POWER OF LOVE

Private Meeting

               Why would I be asked to come to her office?, Liz said when she went out of Vic’s office. She had to force herself to work on some paper works. Being the Head Trainer is not a field day but it sure is satisfying when you inspire trainees, people to be better and explore on many things especially the English language, its background, the culture, the people and the vibe. BPO industries don’t really jive with normal work hours and regular crowd. But extraordinary work pace, loads and multi-tasks with unique blends of agents or workforce. It’s amazing, exciting and a learning experience every day. Though work can be repetitive, one can make use of it and make a change when necessary. It’s about the thrill of a ride and the amazing emotions you feel when you’re on the phone talking to different types of people selling, chatting, explaining or comforting them as clients and friends in the end or every conversation. We make it a point that every call is a good and satisfying call. An excellent customer service is doing the extra mile every time. Sometimes we over look things, and we find ourselves realizing that what really matters is we touch a person’s heart, mind and soul, why I wanted to become a trainer, partner in business and a leader who changes games and not watch them change in front of my eyes. Vic and I share the same thoughts and beliefs on game plans and changes. We play hard but play hard too. We don’t want chances or opportunities pass by but be there when it comes and we strike when the iron is hot. However, Vic being that smart has the edge from my critical and demanding tastes. She never hesitated and went on to do her thing and won. I, on the other hand, failed on my attempt to have my own company due to a break up with my former boyfriend who was my partner in the business, Danny, and I know you’ve already met the prick. An d so I ended up working with my all time rival in high school and now my boss. I know she had a crush on me, but little did she know that I admire her being smart and hate her guts for standing against bullies and me coming on to her. Plus she also didn’t know that I secretly fell in love with her that time when I dared her to kiss me and called her disgusting. Because I was the one who was really crazy about her. I was the one who wanted to do things, s****l things because I like her and I love her making me smile, feel sexy and more over challenge me to defeat her with her own game. But I always ended up losing so I accepted the partnership until Jhonny fully recovers from his bad dealing with clients at work, the first company I joined him on, Summerset Incorporated, a corporation that handles clothing lines, watches, shoes, cars and all sort of awesome products people can buy online. It has online apps that we manage and Jhonny wasn’t able to handle the bulk of sales and all, so I helped him and took over his job. He resigned and became head of sales here in Victory Solutions. However, he needed to tie some loose ends with Summerset and have me take over his job as partner and head trainer for sales and communications. It’s not an easy job believe me but it pays damn well like my Porche, condominium and my mom’s health care since she needed to be out in a home for her cancer. I didn’t want the job but Jhonny insisted so I made a deal with Summerset to help them still but I do the work online and then I accepted Vic’s offer and have my own office with them. So now Jhonny gave up on this job and stayed with Summerset. I didn’t have a choice much either for he really needed to care for his pregnant wife, so he didn’t want any more stress and hassles as an upcoming dad. I will miss that son of b*tch for handing me a totally hard job and to top it all, working with Victory. I know I am weird and inconsiderate but how can I work with someone I secretly love, so much I can’t even stand close to her I’ll faint just by seeing her or themere of being close with her. I hater her ever since but that hate turned into love when I dared her to kiss me and when she did she blew me away. I never got over that kiss and until now I crave for that and why I always tease Vic to even chat or look at me. I’m so hopeless, haaay!, but I love her and I can’t run from it now, I can’t turn my back from her now. When I see Vic she seemed sad or always wanting to be alone. She’s been a loner or quite the moody type since high school but when I was with her then she changed. She was happy and cool, smart and witty. But when I embarrassed her in front of our classmates in our high school dance, everything changed and she hated me ever since. Now I hope she has already forgiven me. But the old flame has sparked and I don’t know if I can contain the fire that’s keeping me in heat all the time and driving me insane because I desire for her and want her more than anyone else in the world…. And I…..Liz almost jumped still thinking of Vic when the devil paged her to come to her office and pronto!!!

               I I stood and breathed hard then walked demurely towards Vic’s office. It is just next to mine so with the black glass windows she has I don’t know whether she can see me or even check up on me since all of our office walls are made out of dark glass. Liz is indeed right. Vic built these glass windows and walls where security cameras see everything so no one especially in the Training team can sneak out or invite anyone to make out with. It’s been rumoured that BPO companies condone illicit affairs and that agents or employees can have s*x in bathrooms or work stations and even the sleeping quarters, which is not true and a stain on call canter people’s pride. We work hard on our skills and tasks. It isn’t that easy to get accepted in this kind of job but when you do, it’s a wonderful and fun experience.

               Getting back to Vic, okay I’m on my way to her office. Knocked on the door. She let me in and Sherrie, her long time best friend works late too, but she asked her to leave now and the woman giving me a coffee obliged. She said her goodbyes and I was left alone with Victory. Vic was still on her laptop and was typing stuff and then she closed the top, looked at me, smiled….

               So, Liz, how was your time working with us? Vic asked very relaxed.

               Aha, she begged me, okay not beg, to come here just to ask me how I feel about working with her and her company? Hmmm, something’s off, what is she planning now? What’s her game plan on me, now? I said in my mind but answered her casually… Oh!, It is a wonderful experience for me to have accepted the offer as Head Trainer and Marketing Sales Officer, I am very pleased you have chosen me amongst others. (Nailed it! Hehe!)

               Then can I ask what are the things you like about us, or our company? Vic continued.

               Is this an interrogation, a hot seat, a question and answer portion on the game?, I added thinking that Vic is playing around now….Well, I love your companies food, the cafeteria with a humanoid is interesting. I love your staff and your building and yo….your giving me attention and time to ask me this question now! ( again, almost topped it but slightly about to declare my love for her and I will not lose!)
