underwear he opened the gown and unfolded it. Looking at it with a puzzled expression he thought to himself what the fuck? When it was completely unfolded it seemed very small. He slipped it on running his arms through the arm holes. It was the type that tied in the back. If it weren't tied the back would be open.
When he got it on he looked down. The thing was short. It barely covered his underwear covered crotch. When he tried to tie it in the back he couldn't even get the strings to meet. Seeing a mirror he walked over and turned. His entire backside was visible.
As he was still trying to tie the strings in the back, Dr. Smith re-entered the room. Her first words were, "I thought I made it clear, no clothes under the gown!"
"Well...this...gown...must be for a kid. It doesn't even close in the back and it barely covers my crotch in the front." James announced.
"I'm sorry but I grabbed the last clean gown in the supply closet. Every other gown is being washed, it will have to do." The Dr. said, "If you had been on time there wouldn't be a problem so you can only blame yourself."
James just flashed her a, 'eat shit and die' look. "Can we please just get on with this...whatever...exam?" He asked.
"Let's get something straight right now, young man! I'm in charge here and I refuse to put up with any disrespect or foolishness. I can either complete this 'emergency' exam my way or you can leave right now and your job is history." Dr. Smith informed James. "It makes no difference to me either way. Do I make myself clear?"
"Ok,ok, I get it. You need to feel like you're the big dog here. You're the 'boss lady'. Whatever, it's all good," James answered sarcastically.
"Hop up on the exam table and sit," Dr. Smith ordered. " I'm going to take your vitals." After taking his temp, blood pressure and looking in his ears, mouth and throat she left the room again. "I need to check on another patient. When I come back please be ready to continue your exam without anymore delays," she said.
James laughed to himself whispering, "you cunt." He did nothing but lay back on the exam table until he heard the door start to re-open. He then quickly sat back up.
"I thought I asked you to be ready to continue with the exam before I left?" Dr. Smith said with authority.
"I am as ready as I'll ever be,"James laughed.
