As I hurry graciously to get to the top floor of the magnificent building irritation comes over me.
Great 25 years of not being late going down the drain
I mean I'll be honest I'm not always bright and early. God no I wish mornings never existed. But being an adult means putting your likes and dislikes aside.
I realized that a long time ago
Anyways the extravagant elevator doors seem to open right when I was giving up hope.
I quickly step in and press the top button.
Ugh I think I'm going to be sick.
No you can't back down now.
It took you 12 years to get hear yeah I'm including the 3 hell schools before the university I went too to.
I had been looking for a job that fit my profile.
Classy
Permanent
Well paid
Well the first one is a lie. But still after I graduated early at the top of my classes I thought life would be kind to me boy was I wrong.
I rush into the lobby that seems to be even more beautiful than the one downstairs. Man this guy must really love beauty and perfection. After admiring the attire of the place and seeing how well everything went together I soon realised that I had been walking without really paying attention to where I was going and came to that realization when I had tripped over a rug.
Great .
Since I am 5'9. Not typically tall but tall enough that I am looking down at everyone i meet. Especially men sadly but anyway being 5'9 didn't help the fact that I was wearing a black dress that screamed formal but also sexy. It came right above my knee and showed off the little curves I do have. What didn't help was that the dress was flowing at the bottom and went up when I fell.
Embarrassed I quickly tried to recollect myself but failed
Jesus what is up with me this morning
First I realize that everyone in here was a woman who was outstandingly beautiful with blonde hair in a tight ponytail and makeup that was perfect. They all even wore one color. Red. Which didn't boost my confidence at all.
And to make matters worse my dress was shorter than theirs and showed some skin but whatever
They all even seemed to snicker at me as I had came into the building
I could care less about what people thought of me though.
But as a whole what made it impossibly worse was the woman that came up to me.
"You must be Ms.Wright, a pleasure to meet you" she says while helping me up. "As to you too" I say my manners instantly kicking in.
"I am the woman in charge of this floor and the woman who's job you are applying for. I would appreciate if you would so some grace and pull your dress down as to stop flashing everyone your undergarments.". She says sweetly but with a hint of rudeness.
I immediately look down and realize that my lingerie had been on full view the whole time. Quickly I pulled my dress down. I started mumbling a few words but ended up almost tripping again in the process. How I don't know.
My one time to really show everyone that I deserve this position and I'm blowing it. Great.
Hello one bedroom apartment
She looks at me with disapproval and says that she'll notify Mr.Right the Big Boss that I am here and to make myself feel at home before walking without a step out of place to her desk.

"Ms.Wright, Mr.Right will see you now" the beautiful blonde says to me with a hint of amusement.
"Thank you so much for your help" I say seeming as though I have to be the bigger person in the situation.
I mean sure me and Mr.Right have technically speaking the same last name and sure I came here looking like a mess when I am usually on top of my game. But that does not give her the right to mock me.
Oh who am I kidding
If I was a beautiful blonde with the perfect body and had the job as being the head of a floor technically assistant. The top floor to be exact. I would do the same.
But i am not.
I'm just plain old me
Minnie's Almay Wright
Yes that's my name unfortunately. But that story is for another day.
I quickly stand up and make sure nothing is out of place for some reason I check my waist length wavy hair that is a mixture of red blonde and brown a weird combination I know but I was born with it.
Standing outside of Mr.Right's door doubt instantly comes over me. Quickly I shake it off. I mean how bad could it be his name sounds promising enough.
But all hopes went don't the drain once I knocked on the large double door and a deep voice told me to come in.
As soon as I stepped in I new I was fucked.
Sitting in the chair was a man seeming to be in his late twenties or early thirties.
"Are you going to just stay there all day? Because if you are, your holding the door just turn around and leave" he says coldly.
Could this day get any worse?
Shuffling inside his office and shutting the door quietly I soon realized my mistake.
Everyone knows that once you ask that question everything goes to hell
Boy was I right
