I was out of school for the summer. Being a 20 year old college student, I always needed money to pay for school. Fortunately, daddy was able to find a job for me at this real estate investment company. He was friends with one of the people who worked there. Apparently, I was going to be an administrative assistant for a woman named Jan. I didn't know much about her other than the fact that she had just started working for the company as well. Needless to say, I was a little nervous meeting her. I wanted to make sure that I made a good impression on my new boss.
I decided to wear a knee length black skirt, a pair of open toed pumps and a red short sleeve blouse. I came to work early on a Monday morning. I was probably there at around 7:45 AM. I walked in the building and told the receptionist that I was Jan's new assistant.
The receptionist, a middle aged woman, said "Oh, I see. Well have a seat, she should be in shortly."
I didn't know what that was all about, but I decided let it go. I didn't want to get into the office politics thing yet. So I took a seat over at the couch in the lobby and proceeded to wait for my new boss to arrive an hour later.
At around 8:45, a person walked through the door, wearing a white button up long sleeve shirt, a pair of blue jeans and brown penny loafers. The person had short white hair, a husky yet muscular body with broad shoulders and what looked like breasts. To be honest, I wasn't sure if it was a man or a woman until she spoke to the receptionist in a deep but definitely female voice.
"Hey Susan, is my new assistant here yet?" said Jan.
"She's right over there." Said the receptionist nonchalantly.
The woman with the short white hair and masculine body walked over towards me. Just by the way she walked, I could tell that she was a confident person, a go-getter, she knows what she wants and gets it. I was already intimidated by her and she hadn't even said a word yet!
As Jan came to the couch, I stood up to meet her. I was 5'6" without shoes on, and even with my heels, she was still a little bit taller than me. When she extended her hand to shake mine, I couldn't help but notice how different we both were. She had a stout, masculine frame compared to my slender, tight, young feminine body. She had short white hair and I had long sandy blond hair. She had to be in her mid to late 50's and I was 20. We were definitely opposites.
"Hello, you must be my new assistant Carli. It's good to meet you!" Said the Jan as she smiled and shook my hand with a firm grip. "Let's go to my office and get to know each other."
As we walked to her office, I could see that Jan was checking me out. I've had plenty of guys ogle me before, but I was uncomfortable having my boss, an woman, leering at me! I decided to let it go though. She was going to be my boss for the summer and I didn't want to start if off on the wrong foot. I would just have to subtly let her know that I was not interested and unavailable.
Jan sat behind her big desk in her plush office. She told me what she expected from me as her assistant. She said that she could be demanding and a "hard ass" at times but she promised that it wouldn't happen very often and that she could be a fun boss too.
Along with job expectations, Jan told me more about herself. I found out that she was 55 years old, a mother of two fully grown daughters, one of which was married with children, the other was a Marine. She also told me that she was a butch lesbian and was in a relationship with a woman in her 30's. For a woman in her 50's she looked like she could take care of herself.
Even though Jan told me that she was in a relationship, I wanted to make sure that she knew that I was unavailable just in case. I told her that I was 20 years old and had a boyfriend, who went back home in another state, that I was deeply in love with. I also told her that I was going to be a senior in college and planned to be a teacher. Then I went on to tell her that I was working over the summer to get money to pay for books and tuition for classes.
I had to admit that I was nervous and uncomfortable sitting there knowing that I was going to be working for Jan. I had lived a sheltered life and had never been exposed to a butch lesbian before. I know that my parents would've freaked out if they knew that their little girls was working for a lesbian. My dad especially since he's the one who found me this job.
They wouldn't have wanted me to consort with a woman like Jan. They would've been afraid that my new boss would try to take advantage of their little girl. And in a way, that made it a little thrilling to me, knowing that it was something they wouldn't approve of.
The first week of work was great. Jan got me up to speed and showed me what I need to do. It was a lot of fun working for her actually. The more I got to know Jan the more I enjoyed working for her. She was down to earth, funny and charismatic. Honestly if my dad got to know her, I think he would have liked her too. Even though she was like 35 years older than me, Jan had a boyish charm about her and she was able to make me laugh a lot. She had a devilish look in her eyes and cute dimples whenever she smiled.
I wasn't gay, I liked boys my own age not women who were older than my dad. I didn't want to have sex with her, but I think I had developed a bit of a crush on my boss. I found myself becoming flirtatious with her. It was hard to explain. It was exhilarating being around her. I didn't know if it was because I just got to know her better or if it was because because it was something else. Maybe part of it was the thrill of knowing that I could be the object of lust and affection to both sexes. Feeling the rush of something that was taboo and knowing that this was something that society and my parents in particular would disapprove of. Whatever it was, it made me feel sexy and dirty at the same time and I loved the feeling.
I had begun to wear tighter, more revealing clothes at work in an effort to really get Jan's attention. Whenever I walked past her, I would sway my hips a little more. It seemed to work too. I would catch Jan staring at me more often than before. She would give me all sorts of projects that required me to be in her office.
