But he was still flattered, nonetheless.
"That's fabulous. Planning a tournament.... yes... Should I arrange an appointment in your office to discuss logistics of the planning?" Or about a pay raise? Dom mentally added. "Sounds fine ... " he trailed off, glancing at the pile of ashes Rex had nudged. Nothing look salvageable to him.
"Tomorrow is going to be a long day. Should we arrange to come in early?" Early to work . . . early to leave . . . hopefully! Rex nodded. "We'll discuss your ideas once the level is back to normal."
He didn't have to elaborate about what he meant by normal - it was obvious to all that the conference and work areas would have to be completely redone thanks to the destruction caused by one irate Mr. Thatcher.
One month later.... The entire work area looked as if nothing had happened. New desks were arranged inside of each brand new cubicle. The lighting and floors had been replaced as well as a few of the glass walls. Even new filing cabinets were purchased to house the numerous department files.
Rex walked around the work areas and poked his head into the cubicles to see what the employees were working on.
So far, so good.
