Chapter 348: Reiner - Knight
Not surprisingly, all four new secretaries were all women. I looked around at the excited faces of the other young women and wondered if I had the exact same look on my face.
“Great. We’re all here. Thank you for being on time. Needless to say, as part of the secretarial staff, we are expected to do everything on time. Well now this is the moment that you’ve all been waiting for. Who will be your partner manager? In other words, who’s going to be your boss?” the woman said animatedly.
Her hand then flipped over the board that she was holding to reveal a simple table with two columns that was printed on the other side of the board. The first column was the secretary’s name and the second was the manager’s name.
I wasn’t told anything about this before and so I had no idea and was very surprised when I saw all ‘names’ in the managers’ column were all codenames. Maybe it was my fault for overlooking the details. Since King was also a codename, I should have expected other managers at his company to operate under a codename as well.
Still, what’s the point of knowing just the code name of your boss if you don’t even know who the person is?
I looked at the codename of the manager that was on the same row as my name. So, this guy’s, I assume he’s a guy, codename is Knight. Great. Just like chess pieces. I wondered for a while if that was intentional and soon decided that it probably was.
“Excuse me but...when do we get to meet our boss?” I asked.
I pray that I’ll get along with this Knight person. I’m going to work so hard to please him and make sure that I support him in everyway possible. I’m going the become the best secretary in the world!
“Tomorrow I will personally lead all of you to your manager’s office. So, meet me at the secretarial department at the start of the day and I’ll take you from there. Anyone not sure where the secretarial department is?” the woman asked.
