She knew some people didn't really like human contact and although she was sure he wasn't that type of person she could never be too sure.
"Atticus," he corrected almost instantly though kindly. "Mr. Aldredge" made him sound old and was far too formal in his opinion for his employees to address him as. Plus he'd just never liked the sound of "Mr. Aldredge," at least not when addressed to him.

Atticus considered the question for a few moments. Hearing the reports in person would certainly save him a lot of tedious reading time, but having these kinds of things on paper was generally the best way to go. He had a good memory but not that good. "By owl would be best, I'd say," he answered. "I certainly wouldn't mind if you could do both though." It'd save him tedious reading time and he'd still have a hard copy of the report for storing and file keeping and what-not. He wouldn't require them to do both though, since he was sure their jobs could get fairly busy and it might be easier on them to just write a report and send it rather than do that and explain to him what was going on.

He gave Miss Black a polite nod when she grabbed some more food on her way out. Thank Merlin. That was a couple donuts and bagels that he didn't have to worry about taking home.

He then turned and looked at the rest of the people still in the room. Were there any other questions or suggestions, perhaps?

It seemed not. So once the last person had left, Atticus surveyed what was left of the food and drinks for a few moments. Then, with a flick of his wand, he made them disappear and reappear in the Break Room. It would be better kept there than in his office at the moment - perhaps someone would want some for a quick snack during their break time. Whatever was left at the end of the day, he'd take that home. But hopefully he wouldn't have to do that.

After making sure the room was clean and back in the condition he'd found it upon first entering, he exited the room, closed the door, and locked it, before making his way back to his office.
