I was still trying to come to grips with what had just taken place in old man Johnson's office, but my thoughts were broken up by the my office door shutting. I looked up expecting Thomas to be standing there smile and wanting to know all the details of what I did to the old perverse down the hall but instead it was Mrs. Carmichael. We didn't really work together much within the office but she is in our monthly board meetings and I knew by the look on her face that she was not pleased by my attire this morning.
She went off for about ten minutes on how my attire was inappropriate for so many reasons. I was showing too much skin, my skirt was too short, my bra was too visible through my blouse, that was also unbuttoned too low. She said the entire meeting every guy at the table was staring at me and that if she was me, she would feel completely embarrassed to have been such a distraction in a professional meeting like that. All I could do was sit there and listen to her nodding as if I agreed with her and apologized for my actions. I wanted to apologize and tell her it would never happen again, but I wasn't even planning on doing this the first time so how could I promise not to do it again?
She finally aired out everything she needed to say, or at least everything she had to say for now, then stormed back out of the room. I sat there befuddled trying to figure out my next move. I may have just gained a helpful ally in Mr. Johnson but now I had created an adversary in. Mrs. Carmichael.
