The Secretary

At one law firm that I worked at, the secretary that sat next to my cubicle was in her boss' office. The door was closed while they were in there together.

20 minutes or so later, she comes out of her boss' office. Her hair is a mess, and she's trying to fix it and her clothes by smoothing her hands over them and patting her hair down. She goes into her cubicle and grabs her handbag off of the floor and says, "Oh, I've got to go to the bathroom." Then she staggered off to the bathroom.

That day, I learned why she didn't have to do much work, talked on the phone as often as she liked, got to make her own hours and come and go as she pleased. She was working directly for one of the two partners in a small law firm of eight lawyers, and apparently, she was good at her job.

Got that one beat-our office prostitute eventually became the general manager-thankfully after I left. P.S. She buried the company. Guess she should have stuck with what she knew how to do best ;)

LOL! We had one at our office who got pregnant by the boss but then denied it was his but promptly left the company...actions spoke louder than words in this case. Thing is tho...he didn't leave, SHE did. Kind of sad she got exiled like that.
