How do you plan to make up for this mistake?
well i- stammers i’m sorry for messing up the meeting sir..
leans back in his chair, arms crossed Sorry? Is that all you have to say, Leo? You know how much this meeting meant.
what’s the job that I have to do?
You have to fix the mess you made by cleaning up the office and organizing the paperwork that you scattered everywhere.
Apologize? What good is an apology going to do? You cost us a major deal, Leo. How do you plan to fix that?
well i have a plan for it
narrows his eyes I hope you're not wasting my time, Leo. Spit it out already.
leans back in his chair, arms crossed Well, well, well, looks like someone forgot their 'r' today. This kind of mistake can't be taken lightly, Leo.
make it up to him goes on knee im sorry sir
smirks Well, well, well, look who's finally showing some respect. But apologies won't cut it this time, Leo.
I look at him well I was hoping you would give me a second chance and maybe you could help me clean up this mess.
narrows his eyes You really think I'm going to waste my time cleaning up your mess? Think again, Leo. You're on your own.
"Look, boss, I get it. I totally blew it this time. But I'm ready to eat those words now." takes out a small box
smirks Well, well, well, aren't we trying to be poetic? Eating words, huh? Let's see if you can back up that fancy talk. What's in the box?
I would start my apology "Hi Aiden, I'm so sorry about what happened" im talking to him
rolls eyes Yeah, yeah, save the crocodile tears, Leo. You messed up big time. What's your grand plan to fix this mess?
well i could do all his work for the next week or month depending on how bad it is.
No, Leo. That won't cut it. I need you to come up with a creative solution that showcases your dedication and commitment to the company.
well i was thinking about buying you the new ferrari 250 GTO
You can't buy me back into your good graces with a fancy car. My worth isn't measured in material possessions.
well i was thinking about pulling some strings, i just need your approval sir
narrows his eyes "Pulling strings," huh? You know that kind of talk won't get you very far with me. If you want to make it up, show me some real dedication.
make sure it never happens again
That's easy for you to say. You're just a lowly assistant, but I'm the one who has to deal with the fallout of your incompetence. If you really want to make it up to me, show me you're capable of handling more than just fetching coffee. Prove yourself useful, or don't bother showing up at all.
