First Time - The Invitation

First Time – The Invitation

My second day on the job went rather well. At least, it went better than my first day. I spotted Roger and made a mental note of where his office was. I wondered if I should walk by his office. I decided not to do it. My boss called me in his office and gave me some work to drop off at another worker’s office. It turned out to be next to Roger’s office. I couldn’t help but walk by his office. I saw him at his desk and I gave him a wave with my hand. He motioned for me to come into his office. He was on the phone and he pointed to a chair for me to sit down in. He quickly wrapped up the call.

He said, "How is it going Michael, or was it Mike, or Mickey?" I replied, "You can call me Mike."

Roger smiled and said, "So we are now friends. That is great news." I realized he remember what I said when I ran into him. "How about a drink after work to celebrate your new job?"

I was stunned. I wondered if he was asking me as a co-worker or was he interested in just me. I finally realized he was probably just being friendly as a co-worker. I did not know what to say and just nodded my head.

Roger said, "Great, meet me here after work and then we will get that drink."

I floated out of the office. I was extreme happy the rest of the day. Even if nothing develops, things seemed to be looking up for me. At least I made a friend at work and he was good looking.
