whispered, "What's with Mr. Boss Man today?". Trish just shrugged again and whispered back, "I've no idea...he even offered me coffee!".
"What!? Okay, is the Apocalypse over my shoulder or something? Wait, no. I'll bet Hell is freezing over and so he's enjoying the fact that it will be the same temperature as he is; cold." Sam and Trish snickered like school girls for a few seconds before the meeting got started.
"So! As some of you have noticed already, I'm in a particularly good mood today. This morning I just sealed the deal with a new client; Angel Inc." The boss man looked around the room, a smile on his lips, expecting everyone to be rejoicing at the good news, but all he got were 5 blank looks.
Something stirred in the back of Trish's mind; like something she should remember but couldn't. This may not seem like a cause for concern, but she usually remembers everything, and this not-quite remembered event was BIG.
Mistaking her look of confusion, the boss sighed and tried again. "Don't tell me you haven't heard of Angel Inc. It's only the largest supermodel/acting company in the world!" At those words, 3/5 of the employees perked up a bit, while the two already taken weren't quite so excited.
"What exactly can we provide that they don't already have?" Trish looked over at the speaker, Tom, and nodded in agreement. Their company provided opportunities to aspiring models and actresses, while their brother company dealt with the male side of those affairs. They were sort of a mini-mini Angel Inc.; there was no imaginable reason they would want or need their help with anything. The only reason Trish and her co-workers had a job was because Angel Inc. was extremely exclusive and dealt with maybe 20 beauties at once.
