It was monday morning. I woke up very early
as usual to prepare breakfast, had my bath
and prepared for work. As my manager wasn't
around, I took enough time to do some tidings
and was eventually late to work as a result.
I got to work by 8:30am, I met the factory
workers and the packaging boys at the
production room. I waved at them as I passed
by with my folder in my hand and one of the
boys said "oga, e be like say you get visitor
oooo". "Really?, who is the person? And where
is he?" I replied the boy, and he said "oga, na
lady ooo, she don sit down for your table". I
replied "ok, thank you. I wasn't sure who the
visitor was until I walked to the table and met
my lovely lolade sitted at the visitors seat
infront of my table.
LOLADE: **smiled*** good morning sir!
ME: **smiled too** my wife, good morning.
LOLADE: ha sir!. Your wife kee?, you want to
put me into trouble sir
ME:*** pats her shoulder as I walked down to
my seat*** which trouble dear?
LOLADE: you know I'm just new here sir "e ma
je ki won so mi lenu oooo" I don't want to be
implicated.
ME: you are funny dear.
LOLADE: **smiled**
ME: yes!!!, Manager called me this morning
that he won't be around today and tomorrow,
so he told me to tell you that you should wait
till wednesday when he would arrive so that
you can obtain your guarantor and referee's
form and also process your ID card.
LOLADE: ok sir.
ME: alrite, I will give you a 60leaves note now.
And I will attach you to the driver whom you
will be working with. You are expected to
make a record of all daily sales inside the
note and indicate the dates everyday. The note
will contain the number of packs loaded before
leaving every morning, number of sales, credit
purchase from customers, and number of
packs returned in the evening if you couldn't
sell all.
LOLADE: ** stared at me in silence***
ME: ***raised up my head and noticed her***
ololade, what is the problem?, why are you
silent?
LOLADE: sir!, I don't understand any of your
explanations, I don't know how to go about it.
ME: haaaa!!!, so if my manager was to be the
one telling you all these, you would tell him
that you have no idea?, and you would inturn
implicated me for telling him that you had
pure water sales experience?.
LOLADE: **faced down and sad*** I'm sorry
sir.
ME: **stood up from my seat and walked to
meet her and placed my hand on her back***
its ok my dear, you don't have to be sad. I
understand that you don't have any
experience, that's why I gave you the cv over
the weekend to study it through.
LOLADE: I did sir,
ME: ok dear, its ok, my manager's absence is
really a blessing in disguise. I will seize the
opportunity of his two days Absence to train
you on so many things, so that you won't
Bleep up and disappoint me when he returns
LOLADE: ok sir.
ME: it means you will have to wait for few
minutes after closing so that I can have
chance to put you through the steps and
procedures.
LOLADE: ok sir.
I drew a table chart inside the note and
explain few things to her about it. I told her to
always report to me at the end of the day for
assessment and accounting. She left and I
was looking at her swinging Bottom through
her small pant skirt. I attached her to the new
driver, I told one of the other sales rep to go
with them so as to introduce them to the new
market and they drove off after packing packs
of water into the new van.
"Chaii, onihaxy, you get sense ooo"
"See as you tell her to wait after closing and
she gree".
After their departure. I told all the factory boys
to go home at exactly 5pm to rest for the day
instead of the regular 6pm. They were so
happy and joyous. I told the other sales reps
that they should all return before 5pm so as
to attend to them on time because I must
leave by 5pm. They were also happy because
they would be leaving an hour earlier.
It was 5pm in the evening, the boys had
closed for the day as instructed earlier, I went
through the records of the other 4 sales
representatives and collect money from them
and I was through by 5:20pm and they left. At
5:45pm, lolade arrived with the new driver and
the person I sent to assist them. I dismissed
the driver and the other lady immediately and
I told lolade to wait behind for me to go
through her sales records.
When I noticed that others had left, I took the
spare key of my manager's office and I told
lolade to come inside with so that I can go
through a sales for the day and also train her
on what she needs to know, she nodded and
smiled at me as we both walked inside the
office and I locked the door from inside.
