It's 13:50 now. I haven't seen him since 12:00

They got to him first.

 

[livestOne]

It's 13:50 now. I haven't seen him since 12:00

Hes obviously out doing important things that are pertinent to the businesses growth, its a managerial thing you wouldnt understand of course

 

[Shmuppers]

This is feeling more and more like the prelude to an Ace Attorney case. Would your boss happen to be Larry Butz?

 

[robotzombie]

i think the op is skipping the part where he called the guy a twot

 

[jesu]

I take it the guys have arrived?

 

[FullMetaltech]

So is OP ok?

 

[RandyBobandy]

Im ok guys. Don't think they're showing. Have his number still

 

[Triggerhappytel]

What's going on OP? If he's looking for someone called Tanya and he's angry and in the company of friends, I'm guessing his girlfriend has lied to him and told her she works there when she doesn't. Is she out playing around? Is she really an escort and this job is her cover? Or something entirely different involving your dodgy boss? Very weird situation. Nonetheless, be sure to let you boss or company manager know what's happened and that the guy sounded angry and threatened to come to the office. Just in case any shit does go down.

Don't let your guard down. That is what THEY want.

These questions answered and more on the next episode of Days of our Lives.

- Guy called asking for Tanya and some other broad I've never heard. Sorry, I've never heard of them I tell him him

are you from the 1930s?

 

[Oppo]

You weren't threatened. And you didn't almost die in an elevator.

Goddamn it

You owe me half a breakfast burrito

 

[Josh with a J]

What kind of kung-fu are you trained in?

 

[jesu]

are you from the 1930s?

OP waiting for the phone to ring again

 

[mre]

Im ok guys. Don't think they're showing. Have his number still

Shit, now I'm kind of worried about him. Can you call him to see if everything's all right?

 

[RionaaM]

"When something smells, it's usually the Butz." Maybe OP's manager was trying to pick a girl named Tanya up, and she was the girlfriend of some mafia boss or something.

 

[phaonaut]

Shit, now I'm kind of worried about him. Can you call him to see if everything's all right?

Yeh call him back and ask to speak to Tanya.

 

[Scoot2005]

Bobandy. Time to take your pants off.

 

[Farslain]

If you fancy winding him up a bit more PM me his number i'll call him up as Tanya.

 

[Scuderia]

Eh, surely if they do show up they will see there really is no Tanya there and go back home?

 

[LilZippa]

Your boss is getting busy with Tanya and her pimp wants her back. It is the only logical conclusion.

 

[Professor Lich]

He can't do anything to you if you're on fire.

 

[IISANDERII]

Have your camera phone at the ready.

And take some photos of your surroundings now and post them. Let us get a sense of the danger.

 

[dark_chris]

If he comes with a group, shoot first, ask questions later. =p

 

[Alienous]

Yeh call him back and ask to speak to Tanya.

Hahaha.

 

[ferr]

why don't you just admit there actually is a Tanya there.

 

[crowphoenix]

are you from the 1930s?

This is the Neo and Gaf Detective Agency. You a broad or a gent, Mack? Cause I need a stiff one and a leggie one to get me through this day.

 

[Anoregon]

why don't you just admit there actually is a Tanya there.

Seriously I don't understand why OP was being so weird about Tanya, is he covering for her or something?

 

[RandyBobandy]

Sorry was dealing with job interviews here

No lie, manager walks in with half his shirt sticking out. I tell him about Tanya guy, he asked for the number and said don't worry about it.

There is bo lady with a T in her name here. Just an Aoife. She's off sick though

Half his shirt... sticking out? Huh?

The only thing I can think of is that the boss was fucking Tanya. Was his hair all fucked up too?

 

[uncredited male]

I think it is now safe to assume this is not an uncommon occurrence for your office OP.

Time to contingency plan.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Never trust a woman named Tanya

 

[Valravn]

Maybe its of your colleagues who gave him a false name?

 

[crowphoenix]

Tanya Aoife was her name. Dynamite in a red dress that could blow your mind with a wink. I'd seen the type before. All pretty smiles and sob stories. Only Came to guys like me when they pushed the angle too far and the guy got wise. It was never a good job to take. Best case, she was playing me; worst case some guy with a chip on his shoulder would call and threaten to make a scene.

Luckily, I can play the game too. I'd just tell him she weren't here. Let him come to me. Cigarette smoke wouldn't be the only thing in the air if he did.

 

[Byakuya769]

Did he say, "How big' a boy are ya?" Might just be Roy D Mercer.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

You are the only person there.

Dude walks into your office and realizes you were telling the truth the whole time. Walks out embarrassed.

 

[TheOohChild]

maybe your boss was taking an outdoor shit

 

[Shanlei91]

Im ok guys. Don't think they're showing. Have his number still

You should call him back. Just to incite drama.

maybe your boss was taking an outdoor shit

Or out partying with Tanya.

Fantastic. Please keep this story coming!

 

[Alligatorjandro]

How do you say Aoife

 

[Ace Harding]

I think it is now safe to assume this is not an uncommon occurrence for your office OP.

Time to contingency plan.

AKA find a new job.

 

[Winter John]

I think it's pronounced as Effie. I remember we had a Nigerian girl who had a similar name

 

[RandyBobandy]

How do you say Aoife

Ee-fa

 

[Herr K]

I think it's pronounced as Effie. I remember we had a Nigerian girl who had a similar name

what? how did you acquire a nigerian girl, broad?

 

[FreeMufasa]

They'll probably be waiting for u in the car park. Don't get your ass shanked for a job. Either meet them day time or call police

 

[crowphoenix]

We always kept the lights low. Made a nice, quiet spot in the corner. Good for a nap; better for a place to stand. I had a view of the darkened parking lot from where I stood.

Aoife hadn't been lying. Not about the phone call at least. Boss wanted me to work 'em up, get 'em mad, make 'em dumb. Then he took that loaded bombshell by the hand and went out for a drive. Keep her safe, he'd said.

It's been an hour and the goons were a no-show. I was getting bored and edgy. My feet hurt.

So when a car pulled up, headlights slicing through the dark like a knife through cloth, I tensed and my hand unconsciously went for the bit of spine I kept in my jacket. The .44 was cool to the touch, but my spine didn't need the help.

The boss stepped out. His shirt half tucked, tie crooked, and hair mussed, and At that moment, I wasn't sure I was the only one to have been made dumb.

Yeah this sounds shady as hell. Be on super alert when you leave.

 

[vagabondarts]

I LOL-ed

OP they are gonna open up a can

 

[Ramrock]

So I do admin stuff at an office. Even taking calls and what not

So I get this call from a pretty pissed off guy and it pretty much went like this;

- Guy called asking for Tanya and some other broad I've never heard. Sorry, I've never heard of them I tell him him

"I think you have, put them on the phone, now"

Then I tell him I've literally never heard of them and no one with those names works here

"Don't lie to me, put them on"

I'm the only one here btw. Since manager went out. I asked him if he was sure he had the right number then he tells me the name of the company I work for. I told him that's the one, then he says do you do call center work do and I tell him we do, so he says put them on or he's coming up.

I told him to come up all he wants there's no one here of that works here, then he kinda said something to another guy with him and said I'm on my way and slammed the phone

He's coming from a place called Duleek probably with someone else and I'm alone in the office. Wtf do I do here lol. Don't know he's do pissy about

Duleek? Ireland??
