My Sweet Boss

"Hey, it's office lunch time. Aren't you coming along?" Mike asked this afternoon. I pretended not to hear him so he kicked my chair several times.

So I feigned a sick look and he laughed, "Overcome by a sudden sickness, eh? No can do, you are still coming."

Forced thus, I dragged my relunctant feet towards the other colleagues (and yes, Alec included of course). Thank the Lord that the lunch went without a hitch! Alec and I managed to conduct some very brief but decent conversations. Phew!

Then during an after lunch office meeting, my boss mentioned something nice. He said that the company will put good-looking staff to good use by making them ambassadors for the company.

"Good-looking people such as you," he gestured at me. "And him," he pointed at Alec. My evil guess is, he's taking precautions just in case Alec made a classic remark like, "But I think I'm better looking than her!"

Anyway, isn't that just so sweet of my boss? It sure chased the Monday blues away...

Hee!

*Serious?? Well, if there's ever the slightestly remote chance of something sparking, it'll have to strictly be in the tune of 'When You Say Nothing At All." ;-)

*Hee, Irene... you know what they say (or rather what Mark Twain said) - "You can live on a compliment for three whole months!" Hehehe...

Billboard adverts, eh? Now that's a nice thought. Maybe can promote my favourite shampoo or digital camera or fragrant rice... hmmmmm :-))
