Sorry... this made me giggle too much. xD SPOILER!!: Mr Atticus 'Attractive' Aldredge Amy blinked. Ms Lynch? The only people who called her that were her Hogwart's professors. "Oh, you're so formal!" she giggled, "Please, call me Amy." Oh, will you look at that. He was shaking her hand! What a good handshake. "It's a pleasure to meet you too," she said, smiling sweetly at the man. She was trying to match his formality. Eyelash batting and giggling aside. Oh? It was time to start? Goodie! Amy kept the sweet smile on her face as she made her way towards the table and sat down in a seat that was next to Attractive man. She flicked her hair back and looked around at everyone as they sat down. She didn't even know half these people! Maybe she should stop flirting and get to know these people? ... Nah! Food? No thanks. She had her figure to maintain now Oh good plan Amy! Amy watched the man closely as he asked them to say their positions and such. He really seemed to want to get in touch with his employees didn't he? What a lovely Head! She waited for some people to introduce themselves before speaking up: "I'm Amy," Which most people in the room probably didn't know, "I'm an Officer for the Regulation of Breeding Magical Creatures. There was an upsurge in breeding crups but we've been pretty successful so far in contacting the relevant organisations. As for the regulations, we're working on it." She said this all in the sweetest voice she could muster. |
Caitlyn and her's conversation was cut short as everyone took a seat. She made a note to go talk to her after. She looked towards the head of the table as their head finally introduced himself, Mr. Aldredge, Atticus Aldredge, well that was a nice name, and he sure seemed nice. She listened to her coworkers introduce themselves as well and realized she was next. She cleared her throat quietly, a little nervously actually, what was wrong with her? Lis was normally such a people person. "Well I'm Felicity" she said with a smile and a glance around the rest of the table "and I'm the Officer for the Import and Export of Magical Creatures. Things have been pretty quiet lately, nothing too big coming in or out...There was a small acromantula smuggled in illegally,but the man was caught and the spider sent back, so no harm done." she finished and smiled slightly again, hoping that sounded alright. She really wanted to do well, show that she was capable, with her being new and all. |

She listened to each person introduce themselves and with each story she would give a warm smile followed by a light nod. Before Laurel knew it, it was her turn to introduce herself. Laurel then cleared her throat and said,"Right..Well...Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing alright.." She smiled again,"My name is Laurel Bellefleur...And I'm the Spirit Relocation Senior Officer.." Laurel added,"And a few weeks ago on the last trip we worked on relocating a little ghost named Marlene from a home, and it went pretty smoothly..Hopefully more of our trips will be like that in the coming months.." She smiled and brushed aside some of her blonde hair. |

rearranging slightly :) OOC: Before the meeting started... Quote:
OOC: Meeting has now started! =) Quote:
Atticus nodded. "I'm sure you'll have some success soon." He'd probably be able to give more/better advice once he saw the report and had more of the specifics on what had happened. He wasn't going to press the issue now, of course. Text Cut: MUDBL00Dpride & hrmy_lvr_4evr Atticus noticed the young man from earlier who had seemed extremely nervous. Was he too nervous to say anything at all now? Aw. Poor guy. At least the woman he'd been talking to earlier seemed to also have noticed and was whispering something to him. Hopefully it was about the meeting and not just a side conversation. And then she spoke up. Nothing much besides doxy infestations? That was good, yes? Especially since she and the rest of the Pest Removal Squad had handled it. "Excellent," he said with a smile. Text Cut: hermionesclone This one seemed nice, and she seemed to enjoy her job, which was great. Not to mention she'd been successful in doing what needed to be done. Atticus smiled. "Glad to hear that." Quote:
Quote:
"Anyone else?" Surely the others had something to say. Like the quiet one from earlier, perhaps? |
No no no no. He had been noticed. Noah looked down at his clenched hands. No bloody crying like a baby. This shouldn't be that difficult, right? He remembered what Violet had told him and sighed, he'd have to talk eventually, this was his job after all. People were going to be part of the job. 'No-N-Noah...' He managed, he blushed at his constant stuttering. 'Noah Da-Dawson.' Now came the easy part, he could talk about his job right? Noah looked up, the others had been able to talk about it without any trouble. BAD IDEA. He quickly returned his gaze to his sweaty hands, he did NOT like people watching him as he spoke. 'I- I'm the Officer for Larger Creatures...' This wasn't going to be that bad, this was something he could talk about, he had done it before, so why not again? 'There haven't been any major problems, except we had a Griffin who attacked it's owner. It's all been taken care of and both are fine.' He smiled before looking up carefully. He'd done that alright, hadn't he? |

Anna heard the meeting was starting and said goodbye to the Department head and went to go snag a seat. She wndered what the meeting would be like... |
so sorry for the long wait! gonna move this along... Quote:

