James

Just in case you guys are wondering who James is. James is a really good friend of mine. I consider him one of my best friends since I have so many best friends and I'm not lying.

This is how James and I met.

I used to work at Banana Republic and I did all the visuals, dressed the mannequins and pretty much made the whole place look pretty. Yeah, that's what I'm really good at. One day the company decided to renovate the store. After the renovation was done we had to go back to the store and re-organize the whole store ourselves(staff). Other stores came and helped us. During that time my shift was to put the shelves back in the wall.

We were all sitting in the backroom waiting to start work. Some unfamiliar faces were there. Few minutes before I was about to punch in, a really gay Asian guy come prancing along the backroom. I was like ugh, who is that bitch! Spikey chunky hair sprayed hair, black dress shoes, black dress pants, black and white plaid shirt, black cotton cashmere cardigan and a black coat...in the summer. Who in hell would dress like that in the summer?

Everyone starts punching in for work and of course I was one of the first and who's behind me? James. Yup, I punched in and looked at him and walked away. Yes it was pretty bitchy. Don't judge too soon tho.

So I went and got my schedule where I was assigned and started my duties right away. As I was putting the shelves in the wall, someone was talking to me. I turned around and guess who my partner is? OMG it's James. Yes of all people, it had to be James. He was like, (in a really soft slow voice) "Hi I'm James". I said, "Hi" and can you please start bringing all these shelves in the backroom and put them on top of the cabinet. Yes, I made the queen lift all the heavy stuff cause I wanted him to sweat in those clothes. hehehe

Anyway, after that day I've never seen him again. Few months later he transferred to my store. I thought it was the end of my life at Banana Republic. I was like, I love this job but what's with this guy. Little did I know that he was going to be my Assistant Manager. OH MY GOSH, even worse. This biatch is going to be my boss. Kill me now.

It took me a week to think about what I'm going to do and how I'm going to handle the whole situation. So I told myself, he is going to be my boss and might as well start learning how to get along with him. I started talking to him and trying to make conversations but at the same time, I wanted to puke all over him.

Weeks has gone by and my relationship with James has gotten alot better. We started to get along, talking more often and hanging out after work. Until one day we decided to go out for dinner together. During the dinner, we said everything we wanted to say to each other and get everything out of the way. We found out so much things about each other and ever since, James and Jojo has never been the same again.

Yes, ever since we became the best of friends. Two bitches do get along.
