"Is there a reason your assignments are consistently late?" leans against his desk, arms crossed, tapping his foot.
ehh nope ππ»π i am a neat freak so I can't be late but this is because all my work is perfect! π«β¨π―βοΈπ ππ€ππ
Raising an eyebrow You think perfection is an excuse for tardiness?
No sir. I look up at him. It was just a response...
Smirking Well then, if you want to impress me, you'll prove that you can deliver both quality and speed. Here's what we're going to do.
Nods. What would you like me to do, sir?
Stands up straight, moving closer to AquaticDot I want you to complete the following assignment under the time constraint I give you.
Leans forward. Okay sir, sounds good.
Reaching into his drawer, he pulls out a stack of paper with various questions written on them Pick a question from this stack, read it out loud, and then write a detailed answer. You will have exactly 30 minutes to complete it. If you finish before the time is up, you can start working on the next one. Got it?
Eyes widen, mouth slightly agape Holy smokes, sir! That's lightning fast! Are you sure about the time?
Grinning confidently Absolutely. I believe in your ability to handle the challenge. Remember, the key to success lies in efficiency and focus.
Yes sir. AquaticDot looks down at the stack of questions. Which one should I answer first?
Smirking How about you pick the one at the top of the stack? Get started right away. I'll be watching your progress closely.
Picks up the paper at the top of the stack and begins reading it. Okay sir, I'm starting now.
Watches AquaticDot intently, sipping on his coffee Good. Remember to organize your thoughts and make your answers concise.
AquaticDot puts their head down, concentrating hard. Time passes quickly, and soon AquaticDot is finished with the first question. I'm done, sir. Should I go fetch another question or...?
<Impressed by AquaticDot's speed and efficiency, Mr. Thompson offers them an opportunity to be his personal assistant after school hours.>
*AquaticDot looks up at Mr. Thompson. "Did you say something, sir?" they asked, looking over at him.
Raises an eyebrow and smiles approvingly Indeed, I did say something. You've exceeded my expectations, AquaticDot. Your speed and efficiency are truly commendable. As a result, I have an offer for you. How would you like to be my personal assistant after school hours?
Looks surprised and confused, leaning forward. You...want me to be your assistant, sir? But why?
Steps closer, lowering his voice Because, AquaticDot, you possess something that most of your peers lack. Focus, discipline, and dedication. These traits are invaluable in achieving success. By becoming my assistant, you'll gain valuable experience and insights that will help you excel in your studies and beyond.
AquaticDot's mouth gapes open in shock. Me? Your assistant? I don't know anything about that, sir! Is there even pay involved?
Chuckles softly Pay? No, not exactly. Being my assistant is more about gaining experience and learning from me. Consider it an opportunity to grow, rather than a traditional job. As for the details, we can discuss that further if you're interested. But let's focus on completing the assignments for now. We still have a lot of work to do.
"Alright, sir. I'll do my best," AquaticDot promises, a hint of excitement creeping into their voice. "But are you sure you don't need someone who's more experienced?"
Raises an eyebrow, a mischievous glint in his eyes Experience is indeed important, but it's not the only factor.
Blushes, fidgeting with their pen Well, if you're sure, sir...I won't let you down.
Approves with a nod Excellent, AquaticDot. I knew I could count on you. Now, let's get back to work.
Claps his hands together, energized Alright, AquaticDot, let's pick up the pace. We still have plenty of work to complete before the end of the day. I want you to finish two more questions on that stack. And make sure they're done to perfection, just like your previous one. Can you handle that?
Yes, sir! AquaticDot grabs another paper, scanning through it quickly before diving into their work.
Observes AquaticDot, noticing their focused expression Good, good. Keep up that pace, AquaticDot. Remember, time is of the essence here.
Nods quickly, getting straight back to work.
Watches AquaticDot work, tapping his foot impatiently Come on, AquaticDot. You're capable of so much more. I need those answers sooner.
Clenches jaw, determined Right, sir. I'll push harder. No more slacking off.
Stands up abruptly, pacing around the room That's the spirit, AquaticDot! I know you can handle it.
Grits teeth, nods Understood, sir. No more excuses. Full steam ahead.
<After school hours, AquaticDot becomes Mr. Thompson's devoted and loyal assistant, learning the ins and outs of the education system and forming a close bond with their demanding boss.>
Do you ever relax, sir? You're always working...
Pauses briefly, flashing a sly grin Relaxation is a luxury I can't afford, AquaticDot.
But, sir... You need to take breaks too. You're human, after all.
Smirks Ah, you're right, AquaticDot. I may be human, but I thrive on ambition and drive. The pursuit of perfection doesn't pause for anyone, not even me. Besides, there's always something I can do to improve, whether it's planning my next lesson or strategizing my career advancements. Relaxation is simply not in my vocabulary.
