Eye Candy

It’s amazing what a good looking face can do to a group (or should I say “a gaggle”?) of women, particularly eye-candy-deprived women.

 

It was quite amusing to watch, really. They were like friendly vultures circling their prey. No real intentions to devour, of course. Just to look their fill. I hope.

 

These women… they could get really inventive when finding an excuse to be in the viewing vicinity of their target. I’ve had to field various reasons, one more ridiculous than the next. It was hilarious! The best kind of amusement I’ve had in a few weeks really. I am heartily thankful for it.

 

Unfortunately, while I do appreciate the tall, dark, and very good looking bloke who made the happy mistake of entering our work premises to seek employment within our erstwhile organization, he is not my Mr. Darcy.

 

I’ll have to sit out this dance a little bit longer, I believe. I don’t mind. I’m sure my Mr. Darcy would make his way through the assembly crush and find me tolerable enough to tempt him to dance a reel. Maybe he might discover that I have fine eyes, too.

 

No matter. Eye candy is always a good distraction. It helps make my day lighter and more interesting. Maybe I should ask our HR Department to include that requirement for applicants…? Oh, wait! Here’s another novel thought! Maybe I can get our HR to find me my Mr. Darcy!

    Amusing? Not when the whole female population of the company asks you, through msn, to have them transferred, to reserve a workstation beside him, or ask about anything I do not have any idea about. Believe me, IT WAS THE BUSIEST DAY OF MY LIFE!

    can u pls add the ff::
    1. that the eye-candy applicant should be single...
    2. *as cathy mentioned yesterday*
    IF he is married, this should be included in his contract:
    "We are not liable for our actions when you are around!" :p

    and this statement comes after how many years with the company?! and after how many female colleagues have wailed and lamented on your shoulders and to your face about the lack of good looking men in the company?!
