Jimin had been working two weeks at his new job.the first week he'd basically gathered information,learned who did what for whom.
He'd also become aware of those who shirked on their job or tried to get juniors to do all their work while they took credit.
One thing he'd asked for in his contract was that he was in charge of administrative staff with the power to hire or fire.
The following week was all about getting ready for changes both in location and in duties.
With permission from the owners he held an administrative briefing at the start of the day on the Tuesday.
"Thank you for coming,you've all seen me around for the last week so today I will tell you my full duties.im in charge of getting this company to run more efficiently,to make it better for both you and your bosses.
"Excuse me Mr Park....isnt it a bit presumptuous of you to think things are wrong ?" A man asked with a smirk on his face looking around at others waiting for them to agree with him.
"Bak -son isn't it?let's take an example shall we? You were asked by Hobi hyung to set up a timetable that was agreeable with the group,Shazam yes? You were told that it was important that due to their vocal training they had early morning appointments.Not only did you not take this on straight away you forgot it until the last minute then ordered a junior assistant to set this up.She had extreme trouble doing this because those slots had been taken.
Luckily for her I managed to quickly rearrange things to Hobi hyungs request,you took the praise thinking the assistant had done it.
Now do you think that was efficient?"
"Well...I...the thing is er a lot was going on and shouldn't a junior have more responsibilities?"
"There was a lot going on,none of it from you,you take tea breaks every half hour you dump your workload on others,you think nobody will notice when you slip into a storage room for however long you want and you unnecessarily rebuke juniors if they haven't done your work in a timely manner....your fired."
"What...you can't ,I've been working here for years,there's no proof of what you say!!"
"You've been freeloading for years,the proof is the cctv cameras,which I had installed six days ago,it's all there for the record."
Bak-son stood up," I'll speak to the bosses!"
"Feel free who do you think gave me the authority to do this?"
The angry man stomped to his desk grabbing things from there.
"Only personal things,books notes things like that are company property,Mr Hanseon can you help him vacate his desk and the building,make sure his pass is taken from him."
"Sure thing Mr Jimin," the friendly security guard said smiling,he'd never liked the bossy male who'd just been fired.
"Right then anyone else want to leave?I don't like shirkers or selfish workers. You more experienced staff are the ones that guide the juniors,none of this I'm better than them attitude,people blossom when they are shown the right route and helped along the track,you were once them so you know how worrying it can be to feel undervalued and not tutored correctly.
Going forward,the secretaries of each boss will be in charge of their bosses daily routine,I've set up a colour coded algorithm or calendar on your systems for you to correlate timings for interviews,schedules,dance room bookings and studio time.
This will save people having to come back over different days for different things. If group A has a recording on Monday we try and get them also into the dance studio for their routine on Monday as well, not coming Monday dance on Wednesday deal with admin on a Friday. , you get in as much as they physically feel comfortable with,you speak to their support managers for preferences while explaining one day is more efficient for them as well as us they carry on with their outside ventures the rest of the week but saying that if they want extra time we do it to our schedule,we fit them in a timely measure but one group is not favoured over another.i don't like hierarchy it results in contempt."
"As the main secretaries you each will be assigned a junior secretary who will be the runner if you will,someone who can pick up the excess under your discretion and learn on the job . Those of you left don't consider yourselves anything less we need you to keep things running smoothly,typing contracts, renewing data,compiling lists a very much needed job.
This week probably Friday office staff are moved to the top floor,works starts tonight on decorating and refurbishing hopefully without too much fuss,all the managers will be on one floor,as will all of you,bar the receptionists who are being moved to the lower floor as a greeting point rather than at a desk outside the lift.
The staff room will be kept on this floor and lunch breaks will be at certain times,more seating will be put there for you to physically be away from your desk and take a proper break,no more snacks at desks or short breaks.
Now as the week goes on I will oversee the changes in the building and your computers any questions please come and ask,thank you for your time now back to work ."
Jungkook had been loitering in the staff break room getting a coffee for himself as the meeting started. He had felt annoyance at first when the new man was saying they could be more efficient but then hearing what had been going on he felt more annoyed at himself and the others that he hadn't seen it going on.
