Aargh, distractions of shiny objects in the room. Darn his fascination with things that made him block out his boss and now a new entrance.
Wait a second - he had ANOTHER new employee. It just had to be his lucky day then, honestly.
"Well hello there," he said. "It is quite a place, actually. I'm Kristofer Atkins, miss. Call me Kris if you'd prefer it. I'm your division head here." Quote:

As it turns out, 4 turns backward and one forward hadn't been the magic combination. Hm... 2 forward and one backward? Melina did so and crouched down behind one of the many shelves and watching a scene play out in front of her; She was saying "Hello, I'm Melina Moretti-Papadakis. Welcome to the Time Room!" Then she nodded in the direction of an empty desk and motioned for the one girl, who had not, to sit down. "We're working on preparing Time Turners for the world cup, so the officials can be sure that no cheating or foul play has occured. We're really just experimenting, so read the books you've got at those tables and then get started. Kris, our Department head can explain further, if necessary.", Melina said, taking it upon herself to explain the task at hand. Then, she set back to work. Could it be it was 4 turns backward and one forward?
That had been just five minutes ago. She had it! Melina was practically jumping up and down from her hiding spot. Quickly, she reversed the order and went back to her original time. "Kris, I've got it, finally.", Melina said excitedly, "It's 2 turns forward and one turn backwards!" Kris eyed Melina's progress curiously as she suddenly turned her Time Turner and then disappeared for a moment in front of his eyes.
Drat. Oh well, he couldn't be the best at everything.
"Very good," he said as she reappeared and announced her achievement to him. "Now what all did you do to tweak the rest of it?"
He leaned against his desk for a moment before he remembered his pregnant boss was still inside the room. Quickly, he conjured a comfy chair that scooted itself underneath her, complete with footrest and massage options if needed. Who said chivalry was dead, eh?
"I'd like to see what you did, and I'm sure everyone else in here would like to see as well. If you don't mind, that is."
