"Glad you could make it Mr. Cooper, name is Jennifer Ryan." Eli had been 2 hours late for the interview. She, his forever life saving wife Missy, was finally able to locate his car keys. Her hands now bared the harsh blisters of one hour of digging. Through piercing cold snow that had blanketed their front lawn she had searched in vein until she had found them. This was not the first nor the last time that she would be his saviour. If only he could have saved himself from himself things might have ended differently. But we are getting ahead ourselves... Mrs. Jennifer Ryan was the Human resources director for Sub-prime Mortgage Industries. She was married with three repulsive looking daughters. Atleast that's what Eli had determined from the family photo apon her desk of which Eli now sat across. Each in a light blue shirt with their ghastly faces turned slightly to the right.Erase them from your mind Eli. Time to focus. Act professional. Turn on the charm. "I'd again like to apologize for being late today Mrs Ryan....let me assure you that tardiness is not a trait that I had wished to exhibit as a first impression." He had thought of that line on course to the interview...was it too much? "No need for apologies Eli.." she had referred to him by first name, trying to be personable, "again I am glad that you were able to make it....now, unfortunatley we do not have much time however...so let's get started....I was reviewing your resume.. I see that you have no experience within the Mortgage Industry?" "Yes, that would be correct.." he reluctantly answered. "Okay,.." with a slight frown.."do you have any knowledge of the mortgage business?" she asks in a almost degrading tone. "Well...I,uh...um, no..no,not exactly.....I have a mortgage?!" ****** dumb Eli, Idiot. "Okay?.." she starts yet again, he sensing her amusement...the humor of his stupidity. "well that is alright Eli,...at this time we are seeking to hire and train new processors.. so we will be offering extensive training classes.....I see here that your mother in law is Rhonda Gleeson....is that right" "Yes, I've been married to her daughter for almost a year now.... do you know her well?" he asks "Of course,..Rhonda's practically my boss.." she replies knowing that she may have disclosed a little too much. Ten more minutes of the standard Q & A follows and then "Well, Eli...I believe that I've gone over everything....I guess there's only one last thing to ask....when can you start?" Dumbfounded he spats "Right away!...why....why thank you Mrs. Ryan..my wife is going to be thrilled.....and I have to admit...so am I...this is great news!....thank you" "Oh no, thank you Eli...we are quite needing for someone to start immediatley. Now if you will just sign these papers for me I will call and schedule your drug screening.." "Ah, drug screening?" Drug screening. Indeed one thing that Eli was not prepared for.
(sorry, I had to rush throught this....not much time at my disposal...just wanted to get something out there...to continue on with the Processor...don't believe it's my best but rest assured...it will get better!..)
