"Ranko."
Ranma paused and glanced behind the bar where the restaurant's manager stood, dressed in a tuxedo without a jacket. "Boss?" she asked, pausing to glance at the bartender who was mixing the ordered drinks.
"I can see you're busy, but just wanted to mention that you're doing a real great job. Except for those looks of distaste which I complement you on hiding from the customers."
Ranma sighed, glanced at the three glasses on her tray, "Yes sir."
"Don't worry, you've already told me how you feel about the outfit. Tell you what. Keep cheerful another week, and if you still hate the outfit I should be able to connect you with some alternate jobs. I do know guy's who know guy's."
Ranma flashed a quick grin, "Thanks."
The bartender set an ice blue martini on the tray. Ranma immediately picked it up.
"Gotta go." She commented as she strode to the businessmen's table.
Her boss turned and walked into the back of the restaurant, pulled out the keys to his office, and unlocking the door of his office. Entering he locked it behind him, then walked to the bookshelf and with a practiced motion, slid it aside to reveal an alcove that had once been part of the storeroom.
"I do know people who can find you a new job, but I don't think you'll want a new job in a week, miss Ranko."
