Victor Steele: eyes narrowed New haircut? You got time for that? 😏
"I'm sorry sir I didn't mean to upset you..." She looked nervous.
Victor's gaze remains intense, his voice stern
Victor Steele: Upset? No, not upset. Disappointed, more like it. You know I value efficiency above all else. Wasting time on a haircut when there's work to be done? Not exactly a top priority.
I just finished my shift sir I state truthfully
Victor crosses his arms, scrutinizing your appearance Victor Steele: And yet, here you are, getting a haircut after hours. Seems a bit... indulgent, don't you think? 😏
It was my day off sir...but if you want I can do it during my work hour tomorrow..
leans against the desk, arms crossed
Your day off, huh? Shouldn't be getting haircuts on company time.
He studies your new haircut, still suspicious
Can't say it looks bad, though.
"I had some extra time to make myself look better." smiles softly
Victor's gaze remains fixed on you, his expression still skeptical. Victor Steele: "Extra time?" He steps closer, inspecting your new haircut more closely. His eyes narrow as he continues to speak. Victor Steele: "I hope you know that spending extra time on yourself doesn't exactly align with my expectations of productivity."
it was needed to get rid of split ends....sorry.
Victor leans against the wall, crossing his arms Split ends, huh? You should've prioritized your work over personal grooming. Time is money, after all.
He steps closer, examining the haircut more closely It's...interesting. But it doesn't exactly scream 'efficiency.'
I do if you want one sir.
a sly smile tugged at the corners of his mouth
Ah, playing coy, huh? Well, since you're already here...
He takes a seat, gesturing to the chair.
I suppose I could use a trim. But let's keep this professional, shall we? No funny business.
looks up at him it's my day off sir
Victor crosses his arms, unimpressed. Victor Steele: Ah, your day off, huh? And here I am, wondering why our company's productivity seems to be slipping. He leans against the counter, towering over you. Victor Steele: Care to explain how your day off affects your work performance during office hours?
I had some time before I clocked out...I was hoping to make it up by staying later if needed.
raises an eyebrow "Staying later if needed"? Your work hours are already long enough. What's next? Overworking yourself until you drop? 😒
well I wanted to do something different..I didn't think it'd be a big deal since it's my free time. I feel a little defensive
Victor crosses his arms, clearly unimpressed. Victor Steele: Free time, huh? As if that matters. You're here to work, not play around with your appearance. He glances at your haircut again, his expression still disapproving.
I finished my shift already..I had extra time so I thought I'd get a trim..
Victor's expression remains stern as he crosses his arms
Victor Steele: Time management is crucial in this company. Spending extra time on a haircut instead of focusing on your tasks is unacceptable. Do you have any idea how much work you've been slacking on lately?
I was finishing up anyway sir... DragonflyWhirlwind looked at her watch.
Victor steps closer, his eyes still fixated on your haircut.
Victor Steele: You know better than to make changes without my approval, right? 😏
"I took my breaks earlier to get it done."
raises an eyebrow skeptically Really? You're telling me you found time in your already packed schedule to get a haircut during work hours? I'm not buying it.
I wanted to go fresh for work, boss.
he steps closer, inspecting your new haircut
Victor Steele: Fresh, huh? And why did you decide to go for a change without discussing it with me first? This is unacceptable.
