When I returned to the office, my boss called me. The first thought was that one of the clients told him about us and what we were doing. I was terribly scared and began to worry about this.
“This is it. Now I’ll be fired from work and perhaps they will shame me. Why did I follow their lead?” I thought on the way to my boss's office. Damn inability to say ‘No!’
Approaching the door, I knocked softly.
“Come in.” I heard a confident male voice from the other side of the door.
“May I?” Timidly, I asked, opening the door. And my heart was beating so hard that it seemed to jump out of my chest now.
“Yes of course. And it's you. Come on in.” Smiling, said my boss when he saw me.
“Well, if he smiles, then it's not so bad.” I thought happily and entered the office. The heart in my chest began to calm down slowly.
“You know, recently, good reviews have begun to come in relation to our agency. Customers give especially good reviews when they talk about you, and everyone demands that you make the delivery.” Said the chief still with a smile.
“I don’t know what and how you do it, but you’re just smart. People like you, and that's the most important thing. This plays into our hands, because we are increasing the volume of work, and, accordingly, the profit.” He continued.
From this monologue, I completely calmed down and stood smiling silently. Now I calmly listened to my boss. Thank God, it seems to have passed. There was no need to worry.
“I would like to thank you for your work and also say that from today your salary will be significantly increased.” He said in a semi-formal tone.
“Thank you.” I could only say. Wow, the money was sticking to me now, although I did not specifically look for it. I got this job to earn some money, only so that there would be something in my pocket. I am not one of those who are chasing expensive clothes or dreaming of buying an apartment in the center of Moscow, I am a realist. That is why I work as a courier, and not as some kind of manager in a showroom.
“It's my pleasure. Thank you so much! Yes, and I have a personal request for you. We have a very special client who pays well for our services. So, during the week he should receive a package. I would like you to deliver it to him. Well, do you agree?” He asked and looked intently. Goosebumps ran from his gaze.
