He got himself a secretary.
He says it's because I'm not around in the office when he needs me and so he got someone to help him out. Of course I'd rolled my eyes at that. He doesn't need help, he needs to stop being lazy. He's good at what he does, but he doesn't like admin at all. He prefers to deal with certain things and leave the others for us to deal with.
He's also got tons of other employees who are able to help him out when I'm not around, so I know he was just being petty by saying that.
I like Emily though, she is good at her job. She doesn't have much experience in the accounting industry but she covers the administrative side of things almost to perfection.
One other thing that's hard to miss about her is that she's good looking, too good looking. So good looking I know they're fucking because Jake is well - Jake.
His stupid attempt at the relationship thing failed miserably and I know he's back at seeking comfort in other ways. His favorite ways. The 'girlfriend' never stood a chance against his ways.
I don't even know what he was doing trying to get tied down, he's Jake for god's sake. No one should ever suffer through being his girlfriend.
"Hi Em, is he in?" I ask already opening the door slightly to peep inside.
"I think he's on a conference call.."
"You already let yourself in Mia, why bother asking. Come in..."
They say at the same time and I just shrug and open the door wider to let myself in. He didn't need to be sarcastic.
"Hi boss." I say to him with a smile but I'm met with silence. He's in a bad mood. I roll my eyes because he's never not.
"I don't have all day Mia."
"Uhm. I wanted to quickly chat with you about something." I start thinking of the right way to go about this but,
"Yes..." he says impatiently not bothering to look up from his desk .
"Well I wanted to hand this over to you." I say giving him a brown envelop and only now he decides to raise his head slightly to look at it. He then furrows his eyebrows in confusion and I continue,
"It's a resignation letter."
I've thought about this for too long. I think this is the right path for me.
"Mia if this is about you not coming into the office everyday, that was a joke." I smile a bit when he starts freaking out. Aww.
But that's not why I'm resigning so,
"It's not that. I know you were just being ridiculous and unnecessary."
"Watch it."
I chuckle a bit. And then,
"I'm resigning because I need to follow my dream. I've finally been giving the opportunity to and I'm going to take it."
It took me a while before deciding to do this but I've decided it's absolutely necessary. For my happiness.
The opportunity I'm referring to is not the literal opportunity to get into that field, but rather an opportunity to drop everything to be able to focus on getting into that field.
Not a lot of people can say they are able to do that. Not a lot of people get the opportunity to never have to work a day in their life again. I feel beyond blessed.
I still want to work though, I just want to do what I love. My job was always so I could earn a salary and thus earn a living. I worked because I had to despite being really good at my job.