His reverie was interrupted by the new man,Park Jimin wasn't it.
"Oh sorry sir,I just wanted a coffee but I can wait..."
"It's fine go ahead although isn't it a bit cheeky after telling them to take appropriate breaks?"
"You're right...but as I'm working tonight as well I need the caffeine."
"Working tonight,what here?"
"Yes,the upstairs offices are being painted,they could be used as is but a lick of paint never hurts,I used this crew in my previous job so I can help out show what needs to be done and keep things moving,maybe even get one office in situ as much done as in a short a time as possible. I've emailed you all information about the move and am going to bring around storage boxes for anything personnel to be put in from each office that box will be put in your new offices for you to put on show where you will."
"You have been busy but isn't it wrong to burn the candle at both ends it will affect your efficiency."
"It's a week I'm sure I'll manage..I best get on..."
"You haven't finished your coffee...?"
"I need to get on," Jimin washed his cup up putting it away,snagging his silver bracelet on the door causing it to break and drop to the floor.
"Damn." Jimin bent over displaying to Jungkook a damn fine booty.
Jungkook stared ,this male peaked his interest. Jimin looked at the bracelet sighing in relief when he realised it was just the catch that had come undone. He fiddled with it on his wrist trying to do it up when two larger hands took hold of the bracelet doing it up easily.
"What small hands you have," jungkook murmured looking down and holding onto them.
Jimin felt heat rush through his body at the contact pulling his hands back quickly.
"Er yer thanks...." He swiftly left the room Jungkooks eyes following him.Seemed like Mr Park wasn't as self possessed as he made out Jungkook smirked before going out to his office to see Jimin leaving it.
Going in there were two boxes sat on the floor. He raised his brows damn this man was organised . He took one packing awards and photographs in then the other he put his bonsai tree he'd been given years ago and a modern art statue given to him by his first ever signing .
He then went downstairs to help Hobi out with a new group unfamiliar to dance moves .
The day wore on,Jimin flitted around helping people with the online calendar explaining how it suggested alternatives when a conflict arose. The day was long but eventually staff left
Jimin sat in the staff room a sandwich and a coffee in front of him,forty minutes later security called to say the team were on their way up
Now the real work started
"Hey Jimin thanks for getting us the job "the manager said.
"Well I know you will be quick and good let me show you where to start."
Four hours later two of the offices were done looking clean with neutral colours,then four stayed painting while five came to do the furniture removals .
Jimin decided on Jungkooks and Jin's offices first.
Trolleys manoeuvred furniture into lifts a lot of pushing and pulling got things placed where Jimin wanted them.
Jimin smiled to himself as he surveyed Jungkooks room.it had a large corner window in so you could look out in two directions.Jimin had observed Jungkook liked to stand and stare out when he was thinking so he knew he'd like this view.
The walls were a light grey with white ceiling a white blind at the windows as well as the glass partition next to his door. Jimin had cleaned down the black bookshelves already in there and placed the desk nearby a black easy chair and small sofa were by the corner window with a black coffee table in front.
Jimin arranged Jungkooks books on the shelves the set about connecting the computers and phone checking to make sure they worked.
Next he set up the secretaries desk outside stretching tiredly but brushing it off as he placed a plant on there that had a lovely smile and a note saying welcome to your new home.
Jin's office took a little longer it was near Jungkooks but had one floor to ceiling window. Jin's room was pale blue he seemed to like pastel colours.
Pictures were hung on the walls as was a large mirror.He had a corner sofa in cream and a light oak coffee table.
His desk was large in the same wood and a bookcase lined an entire wall. His cream office chair was pushed under the desk and Jimin looked around nodding to himself.
Again the secretaries desk was set up and Jimin got a printer set up between the two offices.
By now two more offices had been painted but it was four in the morning,time to leave.
Saying they're goodbyes Jimin drove home dropping onto his bed jumping as the alarm rang two hours later.
Groaning he showered and dressed eating a slice of toast and having a glass of milk before he drove back to work to face another day.
