I recently started a new job and I was a bundle of nerves. I was with my last company for over 15 years and I didn't how well I would do on interviews since it has been a long time since I did any interviews. The interview went well and was actually called back for a second one and that's when I first set my eyes on Jim. He looked like a street wise black dude that may have that "black boy" attitude but had a cute smile and was build like a black God. I'm just a little 5'3" tall white girl, very fair with red hair, freckles and blue/green/gray eyes. He was working with a client when I came in and I was taken by his over-all appearance and look. It was early summer so he was wearing a pair of white slacks with a purple shirt with the top button open exposing a very attractive silver chain and like those big heavy-ass gold chains that they are known to wear.
Sitting in the waiting area, I got myself a good look at him and I actually found myself getting a little damp in the panties but thought I better stop thinking like that because he probably has a girl or several girls or is married and I wouldn't have a chance with him. I actually had the opposite outfit on with a pair of purple slacks and a white blouse with silver chain that was given to me by one of my bosses from my last job for a job well done on a project that I worked on for a half of year and many miles traveled from here in New Jersey and the west coast.
Jim stepped out of his office and saw me and asked me if I needed help and I told him was was there to see Marie for my second interview and he told me that he would let her know and mentioned that usually when she calls for a second interview you can always bank on getting hired. Good luck he told me and winked and my heart started to pound outside my chest. Within five minutes, Marie was out and brought me into her office. We sat down and we talked and she told me she was very impressed with my resume and my work history and would love me to start as soon as I could. I told her that I could start as early as the following week and had already scheduled a few doctor appointments while I was out of work and she told me that wasn't any issue that we can always work around that. We discussed my duties and my salary and she actually offered me $ 25,000 more than I was asking.
We walked out of her office and towards Jim's office and she knocked on his door. I was melting inside but didn't want to show it to her or him that I was getting all excited. As Jim approached the door and opened it, I could see a smile come across his face. Marie introduced us and told Jim that I am his new assistant and I almost hit the floor. Jim extended his large black hand to my little white one and congratulated me and said he was looking forward to working with me.
Our first assignment was going to Las Vegas of all places; somewhere I have always wanted to go but never have. I play the slots in Atlantic City and have been dying to go to Vegas. She went over all the plans for our trip and said we would be going in two weeks, so my first week there we would be doing a very heavy work schedule and maybe working some late nights and Jim said he was good with all of that and I told her it was with me also. When we were leaving Jim's office, Marie got called away for a minute and he handed me his card with his personal cell number on it and told me to call him and maybe we can meet up and go over things this weekend coming up if I wanted and I said I would. He told me to call after 6 because he would be home and we can work out a dinner night to meet.
Marie came back and presented me with two sets of keys; one set for the office I will be sharing with Jim along with the keys to the cabinets and a car key for the company car I'm being issued. I never knew all of this came with the position and I'm in shock. Working with Jim will be great but I have to be a professional and remember that he is my boss and to mind my manners and not to do anything stupid to make me look foolish. We shook hands and Jim offered to show me where my car was.
We walked out into the parking lot and my car was parked right next to his. He has a Ford Explorer and I had the Nissan Rouge. We talked for a bit and looked into the car and he showed me the special features they had put in it like a blue tooth is hooked up for use for my company cell which he handed to me and my own personal and just change the phone being used by a button on the radio. He told me that the job is stressful at times, but we get to have dinners out a lot if we are working late and stay at five-star hotels when we are away. We get an expense account while we are away and we make out really well. I thought I was in a dream because I never expected the position to be some rewarding and have such perks. He told me to call him the next night set up something and I promised I would as he walked me to my car.