Atticus listened as Mr. Dawson explained the incident with the Griffin and its owner and nodded once he had finished. "Good to hear that they're both okay." And now it seemed like it was time to move on and start winding the meeting down. He didn't intend for it to be an extremely long one after all. They all had jobs to do, including himself. "I'm glad to hear that all of you seem to overall be doing well in your assignments. I expected nothing less." He smiled. "Now I don't want to waste too much more of your time as I'm sure you all have something you'd rather do than hear me drone on and on. So now I'd just like to hear any questions or suggestions you may have reagarding the department or myself or anything else you can think of that would be relevant. If you don't have any questions or suggestions, you may leave and head back to your work area. My door is always open if you happen to think of something later." Hopefully they'd take more of the donuts and bagels too. There still seemed to be too many for him to actually take home and eat. |

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. Quote:
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. |
Walking out of her office with several papers in hand, Ella made her way to the conference room for the scheduled Creatures meeting. She had probably more owls in the last week than she had in a year. It was time to get to work! Ella walked around the large, circular table and stood behind the big chair for herself by the window. She spread out all her papers and went back over in her mind what she needed to say and what needed to be done. Once she was ready, she tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and waited for her employees to arrive. |

I am terribly sorry for what is about to transpire! SPOILER!!: Terribly sorry Alright, so the zoning out and walking into things seemed to have subsided after a couple of days. And things seemed to have gone back to normal for Laurel....or so she thought... Now was the day of the Magical Creatures meeting and when Laurel woke up today, she was seeming to be feeling alright. She went on with her usual schedule of showering, dressing appropriately, doing the hair, normal girly girl stuff that they all go through. She then was on her way to work, and she was feeling..alright-ish. When she had arrived on her level and reached her dress, something odd started happening. While she was going through some paperwork about some cases that she would be taking up, she had accidentally....drooled? Ugh, disgusting! She quickly cleaned herself up and tried not to think too much of it. It was time to go to the meeting. 15 minutes later, after the first drool incident, Laurel's drooling was seeming to be coming almost persistent. And to the point that Laurel had to carry a bucket with her now, for she had no idea what else to do. When she had arrived at the conference room, she seemed to be alright for now. Laurel saw Ella waiting for everyone to arrive. She'd better go and say good morning before the drooling happened again. Laurel made her way over, with the bucket behind her back trying to make it less known. She smiled politely and said,"Good morning Miss Wellingto--" and drool came flying out of her mouth flying right beside Miss Wellington, just barely hitting the head of her department. Laurel gasped covering her mouth quickly. She quickly tried saying,""Oh I am so sorr--" once again drool came out of her mouth, that time it was just within inches of hitting Miss Wellington. Laurel tried talking again, but the drool came up again and it was seeping through her fingers. She brought the bucket up under her mouth as the drool began dropping into the bucket. Without another word, Laurel made her way towards one of the seats in the slightly away from everyone else, in fear that she might get someone else with her drooling matters. Sadly for her though, some of the drool had gotten onto the floor as she was making her way towards the chair. But Laurel didn't care, drool or not, she was NOT going to miss this meeting, especially with the new head of her department. She did not want to give a bad impression..although judging from what just happened, it might have been a bit late for that bad impression. |
Sorry about it being so late, my Internet wasn't working yesterday. Thomas walked into the shared conference room for the meeting that he HAD to attend. Thankfully he just got back from Hogsmeade in time, or else he would be done for. He wanted to make a good first impression on his new department head, and also be welcoming to her. Unfortunately Atticus had left not to long after Thomas joined. So he wanted for his new department head to stay for a nice amount of time. So as he walked in he said "Good day. How has your day been?" Then he found a seat, and sat down, waiting for the meeting to start. |
Serafina entered the room, hanging back from the others who were filing in as well, especially from some of the ones she'd seen exhibiting rather... odd behaviors. She took a seat that was well away from the drooling girl, though she did feel pity for her, she didn't wish to be slobbered on. The family dog did that enough as it was... Perhaps she should mention this odd behavior to her husband. As Head Healer on the floor of St. Mungos that specifically dealt with magical bugs and ailments.. surely he would have an idea of what was going on. She contemplated this as she sat in her seat and waited for the meeting to begin. |

And maybe she didn't need to question it, because when Laurel spoke, drool flew everywhere. Ella's eyes widened and she backed away a little, not wanted to get hit by the airborne saliva. And when she apologized, it happened again. What in the world? That was what the bucket was for? Catching drool? It reminded her of poor Kensi in the food court who seemed to be drooling incredulous amounts. "Hello..." she said slowly as Laurel walked to her seat. Ella gave her a concerned look. "Are you okay?" she mouthed quietly to her. Or maybe it was... normal? Quote:

