[color=fff79a]“Welcome to the real world Hildr. This is the backbone of most jobs,”[/color] Boss said without even looking up from her own paperwork. No, it wasn’t glamorous or ideal in any sense. But it did pay the bills and put food on the table, for the most part. Heaven forbid they start to rant about the actual pay grade lest they be heard by another staff member. Or worse; a student.

[color=fff79a]“And with your degree in languages, I doubt you’d get much else from a smaller school either,”[/color] Boss added; this time, she did look up with a raised eye. [color=fff79a]“You would just be complaining about not reaching your full potential or that you could be doing so much more. Or something along those lines. I know this because you’ve already done so. Multiple times.”[/color]

That being said, Boss went right back into the throes of her work, unswayed by the desk rumbling beneath. [color=fff79a]“If you break that, you have to pay for it,”[/color] she reminded Hildr, moving her pen to and fro against the papers. [color=fff79a]“And I don’t want another reason for you to complain during work hours so try to make sure your head is a soft as your work performance here.”[/color]

Back outside in the hallways, Dana was caught between tilting her head and outright snickering at Rufie’s threats to her. [color=f7941d]“Aww come on Rufie, lighten up! Oh ho, it was just a prank bro! No one eveeeer gets hurt in pran-e-eh?”[/color] A cross between a glare and a look of panic painted her features but it was mostly a glower that aimed itself at Rufie.

Blake’s remarks and actions were not helping and she was tempted to smack the both. She didn’t need to though; her glare alone said measures of what she thought of such a proposal. [color=f7941d]“Pfft. Always a kill joy, Rufie,”[/color] she said as the trio of girls entered the cafeteria at last. As the other two went about getting their food, Dana chose the nearest thing that resembled fish-tuna casserole or something-before heading to their table. Blake’s antics earned her a sighing wink from Dana, but the repercussions of being in the same bad as her still had her shuddering.
