At 5am sharp my phone alarmed, signaling that its the start of a new day. I automatically got irritable because I am certainly not a morning person. Nevertheless I went downstairs prepared some coffee and toast, woke kay up and went to shower.

Dressed in a professional navy blue dress and a red pumps, I came downstairs to find Kay ready and waiting with her car keys in her hand. I drank the cup of coffee and had the toast while making my way out the door. On our way to work I asked if she wanted some time off she said 'no I'll be good'.

We arrived at the office 7:52, that means that we have eight minutes to settle down and 45minutes to prepare for Mr. Witherspoon to get here. Within 10minutes of our arrival Shelly and Mr Moore was on set already rehearsing for the rough draft. Tension was high in the room because apparently Shelly and Dwayne had known each other prior, and things did not end well.

Holding two cups of coffee I went over to them, 'Thank you both for showing up today and showing interest in our upcoming project. However, if you two continue to behave like kids I suggest you get your asses off my chairs and out this room! This is a business, not a bloody sandbox!'. Smiling I placed the tray down and I left them to simmer. I did not plan for these two to show their personal vendetta on my time.

Mr Witherspoon showed exactly 9am, and not a second later. Dressed in a Jeans pants and a polo shirt, he gave off a laid back kind of vybe. Briefly an introduction was done and we got done to business.
Scene one was showed and he was rather impressed. With a few minor adjustments here and there he was pleased with the selections.

He left and required an update within a week. We had a small meeting about the adjustments, Shelly was asking alot of unnecessary questions. She even went as far as to say we aren't paying her enough. I laughed and said 'you're right, you are 25, two kids, little experience and nobody knows you! You are been paid 500 per hour. I am now offering you 400. Take it or leave it!. 'What? Are you crazy?! you just lessened my pay!

"Oh yes I did, and I'm not afraid to go lower or send you home.' Kay interjected and stated that she'll handle things from here. I left for my office. I sighed and took out my water bottle. Getting upset all over again, I threw the bottle in the bin. Leanzo had gifted me that when we were in our courting process.

This was shaping out to be one crappy day. I phoned Jazz to clear my schedule and to give Kay a week off. Despite what's going on she needs a breath of fresh air. Hopefully she doesn't get mad at me for doing this.
