They were so cramped and the lighting was terrible.

"I'll keep that in mind," he said with a wobbly salute.
The Spaniard was satisfied that the man had complied without putting up a fight, saved him from voicing more reasons as to why hair shouldn't be done in his work spaces, namely the safety of the plants. Not to mention he LIKED the outdoors smell, made being below ground not so bad. A small nod rolled off his head. "Please don't forget it." He hated repeating himself.

A belated finger went to the can of hairspray. "That goes for the hairspray too."

The shampoo was gone, and his hair was back to its shaggy, just rolled out of bed look, although the dirt was completely gone, and every time Damon moved his head a fresh waft of Strawberry hit him.

"Hi Mr. Belmonte," Damon said, extending his hand out to the Department Head. "I just wanted to say how glad I am to be working in your Department."
Dark eyes shifting to the man who's had had been worked on, he accepted the proffered hand, giving it a firm but quick shake before his own slipped back into his pocket. "Glad to have you, Damon. And please, just Rafael." No need for formalities unless he had to pull out the big bad boss card. And he hoped to not use that card often.

Taking several more steps into the area, the man spotted that he wasn't much out of place here. Clad in worn-in jeans and a decent button down shirt, along with some sort of patterned moccassins Caroline had insisted on getting him for his birthday- he really wasn't much of a sore thumb. Whew. At least that was a good sign.

Giving the room at last survey, Elias slipped off towards one of the desks. He took a seat and ran his hands over the top. It was so... empty. And obviously, him being so full of first day jitters, he'd completely forgotten to bring anything to spice up his working conditions. Not that they weren't incredible already. Reaching into his jacket, he pulled out the note his daughter had tucked into his pocket that morning. He smiled, and took out his wand, temporarily fixing it to the desk top. There, very homey.
The Head spotted a new employee walking in and going straight to work. He liked this fellow, and could tell he would be an asset if he kept this up. His eyes lingered on the desk for a brief moment to try and catch a glimpse of the item pulled out of the pocket before turning his gaze to another new employee.

Might as well get the introduction bit over with. "I'm Noah Harper, though I just go by Harper... I recently got the senior botanist job."
Ah. One of his Botanists. He would have let this man get settled into his small desk area out here, but it seemed he wanted to get straight to the dirty work. Great. Extending his hand, he let a small smile twitch at the corners of his lips. "Good to meet you, Harper. Rafael Belmonte, your Department Head." And incline of his head towards the greenhouses beside him had his dark curls falling just over his eyes, forcing the man to pull back after a quick moment. "Would you like to get acquainted with the greenhouses or do you want to finish settling in out here?"

The young people in this department were so loving with the nature and he contemplated whether he should let them join his conquest in spreading peace and love around the world! PEACE!&LOOOOOVE! He had a harmonious epiphany, forming a wiiiiiide grin in front of his new boss. "Mother Nature LOVES me sir! She LOVES me! Oh we're the best of friends, did you know that? Sometimes," he paused hesitantly but decided to go on, "Mother Nature speaks in my very mind. Sometimes, she's angry. Sometime's, she's quite happy! But I live for her voice, do you know what I mean, Rafael?! WE ARE COMBINED AS ONE MYSTICAL BEING!"

The twinkle formed even brighter, wanting to make a speech about this whole Rainbow/Mother-nature creature that was releasing out into the world--BORN FROM THE DEPTHS OF MOTHER NATURE'S WOMBS!

Alas, he stopped himself, wanting to save this little speech for later on.

"So is there work on the first day of the job, sir?" he questioned excitedly.
Rafael chose to ignore the tension that seemed to creep between two of his Division Heads for now. If it worse and interfered with their jobs in a negative way, then he would speak with them, but for now... he'd let it slide.

Instead he focused on the small speech the man was giving that could be compared to the ones he'd received from the lad by the fountain if they hadn't been so joyful and just a bit more poetic. Maybe more than a bit. "I am glad you and Mother Nature are so well acquainted, Rain." He nodded his head, amusement present. Ah, what he had been hoping to hear from one of his heads. Work talk. "Right now I would like you to get settled in and acquainted with those who are in your division. Make sure they know their stuff and if not..." He shrugged. Rain liked to educate, right? He'd let the man educate those who worked under him first.

Though they should ALREADY be well educated, Rafa didn't hire anything less than the best.

...

"That goes for all of you." He spoke a bit louder so the entire office could hear. "Get to know those in your division that are here, whether you head it or not. We are currently spread a bit thin as this is a new Department still in the process of hiring, so some of you might not have a head or others in your division. If that is the case then you will report directly to me and together we'll get whatever work that needs to be done, done." His eyes swept the room as he took a pause. "When that is done, I will be giving out work as it arrives." A dismissive wave of his hand had him sending them off to do work.

Except the Harper character. He could stay and Rafa would give him a tour of the greenhouse.
