so, it's your last day?

yes, my agency said the receptionist comes back on monday.

everything been going ok?

yeah, once they figured out i was supposed to be here! the first day, i was sitting on the couch in the lobby for the longest. this phone kept ringing, but nobody realized i was supposed to be the one to answer it!

sorry bout that. but it's kinda par for the course around here, if you haven't noticed.

well, you know i don't mind. i get paid either way. apparently, the receptionist sent an email to the boss at 5:30 the day before she left telling him that she was going to be out and that she had arranged for a temp. but for some reason he didn't get it until the next day, after lunch.

that would actually make sense.

is he usually out at meetings all morning?

he's certainly usually out all morning.