With a glance at the clock, Ella decided it was about time to get started with the meeting. She left the door cracked open though, so any stragglers could still come inside. "Alright, everyone. Thank you for coming this afternoon. I hope everything has been going well," she began as she took her seat in the larger chair in front of the window. "Before we get started, please help yourself to some coffee and cookies. Mathorda was kind enough to run to the food court and grab them for us." Ella gestured to the cookies and coffee mugs in the center of the table. Caffeine was a must. Personally, Ella was a tea drinker. So she had her cup of tea from her office. Because she was special. "Okay," she started again, straightening out the papers in front of her. "First things first. We have a couple of promotions to announce. Congratulations to Scarlett O'Connell on becoming our new Senior Werewolf Support Advisor. Also, congratulations to Alyss Glass, who... is not here yet," she said, looking around. "But Alyss is now our Albino Bloodhound Team Leader." Hopefully, she would show up soon. Ella sat back in her chair and smiled at her employees. "So, congratulations to the two of you. And if any of you feel like you deserve some kind of recognition or promotion as well, feel free to see me after this meeting." There. Now that that was taken care of... "Do we have any questions before we continue?" Questions of ANY kind. Feel free to ask now. |

And now, on with the meeting. "Alright, just a couple more announcements. The Ministry will be going through another hiring streak in about a month. I think we can expect a lot of new faces in here, so be ready to welcome them in." Ella certainly hoped there would be some more employees, anyway. Her numbers seemed to be dwindling. "With that being said, you will all get a lovely break from work to celebrate the holidays while we department heads get everything ready for the new employees." Lucky ducks. At least she still got some holiday time. Ella went checked those two things off her mental check-list and moved on. "Now, before we move on, I'd kind of like to do a survey, discussion sort of thing here." Ella looked around at all of her employees. "I've been your department head for about three months now, so I'd like your opinion on how I've been doing. I've never held a position like this before, so now is not the time to be shy. Tell me what you like, what you don't like, what you want to change, what you want more of, anything you can possibly think of." She hoped to get some good feedback. "It doesn't even have to be about me. It could be anything from wanting another coffee maker to wanting more action in the field." So please speak up? And THEN they could move on to the GOOD stuff. The WORK. |
Sorry i'm late The moment her alarm went off, Alyss knew she was late. Usually she was up before her alarm ever got the chance to ring and it was just there as a last minute precaution. Rolling out of her more than inviting bed, she pulled on the closest outfit to her person and jetted out into her living/kitchen/dining room. The moment she entered, she was greeted by the love of her life with great kisses and caresses. Grinning at her own thoughts, the twenty seven year old grabbed her dog's ears and headbutted him gently. "Not today, Kane. Winter's coming to take you out." Grabbing her keys and other essentials, Alyss very nearly made it out the door... When she remembered with a sickening realisation that she had a meeting. Turning on her heel, she rushed back into her room and chucked off the loose track-suit bottoms and old jumper she'd thrown on and replaced it with a far more suitable outfit. Finally out of the house, she nearly took out a couple as she jettisoned down the street. Not even bothering to pause to apologise, it was their fault after all, she continued her pace all the way into the ministry. One good thing about working for Magical Creatures was the floor level. She hated taking the elevators and so whenever she had wanted to go to level nine, it had always been a trek and a half. Pushing a strand of loose hair behind her ear, Alyss rushed up the wide winding stairs. No-one ever used them at this time of day, it was always the elevators that were stocked full of people, desperately trying to make morning small talk. Ugh. That was another bad thing about heavily populated places. People always wanted to talk to you. It's not like they'd ever stop you on the street and have a full conversation with you, but when you were tightly packed in an inclosed space, that seemed to be fine. Finally reaching her place of work, the small brunette opened the door to the conference room with a sigh. Now to look like you know what you're doing. Plastering a smile on her face, Alyss walked to an empty chair by the table, "Terribly sorry I'm late, I haven't missed much, have I?" |

"Maybe one of your coworkers can fill you in on what you missed after the meeting." Because it was time to move on. Quote:
But since no one else seemed to be speaking up... "Alright then? Time to move on." They weren't very talkative this morning, unfortunately. Ella stood up and grabbed a small stack of papers up. She handed one out to everyone at the table. "This is our most current list of job tasks. Every part of this department has something to do, so make sure you all are on top of your game. Some of it is in-office work, and some of you will be going out into the field. No task is more important than the other. Every assignment is important." Just to clarify. Ella eyed them all for a moment, just to make sure that was clear. She didn't want any complainers. Text Cut: Job Tasks "An enlarged copy of this will be posted on the bulletin board in the work area so you all know what you're supposed to be doing. So... Take a look at each of your assignments. If you have any questions, please ask me. Otherwise, this meeting is dismissed and you are free to start working." Yes, it was sort of a short meeting, but Ella just wanted to get together with all her employees so they were all familiar with her. "Also, I expect a report of each of these assignments, either in person or in written form." Ella stood in front of her chair and waited for any questions or comments to be voiced, or for her employees to leave. "Take some coffee and cookies on your way out. I won't eat them." |
Is there going to be a certain place to RP the job? Quote:
