Episode 5

Camila

After Caro told me about the job, I looked at Noah.

Camila - Are you crazy?

Carolina - You offend me, friend, listen to me first.

I nodded.

Carolina - My uncle is looking for a secretary or personal assistant, I would like you to be in your field but I understand that you don't want pressure, so I suggested the idea to my uncle and he has accepted but first I had to tell you.

Camila - Caro, I...

Carolina - It will help you a lot to get out of here and don't misunderstand me, it's a nice place but at least for a while it would help you to get away from that idiot, you would be with your grandmother and you would have me close, come on friend, say yes.

I looked at Noah.

Noah - The idea is good.

Camila - But the treatment, I....

Noah - The doctor will administer it every 2 months, we can talk to him to do it on a weekend and mention that in your interview to see if they give you that possibility.

Carolina - I can talk to my uncle and...

Camila - Aaah no no, if I'm going to have the job I want to deserve it, not because he's your uncle Caro.

Carolina - Haaay but I can lend you a hand and...

Camila - Nooo, I want to earn the position for what I know.

Carolina - Fine, fine, I'm not going to intervene then, do you accept?

I looked at Noah, he shrugged.

Noah - You know that mom and dad support you, Cami, besides it's not like you'd be alone, you're going with our grandmother.

I looked at Caro.

Camila - I'll do the interview but I don't want you to interfere, okay?

Carolina - Yes, yes, I understand, what a thrill, pass me your resume to talk to Zulema, she's in charge of human resources.

Camila - Fine.

I took my laptop and sent her my resume, she nodded and left to talk to the person in human resources, then she sent her my data and approached.

Carolina - Well, she suggested that to avoid traveling for the interview, she wants to do it with a video call, so you'll be more confident if they give you the opportunity or not.

Noah - And can it be done like that?

Carolina - She said she needs authorization but there are many possibilities of...

She got a message and showed it.

Carolina - In 30 minutes they'll give you the interview, friend, so get ready.

I nodded and we went inside the house, I took a quick shower and put on the most formal thing I could, a blue shirt and jeans, it's not like they were going to see the part of the pants so I opted to just put on the blouse, exactly 30 minutes on my laptop appeared the request to accept a video call so I sat down and answered, a very pretty black-haired girl with a smile appeared.

Zulema - Hello Miss Leblanc, my name is Zulema Park, I will conduct the interview for the position of personal assistant.

Camila - Hello, a pleasure Miss Park, I understood that it would be for secretary.

Zulema - Both vacancies are free, if you allow me to do it for assistant and you don't like it we can make the change with the person who would be secretary or if the secretary is not very good at her job your boss can promote you as his personal assistant.

Camila - I understand.

She began to ask me different questions and then added.

Zulema - I was reviewing your resume, I see that you did a degree in Software, right now they are not hiring in that area but if a vacancy opens up, would you be interested?

Camila - As you could see, I worked a short time in the area of ​​computing because it generated too much stress for me, I am a person who suffers from asthma and not sleeping much affected my health, I would also like to talk about that if you allow me.

Zulema - Of course I listen to you.

Camila - I have just started an experimental treatment for asthma and the medication will be administered every 2 months, if selected, I would like to see the possibility of being allowed to travel to take the medication and return.

Zulema - I don't see any problem with that part, I appreciate the sincerity but tell me, would you be interested in changing areas?

Camila - In the future yes.

Zulema - Very well Miss Leblanc let me inform you that you already have the job.

Camila - Really?

Zulema - Yes, you are one of the most prepared applicants and I am sure that you will perform your job in the best way.

Camila - Thank you.

Zulema - Do you think you can travel to present yourself to work tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?

Camila - Yes, of course I can.

Zulema - Perfect, when you arrive go straight to human resources, I'll be waiting for you.

Camila - Thank you very much.

I cut the call and smiled, left my laptop, went out to see if mom and dad had already arrived, I had to tell them, when I got to the living room everyone was there and Caro spoke.

Carolina - How did it go?

I smiled.

Camila - They gave me the job.

Carolina - Aaaaah what a thrill friend.

She hugged me right away, then Noah, then I saw my parents and before I could tell them anything, Dad spoke.

"Noah already told us what happened daughter, you know that we support you."

Camila - Thank you dad.

Mom approached and took my hands.

"I know you'll be in good hands with your grandmother Lore, give your best in that job and above all enjoy your work a lot."

Camila - Thank you mom.

Noah - When do you start?.

Camila - They told me that if I could start tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

Noah - And what do you say?

Camila - I don't know if there are flights at night and find a taxi to take me to my grandmother's.

Carolina - That's not a problem friend, I'll call dad to pick us up so you can start tomorrow or tell me it also depends on how you arrive from the trip.

Noah - Caro is right, you decide.

Camila - If there are flights I would like to leave today to settle in.

Noah started looking for flights and Caro called her dad to inform him of the plans, 10 minutes later we already had the flight, it would leave at 10 at night, we would be arriving at 5 in the morning to Chicago, Caro and mom helped me with my suitcase, with my grandmother I always leave clothes so I would only take formal clothes to work, I dressed warmly and we left for the airport, we arrived with enough time to have something for dinner, then I said goodbye to my family and boarded the plane.

Carolina - Nervous?

Camila - Not now but I imagine that when I start my job I will be.

Carolina - Trust yourself, you are quite good at your job.

I nodded, we talked a little more and then Caro fell asleep, shortly after I did too, I woke up when they announced the descent, I spoke to Caro.

