It must have been a month or more after Jane finally moved out from Dick's place and back to her parents with Kitty before I heard from her again. Then I got a video-call: she looked as bright and desirable as ever, but obviously puzzled.
It turned out that Jane had landed a call-centre job, but the hours were sh*t and the timetable changed every two weeks. Her mum and dad were working folk and although her dad was night shift, he needed to sleep during the day, and being responsible for Kitty was an imposition. She needed a regular 9-5 job Monday to Friday.
"Uncle," Jane said [that's what she calls me]. "I have asked at work for a 9-5 job, but they are few and far between, and those peeps that have them hang on to them, so the chance of getting one of them is slim or even impossible. There is another avenue, however," she continued. There was a pause and some throat clearing. "I need your advice," she stated. "I have been talking to my colleagues, who are mainly girls. There is an unacknowledged rumour that our VP's and MD appoint their Private Secretaries on other factors other than their clerical skills. The pay is apparently much better, and it is obviously a 9-5 job. What do you think?"
My dick almost leaped out of my shorts as I envisaged the Jane I had briefly sampled being screwed over some VP's desk wearing black underwear that I immediately linked to that scenario, featuring suspender belts and no panties stuff. OK. She had asked a question and the ball was in my court. "Hell, yea," I responded as my first reaction, "But seriously the question is really , what do YOU think?"
"Thanks, uncle, for that endorsement," Jane replied. " It COULD be fun and it certainly will pay well, but what will peeps think of me?" she continued.
"Fuckem...er...the detractors: you got about 10 good years starting now to play that part. You cannot revisit this 10 years from now: it's a now or never deal. If you need to bail out for whatever, just close and lock the box, and move on. For me, I would find you even MORE desirable than I already do. Go fuck, gal. Go fuck 'em!"
Jane looked so relieved at my response, not surprisingly, as it synced with her own gut feelings too. "You know I could never ask MY dad stuff like this, he would kill me!" she exclaimed.
"I know," I chuckled, "But then he has never fucked you either: he has NO idea what he is missing!" I continued.
Jane could not suppress a hearty laugh. Then she got serious again. "Look, uncle, I need to make a decision: I hear that the VP Human Resources has lost his Private Secretary unexpectedly. It is rumoured her hubbie got wind of the deal she was on. The underground has it that any wannabes have to let their supervisor know by this Thursday lunch latest of their interest in the job, which is unadvertised. If they are short-listed they will be booked in for overtime Saturday morning and the VP will stroll around and take it from there around 10 a.m. It is now Tuesday and so I have to act."
"Jane," I started, "I have your back. Go for it. Suck it and see!"
Jane grimaced at my pun and replied, "You are right. The decision is a no-brainer. I am simply being a scaredy-cat. Thanks! Gotta go!"
So the next day Jane advised her Supervisor of her interest, and the following day she received notification that she was booked in for Saturday morning. Butterflies in her stomach and a certainty that there would be now a wet patch on her undies. Now what? What to wear? Had to be professional-looking but sexy too. Jane decided on a black semi see-through bra, matching suspender-belt and panties. Black sheer stockings. A short pencil skirt above the knee in graphite grey [no eraser] with a 6-inch slit at the back so she could still walk, and a lightweight pure white long-sleeved blouse with tiny frills at collar and cuffs. She thought about a choker, but then that would have been TOO obvious, and so a black bow would have to suffice. Just the shoes now. No question but black stilettos with 4-inch anodised silver heels. Must be new so that the bright yellow/orange leather rise between the sole and heel was as clean as a whistle. Never know who might see them. Done. Friday afternoon would be best for the shopping as she had been given time off to compensate for Saturday.
