"he's my uncle."

"our boss? he's your uncle?"

"but hold up, what else did he say?"

"that my mom made him hire me. so the reason i pretty much have this job is because of her."

"but did you actually get fired though."

"nah, i still have the job."

"oh thank goodness."

"is everything alright?"

"michael said he was going to move cubicles to be closer to me and i got freaked out. he sounded like a perv!"

"i think so, i'm pretty sure i saw them making out in the break room."

"ooh, scandalous! any more rumors, lukey?"

"yeah. y'know that guy across from my desk, chad?"

"what about him?"

"i shouldn't be saying this, but he told me that sarah made a move on calum and michael threatened to beat her up."
