Date: Tue, 3 Nov 2009 07:38:56 -0800 (PST) From: Rubber Rider Subject: Gets His CGA and Moves On You never know when I got a phone call from a good mate of mine the other afternoon who lives about 25 miles south of me asking are you free this evening? I said yes why; well I'm horny as hell and need company and things are work are basically lousy. Now Keith and I have been out of touch for over three years now due to me working well away from home so there was a lot to catch up on. You had better bring my snooze bag with you then crash on the chesterfield for the night that sounds like a good idea. OK give me about an hour and I will be there -- sounds good Keith, oh come in around the back way -- sure thing. Well I get changed prior to Keith arriving at place he suggested that I should feed my manhood into him. So here is a condom go for it; eventually everything came to the end after a great time So Keith what are you wearing? Basically shirt & jeans both being rubber and thinking about it never had any comments a few double looks by some folk however never anything impolite. I have also worn shorts and a tank top both being rubber when it's on the warm side and in fact I have gone into sea this way. My watch is waterproof and my wallet is in a zip-lock bag so everything stays dry. Must admit simply just walking into the sea or river has caused some folk to look very surprised. Keith it is amazing we are so much alike so what are you doing these days? Well I'm working for an accounting firm and by next year if all goes OK I will become a Certified General Accountant -- that is fantastic. So what about you John what are you doing? I'm working as a Construction Superintendent on major construction sites. Yes it's not always the clean office like you have to work in, however that does not worry or concern me. Yes I do have a very spectacular office in the companies head office but rarely use it and frankly I hate wearing collar and tie! In generally have an office on or near the construction site which is in easy access for the Foreman on site, these guys are my connection on what is going on the site. I love to get my boots on grab my hard hat and go on site and simple walk around to see for myself. I do not spy on my Forman or there crew, a good crew is what makes a Forman job much easier. Sounds like you enjoy your work, yes I do and it's the guys in the mud doing the hard heavy work are all great. On the whole our turn over of crew is barely above 5% where the average is in general 35 -- 45% so that makes me happy. Keith's comment well you know working in a fancy office is not all its made out to be, it is very clique and if your face does not fit you get the rough end. I will stick it out until I get my CGA and then I plan to move on -- at present I have no idea where. Keith I know our firm employees several CGA's you never know there might just be a vacancy when you are ready, just keep in contact with me. Oh I intend to if you are willing John; Now a year later. Keith and I have kept in contact despite the fact we live about 25 miles a part. I learned that Keith completed all that was required and his final examination and is now a fully qualified CGA. I contacted Colin as he is a great cook as I thought a true celebration was required; Colin agreed and said he would love to prepare a celebration dinner for Keith and I would include a couple of other good friends who were in senior positions. I thought this would be good and it was agreed that on the designated day I would pick Keith up but he would not be aware that a party was going to be held in his honor. I suggested a Saturday evening I thought I would invite Keith to come over after work on Friday and then return on the Sunday afternoon and bring some rubber of his choice so we could play if Keith so wished -- sure will I enjoyed myself last time it was a fabulous time for me. Keith drove over to my place on Friday evening get there about 8:00pm, on arrival Keith got freshens up we then went out to my favorite pub for a beer and dinner. We had a steak dinner to celebrate Keith's achievement. Come Saturday Keith ask what is the dress code for this evening, I said well I'm wearing rubber jeans and a shirt but will also take some other gear -- oh great said Keith he dressed similar to me then headed for Colin's house. On our way my cell phone rang, and pulling over to answer Colin was asking me to pick up some white wine no problem, so pulled into a beer and wine store Keith followed me, I said what white wine do you like? Keith found his wine a 02 grade of sweetness so I grabbed four bottles. Arriving at Colin's home, Keith saw other cars there and asks what is going on, I said I don't know, but on getting out of my vehicle we could hear voices around the back so heading that way but first grabbing the wine. I called out what the heck is going on, where is Colin over here mate! Well I think we both looked surprised as since it was a hot evening everyone was just wearing just a jock strap Keith was over whelmed and said guys what going on it's so nice to see so many well dressed guys, with that everyone came and hugged Keith saying congratulations mate -- well thank you I feel I'm over dressed for this occasion and should try and improve the situation please excuse me for a few minutes while I correct the situation. Keith said to me give me a hand please -- we return to the truck and both grab our backpacks. Well I said come with me Keith I know Colin's house and we go directly to the spare room and leave your gear here Returning to the party Keith was made very welcome -- Colin was introduced and this group here is to celebrate your success. So first lets crack open a few bottles and drink to Keith future, so Keith are you staying with your present employer or moving on to gain further experience. Keith first words were thanks guys what a welcome you have given me and it is especially nice to find what appears to be a great group of Guys. Colin is busy pouring the drinks so I go and assist him with