 Puff by day, snake by night | Mj's bestie | Always UP to Something...
Victoria looke dup noticing someone else at the door. Giving him a warm smile she gestured for him to come in, "Ferris, isn't it?" She thought that was his name at least. "I'm glad you got my note about this meeting. I hope you're hungry, there is plenty of food." he hoped he was, because it was obvious she thought there would be more in attendance then there was. [b] "I was just getting started, so you haven't missed anything. As you may know I am running for minister of magic." Since Mariel had placed it on the board she figured all knew, plus the prophet and the meet and greet. "I wanted a chance to hear from my own department on what they thought needed improved as well as give a chance for any of you to ask me questions."
Speaking of questions she turned hearing Alex speak up, she smiled at his question and was about to answer when Saxon spoke up. Both great questions, but she stopped a moment again as Mariel spoke. Now she was hearing what someone wanted out of her. "Thank you all for your comments and questions, please feel free to keep them coming." This was what she wanted along with hearing what they wanted to see improved. "As for your question about what I feel I have that will make me a better minister then my opponents. Well, I feel I have many great qualities that will make me a successful minister. My love and passion for the ministry will keep me motivated to work hard and make sure everything is running smoothly, that all the wizarding community is getting the best communication and improvements from all of us. That employees get the best care and respect for all their hard work.I have a very driven work ethic and am not afraid to take on the challenges of being minister nor do I fear working long hours. Anyone that knows me knows I am one of the first in the office each day and one of the last to leave." She was a bit of a workaholic, but it worked for this position. Making sure to make eye contact with each that had come to show that they all were important she continued, "I am very well organized and in my position as Quidditch Division Manager I have developed better communications between manager and our department, I've lead the team to make stronger and better rules and regulations to try to keep a control of unsportsmanlike conduct and making sure repeat offenders no we aren't joking anymore. I feel these skills will be handy for a minister to keep communication between departments. Which I feel needs to be stronger, how many of you have been to another department? Do you know what the other departments really? This to me is a must. We all need to know what's going on and have a respect and understanding for each others positions." Some of her reasons why she had always went to visit other departments in the last six years.
"I would like to bring a work study program into the ministry and schools around the area, to help younger witches and wizards get the work experiences and the training they need to be successful once they enter jobs in the ministry as well as start bringing a way to keep our employees so there isn't a big turn over rate." This was a very important program to her and even if she didn't get to be minister she hoped to see this program happen. "I feel I am at a good advantage with my age to take on the stress and responsibilities of becoming the next minister, I also feel that being an actual part of the ministry and have been for the past six years that I know what's truly going on and have the personal and social abilities to connect with the entire wizarding world. I also have no other conflicts in our community that could impair my judgement as minister. My priority will be the ministry and what is best for our community's prosperity and safety."
Glancing around she hoped that helped their questions and gave them some specific examples of her ideas and plans. She had many program and ideas, but didn't want to be too long winded if they had more to ask.
