It's Been Real

Like any new employee, Pastor AB was thrilled to start a new job. Seeing as how her previous work experience was comparable to reality television, she was ready to start anew. Not wanting to burst her bubble, B and E went along with her joyous air. When AB commented on how nice and friendly people seemed, they simply smiled and nodded.

The first time AB and B met, B had a large banana on her desk. Little did B know, this ripe, decadent banana would become the topic of a lengthy conversation. Although B could hardly understand the low talker, she realized AB was allergic. From then on, B would associate AB with a giant, whispering banana (with a toothless grin).

AB deemed herself wise and gave the girls much advice. After all, she was the pastor of an online church, hosted an internet talk show, and was Facebook friends with J-Lo, Tyler Perry and Tom Cruise (before he tried to convert her to Scientology). She coached them on the importance of saying hello to ones boss and being aware of ones surroundings. Apparently, the building had an unknown roach and hornet infestation. Wild turkeys grazed the parking lot, and mice flew from ceiling vents into unsuspecting purses. The place was a zoo. 

One day, AB was determined to acquire a yellow racing flag. She scoped out offices and questioned people like a wide eyed tarsier. Finally, AB found someone who "didn't want the dumb thing anyway." She returned to her cube, waving the flag with pride and a crazy gleam in her eye. She hung the flag high and stared at it longingly while the day passed her by.

Unfortunately for B, AB didn't hesitate to ask questions, even while B was on the phone. B spent precious moments of her time (that she can never get back) explaining that Rhode Island is in fact a state and is not apart of Massachusetts. New York City is in New York State, and all of which are in the northeast.

Fortunately for B, Wednesday is her last day. AB will be left to man the new sales team, and its future is in her hands... Best of luck to you, AB. It's been real!