Camila - Caro we're going to land.

Carolina - Ok I'm awake now.

Once we landed we went to look for our suitcases then to look for Mr. Issac.

Carolina - Dad.

We approached and I greeted Mr. Issac.

Issac - Welcome Camila.

Camila - Thank you very much Mr. Issac, I really appreciate you picking us up.

Issac - You're welcome, it's a pleasure, now let's go.

He helped me with my suitcase and we left for my grandmother's house, after 40 minutes we arrived, she already knew I was coming so as soon as the car parked she came out to greet me.

Camila - Grandma.

"My girl, how nice to see you again my love."

I hugged her tightly.

Carolina - Hello Grandma Lore.

"Hello my girl Caro, come in come in, do you want a coffee?"

They went in and she offered them a coffee, we were talking for a while then Mr. Issac asked.

Issac - When do you start working?

Camila - They gave me the option of doing it today or tomorrow.

Issac - Okay, if you want you can start tomorrow so you can rest today or settle in.

I nodded.

Camila - I'll let Miss Park know that I'm already in Chicago and that I'll start tomorrow.

Carolina - Sounds good to me.

I took my cell phone and sent her the message.

"Good morning Miss Zulema I let you know that I already arrived in Chicago, I will start tomorrow if you agree"

Minutes later I received her response.

"Good morning Miss Leblanc, would it be possible for you to present yourself today? A lot of work has accumulated in the presidency and your help would be good since the CEO of the company has an important meeting, it doesn't matter if you enter at 10 but your help would be very useful"

"I will try to arrive on time"

I sighed, I got up from the table.

Camila - Excuse me that it seems that I have to start today, they have a lot of work accumulated and the CEO has an important meeting.

Issac - In that case I'll wait for you and take you to the company.

Camila - Thank you very much.

I ran upstairs, chose some clothes and went in to take a quick bath, I opted for jeans, a pink blouse and a blazer, combed my hair and put on a little makeup, I went down with my backpack, Caro and Mr. Issac were already waiting for me, I got in and they took me to the company, it was huge, I felt a very nice emotion, I got off and said goodbye to Mr. Issac.

Carolina - I'll go with you friend.

Camila - Don't worry, I'll be fine.

Carolina - You want to do it alone eeh.

I nodded.

Carolina - Okay but I'll see you later.

Camila - Ok Caro see you and thanks again Mr. Issac.

Issac - You're welcome Camila.

I sighed and went inside, in reception I asked them to tell me which floor is human resources, the very kind girl told me that it was the 15th so I went to the elevator, when I arrived at the floor I asked for Miss Zulema Park, I heard them answer.

"What are you looking for her for?"

I turned to see her.

Camila - Good day I'm looking for her to tell me where I will work.

"In cleaning it will be with those outfits."

I looked at my clothes and when I was going to answer Miss Zulema came out of the elevator in person, she is prettier and taller, she looked at me and approached.

Zulema - Miss Leblanc?

I nodded.

Zulema - What a pleasure I'm Zulema Park follow me to my office.

I nodded again, followed her to her office, upon entering she told me to take a seat.

Zulema - Well this is your contract Miss Leblanc read it and anything you don't understand tell me.

I started to read everything was in order, it also said about the permits every 2 months I had 3 days off to come and go, my salary was good and the hours from 8 to 4 but it could be extended depending on the work and the CEO but it would be few days once I finished reading I signed and handed the folder to her.

Zulema - The CEO has already left but I will tell you where you will work and what you have to do, I tell you from now on that it is a disaster.

I nodded.

She took me to the elevator and while we were going up I asked.

Camila - Excuse me, does the company have a dress code?

Zulema - No, you can come as you want as long as the CEO does not indicate that your clothing is very vulgar.

Camila - I understand.

Zulema - On the 20th floor there is a cafeteria there you can eat or you can go out to do it you have 40 min for each food.

Upon arriving at the floor I was indicating where each office was, the floor cafeteria, the meeting room, where the vice president's office was and introduced me to his secretary, then she indicated where the CEO's office was the position that would be for the secretary and finally my office when opening it I also opened my eyes huge.

Zulema - A disaster I know, don't think this was like this I don't explain how it got to this point, do you need help?

Camila - No, don't worry, I can, it will just take me a little longer.

Zulema - If you need something you know where to find me or you can call me.

I nodded.

Camila - Thank you.

She left and I started to tidy everything up, I took folders, I was reading papers to organize them by date and in order, after several hours the office was clearing up, I heard my cell phone and answered.

Camila - Hello.

Carolina - Hello friend how are you doing.

Camila - Good Caro thank you very much.

Carolina - Do you want to go eat?

Camila - I would love to.

Carolina - I'll see you in 5 minutes at the entrance.

Camila - Fine, I'm going there.

I took my backpack and went down to reception, I went out and there was Caro, we went to eat, I went back to the office.

Carolina - I'll pick you up okay?

Camila - Fine see you.

I went up to the last floor and finished fixing my office, I sighed and closed the door, the Vice President's secretary was no longer there so I went to the elevator, I felt really tired when I arrived at reception I said goodbye to the girl who was there and went out, Caro was already waiting for me there I met Miss Park.

Camila - The office is ready.

Zulema - Wow you are excellent thank you rest see you tomorrow.

I nodded Caro took me to my grandmother's house I invited her to dinner and she left I called home and talked a little with my family then I went to sleep.
