The first employment after obtaining your college or university degree usually sets your career pathway for the rest of your life. It establishes your field and gives you experience that you will use as the foundation to build your career. That is why I was very careful and diligent in finding my best options, then selecting the first job with my current employer. It offered a nice career ladder for growth and added responsibility. It had a great 401K plan that matched all contributions by the employee, nice yearly stock options, nice health and medical insurance, holidays off, three weeks of paid vacation per year, plus a very nice mid-six-plus figure salary.
I was pleasantly surprised when I was hired as the supervisor of a team of new hires working on the ergonomic designs for new office equipment that are co-designed for the buildings that contain them. The company delivers a complete package: a state-of-the-art office designed for the full comfort of workers and customers, with impressive sleek multi-floor buildings to contain everything. Our company is literally a one-stop shop for the customer. It is an interesting job with a lot of human interaction which helps us model the requirements of people of all sizes, shapes, weights, gender, and cultures.
Things have been going along well with the team members getting to know each other and learning how to work together to get our part of the projects done in the timeline that the sales group says they were needed by the customer.
A little background on me and my wife. My name is Lucas Taylor. Back in my third year of college, a beautiful coed with golden blonde hair flowing down to the middle of her back came into one of my general education classes, stopped in the front of the whole class, looked all the students over, then walked over and sat right next to me. I was astounded as I stared at this gorgeous blonde with a pair of most amazing crystal blue eyes that sparkled in the overhead lights as she looked back at me. Oh wow! I got lost in those amazing eyes! After about thirty seconds of me staring at her with my mouth agape, she finally broke the silence and said, "My name is Julie. I'm single, no kids, my last boyfriend broke up with me over six months ago. This is my full name and phone number." She handed me a printed card with her information on it. Then said, "Yes, I've available for a date this Friday and Saturday if you'd like." When I finally came to my senses, of course, I reserved both evenings with her. Her address was on the card.
She immediately stole my heart and became my dear wife in the summer between our junior and senior years. She was the typical June bride with all her family and friends making it the biggest event they had all year. We lived together at the college in married student housing and worked hard to finish our schooling. I gave my wife Julie a nickname that exposes what I thought of her.- I called her Jewels.
We discussed children and family over several dinners and during our long road trips to our parents' houses for holidays. We decided that we were going to wait to have any children until after we were both well-accustomed to our new careers. Then she could take time off to have and care for the children. At that point, I felt I should be able to support everyone in the family that came along. We figured that would be about eight years after she left college. Jewels graduated with a degree in marketing at the age of twenty-two years old, I was twenty-three, with a technical business management degree, which means that we would be able to have a couple of kids when she was nearing her thirtieth birthday.
I've always felt our sex life has been was very good. I'd say we are equal in who initiates it. I have times I come home from work, and she is already in bed waiting for me. We usually have at least an hour of trying out different positions and techniques. She seems to prefer the woman on top position the best so she can control the speed and depth of the thrusts. There have been weekends where the sex got started on a Friday night after we went to dinner and continued throughout the night, a few more times on Saturday daytime extending through till past midnight on Sunday morning. She surprised me that she can still want more on Sunday night. Then I think we are good for at least a couple of days. She has an amazing body and a wonderful set of breasts that rival any other woman in the men's magazines. I was truly confident that she has respected her wedding vows and has never cheated on me, and I the same with her. I have been very comfortable in our love and commitment to each other.
At my work, after one of our biggest and most strenuous projects wrapped up and was delivered to the customer, our company management threw us a nice celebration. It consisted of an evening dinner and party at a local club that was well known for its delicious food, great entertainment, and for its late-night party and dancing atmosphere. We were told that they wanted us to bring our significant other or partner to enjoy the food and party. This was also to let everyone have a chance to meet the other half of our relationships. At work, we only saw the employee, but we all know that all our coworkers have another half of their lives outside of work. As this was a celebration and teambuilding event, they wanted us to get to know more about the people that we work with daily.
Jewels and I went to my work celebration with the thoughts of just relaxing, having a few drinks, and her meeting my coworkers and my boss. Everything went well at the party with lots of laughing and jokes being told. When I introduced my boss, Torin Michaels, to my wife, he stood there frozen for what seemed like over half a minute just staring at her beautiful face, nicely styled blonde hair that hung to the middle of her back, and her distinctive stunningly beautiful eyes. Her eye color is an amazingly exceptional icy blue color. This color eyes are found in very few humans (less than one percent). The color is very similar to what many Husky dogs' eye color has. Many people say that her icy blue eyes are her most striking and unforgettable feature.
My boss hung around Jewels for most of the entire evening. He asked her questions about her life, where she was born and raised, where did she go to school, are her parents still alive, how many siblings does she have, and do they have the same eye color as her? He asked several other somewhat personal questions about what her life goals were, where did she want to live, did she see children in her future, etc. He dominated her time for most of the party. He was the first one to dance with her when they started the dance music. I was glad they played mostly upbeat songs with a fast beat which didn't encourage the tight hugging of your partner.
After four dances, I cut in and was able to get a few dances with her before my coworkers cut in on me and danced with her for the next hour. The band took a break and she came and grabbed me and we sat down for a few minutes sipping our drinks.
