If you have any questions and can't find Laura then don't hesitate to ask me." Ingrid still felt a bit bad for coming off as so loud which hadn't been her intention at all.
"Liliana Bones, right?" Ingrid asked as she surveyed the seemingly energetic woman in front of her."Yes, I'm your boss Ingrid. Welcome to Apparition! Do you have any questions about the job or something else?" she asked with a warm tone. All new employees had an introductary meeting with Mr Trumball but with the arrival of so many at one go Ingrid figured that not everyone had had the pleasure of doing so and just came straight to the cubicles. Noticing the plaque with the name Liliana already put up on one of the desks Ingrid was glad that her employee had already found her spot.
Hearing footsteps behind her Ingrid to turned to smile brightly at Laura "Hello, Laura! How are you coping with your new division head duties?" The last aas asked with curiosity since the other woman had just taken up the role as new division head of broom control. Ingrid had herself not had the smoothest of transitions into her rolse so she hoped Laura wasnät having any troubles.
Ingrid turned to Armen and said a bit dramatically "Oh Armen. Did you miss me so much? I hope the divison hasn't been run to the ground in my absence." Glancing around it didn't appear as if the her division were in chaos or in some sort of crisis. The memos on her desk didn't even have that urgent red text. Oh well no matter.
As observant as he usually was her co-division head had noticed her menagerie pamplet. Taking the pamphlet out again Ingrid said thoughtfully some minutes "Yes, I'm thinking about bying a pet. Don't know what kind [I]though.. My grandmother is considering sending me her old and grumpy tortoise Max but i'm not sure if i want to live with one. Any pet suggestions?"
She listened as Armen told Liliana what you did in the Apparition office. Ingrid couldn't have put it better herself. With a warm smile to Armen she focused on Liliana saying "Armen is absolutley correct. In our division we test both young and old who need apparition licenses. It can be renewals for people who have apprated for many year or graduated Hogwarts students."
"And yes we also go to Hogwarts from time to time to teach the senior classes how to apparate safely. This is though on the request of the Hogwarts Headmaster so its not something we do every year or term." Ingrid heard Armens comment about them not updating each other on the on-goings in each other's divisions. She knew that they needed to get better at that but the new employees didn't need to be dragged into such a discussion/meeting.
'Oh, right' she said 'It's good to have all that expalained, but' she paused 'I do have one question... What job am I in, exactly. I was told I was in the Apparations Office and that was it. I haven't neen to see Mr Trumball yet, though' she told Ingrid, a little emabarrassed
