Well, George seemed to have a bit of a strong personality, but these type of people did generally make good employee’s. So what if she wasn’t a people’s person? Teal didn’t care, as long she didn’t go out of her way to disrespect him, because Teal was quite the accomplished and respectable man. “I’m glad you made the change then, you’re here just in time. According to this bloody file that came in this morning,” Teal picked up a file off his desk and raised it in the air, “The Goblins are starting to rebel over at Gringotts.” Taking a sip of his coffee, Teal suddenly thought of poor Violet Silvermoon who had been sitting outside his office for quite awhile now.
He hated to cut the meeting short, but he’d catch up with the broad later… if she was even the type that enjoyed ‘catching up’. “But we’ll go over that with everyone else in Goblin Liaison later today, I have someone waiting for me outside.” He said gruffly, taking another quick, small sip from his coffee. “Go ahead and read up on this.” He said, sliding the file across his desk to George, “Shouldn’t take too long.”
Taking a look at his watch, Teal furrowed his brow. “’Glad to have you in service George.” Teal said with a wry, smug grin. “And could you tell the woman that’s waiting outside to come on in for me?”
George was just about to try and see what his reaction to her perching on his desk when he was giving her the Bum's Rush out of the office. She didn't care for that at all. She caught filed that slid across his desk, snapping it up in one quick motion and peeking into it. Interesting.
Well I'm keeping my coffee in any c- HEY! I am NOT 'in service!'
"'In service' makes me sound like a public toilet. I'm not part of the scenery, Teal. I work here. I work hard. I am good at what I do." George's eyes flashed dangerously. "I'll head to the Goblin Liason Office as soon as I've read this thoroughly. In the meantime I'll be in the Cafeteria having some solid food with my caffeine. Should you care to join me as I meet my new employees, catching myself up should only take about half and hour and I'll be back on the Fourth Floor."
Clickity Clack, Clickity Clack.
With her file tucked under her arm and her coffee in hand like a life preserver George clicked and clacked her way to the door.

Whoosh! The door swung open and from it emerged George, still well put together, but for the scowl on her face. She glanced around and spotted the little witch waiting for their boss.
"You must be waiting for Teal," she remarked, one eyebrow raised. "Our fearless leader will see you now."
With not so much as a 'Nice to meet you,' or a 'Good luck,' George Clickity Clacked to the Elevator.
