Unsure of exactly what to do, the newly appointed ministry worker just looked at Alba for a moment, waiting for some sort of advice or instruction, unsure of exactly what to do. This was her first day and already she had almost knocked over a fellow worked and now this mess across the floor too. Had anyone ever had a worse first day? “Of course, I can help!” she yelped. Dropping her bag where she stood, she sped towards the letters and started collecting them instantly, her eyes wide with panic.
Alba couldn't help but laugh at how hysterical these the newcomers look. Here they were on their first day, running into each other, and now running around like chickens to save all the memos.
"Thank you!' She half shouted at Delyth for her help.
Noticed one fly near the lift again, Alba made a diving catch to grab it before it could flutter away and get loss. Two things happen simultaneously.. 1. Alba crashed into the lift gates causing them to bend and dent slightly ... and 2. The airplane slid underneath the lift and was lost.
Embarrassed beyond anything else ... she turned toward Delyth.
"Dear Merlin ... what have I done!" Alba was certain she would be fired .... she had made a mess and destroyed the lift all on her first day ... she was going to be fired for sure.