his host duties and he asks me to get the trays of snacks from the kitchen and start to pass them around. By now the others have got Keith into conversation and from what I'm hearing they are all asking basically the same question. Are you planning on moving on and what area of accounting are you planning in getting into. You know I sort of have an idea of working for an industrial firm as I would also get a better understanding of what goes in the real world. I know from discussions that have taken place over the last couple of years some guys there look a little blank when a older member of he company make comments using old factual views of places he has been. I was interesting to hear the other comments and fact they were very favorable saying also once you have experience under your belt say over ten to fifteen years from now. Colin by now had passed drinks around and after more general talk Colin said look guys we here to celebrate Keith achievement here so how would you guys like your steaks done and then once supper is over I suggest that we all give Keith a good time -- Oh I'll look forward to that says Keith, careful Keith you leaving yourself wide open for self amusement and abuse by the rest of the guys here. A great meal was had by all, so let the fun commence Keith was guided into Colin's recreation room where Colin had one of these new inflatable couch / sling / you name it devices. The first thing Colin said guys please feel free to use any thing here, during this time others had convinced Keith to lean over the hump of the couch and they secured Keith into place and then went into the recline position. It was then I got the mask canister that was already primed and coupled each others masks. The coupling device also had a re-breather bag attached as well as the canister. Ready Keith to get relaxed and poppered go for it mate was the answer so I connected the canister and we both got a steady feed you OK Keith Oh yes it's great. Well take a good deep breath in and hold it till I say so and we will go on the re-breather for a short while -- sure thing OK then breath in hold it, I snapped the plug into the canister OK breath out and take it slowly. Oh man that not only good but powerful as we both slowly running short of air is when I disconnected the canister. We both stayed that way for about five minutes and went back on the canister. During this time Colin has got others to give Keith a good fucking and from the sounds he is really enjoying the whole event, very soon everyone has shot their load. Have to admit I have come more than once. By this time both Keith and I needed to come up for air. Our places were quickly taken by the others and in fact we all had a good time. It was soon early morning and Colin said no one is going home and don't want anyone to have a mishap driving etc. Now we can push the furniture back out of the way and get out the air beds that makes up for six people. I have a large rubber sheet for covering the air beds and a big rubber covered quilt plus enough pillows. I think it is time for night caps and since everyone is totally relaxed the night caps arrive so by about 3:00 am we had all crashed and I know I slept soundly cuddled up with someone. The next thing I knew was voices saying you going to sleep all day there is a big pot of tea in the kitchen go and help yourself. Finally everyone went home Keith came back to my place for another clean up and a change of clothes. Just before Keith is leaving I said our company has a vacancy for a CGA and it will not be all office work it will include some on site investigation that will mean you will be expected to wear overalls, safety boots and hard hat, now if you are interested take this piece of paper it has the contact phone number and the senior accountant name who you will find he is a great guy -- nothing stuffy about him. Thank you very much I will give this a lot of thought, all I said don't leave it too long if you are interested. Thanks so much for such a great weekend I had better head home and we will keep in contact don't worry and I will let you know my decision on that job. We hugged and Keith takes off heading back home. I set about washing my gear and hanging it up to dry when the phone rang and it was Jack asking did I tell Keith about the job opening I said yes -- great do you have Keith phone number yes it's a cell phone and he is on his way home right now. OK will give him an hour then I'm going to call him and see what his reaction is and by the way I sure like his attitude and he blended in very well with the rest of the group and I know my colleague felt he would be very suitable, thanks for the recommendation. Talks to you later have a good evening - thanks for your efforts John. Well I also had other laundry to do plus get things ready for work on Monday, I decided to have a light diner to-night so digging in my freezer I found a Shepherd's Pie so with some green vegetables that made my dinner. I finally sat down to relax having poured a suitable drink when the phone rang -- Hello; Hi John its Keith well I had only been home for about 10 minutes when my phone rang and a J. Morrison called me and said he was the senior accountant at the company you work for, firstly do you think this is a genuine call? I said the name is correct, - Oh well he asked me to come and visit him this week and given me a phone number to call him on. I ask what number he gave you, when Keith told me all I said that's his direct line, the number I had given you was his secretary's number. Don't worry Keith it is all above board, so what do you think? Well it was made very interesting, he asked me what I was earning at the moment, his reaction well I can offer you a considerable improvement on that -- must admit that makes things even more interesting. I do have several days owing me and will ask for next Wednesday to visit this J Morrison, OK Keith if you want to come the night before you are more than welcome to stay here and then you can meet early and this will let