FRIENDS As I exited Barbara's office I was more confused than ever. Confused about myself, my life, my feelings toward Barbara. What the hell had just happened in there? How was it possible that after spending the morning humiliating me in front of several hundred DDE managers and supervisors, treating me like little more than a shiny new product the compan...
"What the hell is this Don? What do you think you're playing at?" Garvey, Don's boss, gazed humorlessly at him, his ebony black face slack and his hands quivering in what Don suspected was an angry wish to wring his neck. "Er, yeah, it's the press release Garvey. What seems to be the problem?" Don had believed he had done an adequate job typing it. Though...
About once a month the school where I work has a casual clothes day. There are rules about what the students can and can't wear. The rules are stricter for the girls than the boys but that's the way things are. It may not be politically correct, but it is common sense. Notwithstanding these rules, and the rather strict way the Headmistress interprets them,...
There is indeed an institute of higher education which served as a partial model for Locksmith University, as some readers may be able to guess. Nevertheless, there is precious little light and less truth about the university in this story. I must confess I have callously played with details of life in its engineering school for my own narrative purposes. An...
LaKeisha Jones could feel Lester Jackson's eyes roving all over the unshackled breasts that protruded beneath her tight T-shirt. As always, she could sense the twisted thoughts that ran around inside that greasy doo-rag-covered, nearly empty skull of his. Today Lester was merely fantasizing about chaining her to that urine stained mattress he kept back in h...
We had this odd case at work recently. I suppose you could call it sexual harassment of a sort, and I must admit that the manager in question could be a bit of a mongrel at times. One day he got an email and on opening it he found himself displaying a nice shot of someone's erection and balls. It was fairly obvious the picture came from the net somewhere. T...
Chapter 01: Stacy I smiled as I pushed open the heavy glass door to the open-air smoking courtyard, nodding my head towards one of the half-dozen plastic and steel tables crowding the patio space underneath the Plexiglas awning. There were maybe seven or eight of my coworkers taking up space on the benches or standing around the table, all friends of mine....
Thanks to 'Techsan' for editing this story. I left for the restaurant. As I entered the main dining area I was surprised to see Pam and Ray sitting there eating dinner. Pam smiled at me and said, "We may not be in the private dining area but we're as close as we could get." She mentioned, "A lot of the bosses are starting to leave. I haven't seen Nancy, E...
I've been doing the "online thing" for so many years it's hard to remember a time when I didn't. Chat rooms, bulletin boards, you name it. I thought I knew all the ins and outs, and frankly, I'd never had a problem with anyone I met in all that time. All these claims about "strangers" online seemed silly to me. This was a community, no different from my own...
Tony Trent was a great boss. He paid well but expected you to earn your pay, and Kim and Heather never let him down. As legal secretaries went, they were about the best he'd ever had in his employ, always anticipating his needs, and seeing that everything was in it's proper place. The only problem Tony had with these girls was the way they liked to dress, of...
