Nine Lies About Work Novels & Stories

, Amber sounded dejected. A 9 to 5 job gives no time to do other things. Plus it's not what it looks like. It may be 9 to 5 but you always have to work overtime and it's too tiring. Plus her boss is a kind of evil, and always dumps extra work on her shoulders. That sounded like frustration, Juhee chuckled slightly and smile at her. " Alright! We are done here ", Said Juhee as she put down her hands. " Huh? Done already? But when did you...", Amber said in a shocked tone but when her eyes fell on the arm, she was even more stunned. " When did you?...".

She sighed, shaking her head. "You chose the date. We have a lot to prepare and that too in a short time. So we have to start making preparations as soon as possible." He put forth his point. "Ok, but I can't go to school tomorrow to submit the report. I was so embarrassed yesterday so the first thing I'm going to do is take a sick leave." She explained. "Seriously, Jess?" Cruz exclaimed. "Yeah! That's what 9 to 5 workers like us do to get a day off without having to lose part of our salary. We lie. A lot!" She said proudly, making Cruz laugh hard.

"But to be honest, you didn't even say a word just now, and you had done the test?" "Asking him to go to work tomorrow is my actual test..." "Ah..." Natalie really didn't expect that. She looked up at him and said, "Is that considered a successful interview? He obviously rejected you!" Hearing the voice, he smiled and patiently explained, "If he doesn't care about the interests of the previous company because of a little temptation, or if he is willful and carefree, it will be a trouble for me. What's more, much of my work needs to be kept confidential. A person with no principle will betray easily. This is the worst. Work abilities can be trained. No matter how smart a person is, he takes t

Nicole chuckled and put her phone aside, blocking out the outside world. "Nova Nine is biased and prejudiced toward their talents. Staying there would only be a waste of a talent like me," she went on. "I don't really care for Nova Nine. A company that cares more about personal connections than actual abilities wouldn't go far. I didn't intend on staying there for long, anyway. I was the one who resigned. They didn't fire me." Christopher looked at her. "You really don't care?" "Not anymore," Nicole said. "Chris, there's no need for you to fight with Nova Nine for my sake. I don't want to stay in a company with such a terrible work culture."

After saying this, Zoey left without looking back at Adrian, who stood there in shock. She was truly exhausted. Seeing Adrian again, her heart no longer raced—there was only calm. After ninety-nine times, her heart could no longer be stirred. For the next few days, Adrian didn't try to find her. Until company employees were huddled around their phones discussing a trending news story. "Oh my God, isn't this the heir to that major corporation? How did he end up in such a terrible crash?!"

I gave a soft, bitter laugh and slowly slipped our documents back into my pocket. “This makes ninety-nine.” “What?” “This is the ninety-ninth time we’ve tried to get our marriage registered.” I turned toward the subway entrance. “And the ninety-ninth time you’ve left me hanging because of him.” I heard her heels stop on the pavement, then suddenly start running after me. “The first time, you bailed on our trip because he was on the night shift and scared of the dark. You took a red-eye flight just to be with him. “The second time, we were practically at the door of the courthouse. You heard he fainted from overwork and left me standing in the snow alone for an entire day.”

They wanted to drag me down because they probably knew that a poor woman like me won’t be as successful as people like them who were born with golden spoon in their mouths. ‘I am working as part timer in coffee shop. And I am still single,’ these are the truth that I should answer. However, using the excuse that we won’t be able to see each other again in the future, I thought of a lie. “I am working in Gregorio Corporation,” I lied. Gregorio is one of the largest finance corporation. There are thousands of employees in their companies so I think they won’t find out that I am lying. ‘Right?’ “Really? Wow! I heard it is not easy to get a job in Gregorio,” Britney commented.

I ask, the smile could sell me almost anything but I need to know what it really means, what's waiting for me out there. "That means you can only work for another blue since they'll know how to treat you, your job starts at 9, and it ends at four, you have the right to a nap during the day, you are expected to eat lunch at work every day, you can have a cup of coffee daily, but nothing more than that," she explains. "Okay, I can do those," I say, those weren't the worst rules out there, I went through worse, I had worse jobs, and I had to run a million times before.

I don't like distractions in my company, if you are, you wouldn't be as efficient as you used to be," Nicholas walked to his seat, sitting down, as he adjusted his suit. He had said it so fluently. As if he knew the rules by heart. -Don't you think it's a little cruel? Maybe this job is my only income. -The company would pay you your normal salary every month," he answered this time without looking at me, just tracing some lines on a sheet of paper with a pencil and a ruler. Behind him were glass windows, he had a view of other huge buildings and in the distance you could see the Statue of Liberty. -So you would never leave me stranded? -Not if you are my employee," he replied. -But you woul

Zain held her close, "I didn’t see anything. I just wanted to be closer to you." Janine felt that dealing with emotions was quite exhausting. More tiring than working on projects. Zain asked her, "Why didn't you work at the Scholfield or Hilton Group?" Janine didn't intend to him too much. "I've done projects with them." That was not what Zain meant, but seeing that she didn't want to talk, he didn't push further.
