Looking over the set up as she walked in, she gave Victoria a bright smile. "Hello... well, look at all this." She could certainly use a snack and she grabbed a plate, selecting some of the meats and veggies for herself. She took her regular seat at the head of the table, then turned to Vic. "So how are things going?" She talked to her pretty much on a daily basis, so she knew for the most part how she was but she was interested in what the blonde had in store for them today. She should have known her best friend and boss would be the first to come in. Giving her a big smile she poured herself some tea. "Well I figured since it was around lunch time that I'd make sure to feed everyone while they had to listen to me." Chuckling she hoped that everyone on her floor at least would want to stop in and hear what she had to say.
How had things been going, well she thought about that for a moment. "I think they've been going good. I mean I don't feel like the meet and greet went very well, but it was my first time speaking and I didn't want to give too much away just yet, plus being the first to speak I was pretty nervous. SO now it's time to hear what others thing and work on getting my points out there." That's exactly what she was planning, "Don't worry my other responsibilities will not lack because of this." She didn't want her boss to think they would. Even if her already long hours had gotten longer to keep up.

Alex was a sucker for sweets and couldn't stay away from Cookies. This is why it is probably good for Alex that he doesn't ever gain very much wait, despite him eating constant junk food twenty-four seven.
Upon grabbing a cookie or two and eating it, he laid his eyes upon the main reason why he was really there, to support the Quidditch Division Manager in her race to become Minister of Magic. " Hello Miss Culloden. How do you do? My name is Alex Federer, I'm an Ludicrous Patents Enforcement Officer here in the department." Her brown eyes lifted as someone new had come in. She knew Adam was getting another employee, but she hadn't heard of the name yet. This must be him. Extending a hand with his introduction she gave him a welcoming smile, "Nice to meet you Mr. Federer. I hope you are finding everything alright, but please call me Victoria. Thank you for coming to this little gathering this morning. I hope it doesn't keep you too long from your work." She was sure it wouldn't though, she wasn't expecting to have them here long. Though she wondered where the rest were.

The blonde came into the room holding a notebook in her hand and a pen as well, ready to take any notes that Victoria may need to overlook in the future as a reminder. She saw her and smiled in her direction then said, "Have any ideas on anything so far? I'm sure we'll all be able to come up with a strong plan of action if you need any help on it." Saxon took a seat next to Victoria and opened the book to an empty page, ready to write as soon as the meeting started. "Hello, Mariel." Saxon said, giving her department head a smile as well. There seemed to be a gentleman Saxon had not seen earlier, Alex, it seemed. He sounded new, based off how he was talking to Victoria. Grinning as Saxon came in the room she went to greet her, but stopped seeing the notebook. Goodness she was getting down to business wasn't she? It at first made Victoria a little nervous until she spoke. Wasn't she the sweetest thing ever? "That is very sweet of you Saxon and I would love the help if you want to give it, but in no way do I want any of you to feel obligated to vote for me just because I'm in your department. I want you to vote for me because you think I'm the best person for the job. Though if you are wanting to help, I could probably use more on my campaign team." Cossy and Mariel were her main go to's, but she'd love to have Saxon as well.
Looking at the small group she chewed the inside of her lip a bit. Maybe the rest were too busy or maybe they didn't really support her. She would hope they'd at least come to hear what she had to say, but if they didn't she'd have to get over it. Like she had just said to Saxon it was up to them who they supported even if it wasn't her. She understood that some might not think she was the right person, but she really hoped to have the chance to prove that she was. "I think I'll give a few more moments to see if anyone else will be joining us. Please make sure you get some food while we wait."