you return late afternoon ready for the next day in your own office. Why thanks very much that is a welcome idea. Well I had a busy first couple of days and during Tuesday I got a call from Jack our accountant advising me that Keith was coming in to see him on Thursday morning at 9:0am. Thanks Jack for letting me know as I have offered Keith the chance to come over on the day before and stay at my place and then be ready first thing the next morning as I said you like early starts however I have not given any indication who you are. Sounds good and thank you, by the way take Keith out for a good meal on Wednesday evening just get him relaxed so he sleeps well and charge it all to the company on your company card -- let me have a photo copy of the bill please. As you can expect Keith stayed over, we went out to eat and eventually return to the house, that was sure a nice meal even better since I didn't have to cook it either, thank you so much. It was a nice warm evening and I had the hot tube on so once we taken off some of our gear I said come on Keith strip off and join me in the Hot Tube. What a great idea, it sure didn't take Keith long to strip and we enjoyed a good 45 minutes in the hot tube and supping on a little brandy and then we finally went to bed. I got up my usual time which was 6:0am yes it's early but I like to check out work sites picking a random a different one each day, it also gave me a chance to meet up with my senior on site staff. I was in the bathroom when I heard Keith moving around and called out there will be some Tea and Toast shortly if you are interested -- thanks I'm be there in a few moments. Well I heard the other toilet flush and Keith showed up in the kitchen, I said make yourself at home. Oh by the way what time is your appointment? 8:30am are good time was my comment, Keith laughed saying that in the office he has been working they don't get in much before 9:30am especially the senior staff. Well I expect you will be clear by about an hour later and you may have to talk with other members of the company how ever here is my card and it has my cell number on there so you can let me know how you make out. Oh I assume you know where the office is located, well actually I have not checked it out yet. Not to worry it is easy from here let me get a piece of paper and I will sketch it out and it's about 1 mile away. I suggest you get there about 8:15 to 8:20 they like prompt folk and yes the office opens at 8:00am Monday to Friday. Look I will put my spare key outside come with me and I will show you right now, Keith looks says well I'm not really dressed oh no need to worry. So when you have cleared the office I expect you will wish to head home and it will give you a chance to change clothes -- Thanks John you have been a big help. I've got my stuff together and just putting my boots on as Keith returns to the kitchen, I'm getting the once over I know for my style of dress, then Keith says they are heavy boots -- oh yes I like lots of ankle support and a firm understanding. Well I'm off look forward to hearing from you later to-day just make sure you lock the door on leaving -- Good Luck! About 11:30am my cell rang and I saw it was Jack on the phone, Hi Jack what can I do for you? Well I think you had better leave your lunch in the frig and join me for lunch, ok where do you want to meet, I suggest our usual pub and before you ask yes I want Keith on our staff, tell you more when you get here lets say Noon -- Ok see you Jack. In the meantime Keith is in the personal office getting paper work done prior to joining the company in four weeks time. After this Jack has come down to meet him saying well I think we should go out for lunch so come this way and they head for the pub. John arrives almost at the same time and walks over to them; Keith looks surprised but is grinning from ear to ear. Jack says I would like you to meet our new member of the team -- I put my hand out to shake Keith's hand and congratulate him on a wise choice. I'm thirsty says Jack lets get inside and find a suitable seat, as we sit down the barman is over says hi guys what would you like, Jack says a pint all around of their choice and what is on the lunch menu to-day. Well that was all settled quickly and the pints arrived. I held my glass up Keith congratulation and welcome to the company and yes you will find a little different to what must have been in a stuffy office you worked for the last five years. Jack says Keith will be joining us in four weeks time as he needs to give four weeks notice but I have told him if he s free earlier then to phone me and we can easily advance his starting date. So it's not always a case what you know; but who you know, and as you can expect Keith joined sooner than expected as his old company was not happy with his prompt departure so basically Keith went on holiday for two weeks to clear his time owing and dealt with packing up all his possessions prior to moving. Luckily Keith was in a rented apartment so no selling was involved just a month notice. Keith phoned John to let him what was going on, and was asked have you let Jack know oh yes I did that right away. So what are your plans, well I'm packing up all my gear and plan to get a removal company to do the transfer to where ever I find a new place; OK do you want to rent or purchase. I think it is better to rent at first before I purchase so I can look around and make my own decision, it may take anywhere from 3 -- 6 months because I do not like to rush into these sorts of things. Well Keith it's up to you I have plenty of room here and it's a four bedroom home plus I have a very large outbuilding for storage of your gear. I tell you what why not come over several days well ahead of your starting day this way you will have a chance to sort yourself out and at the same time I will have a chance to fill you in on your out of office work as Jack has filled me in on what they are expecting you to be involved in. It's a sort of on site audit of what is really going on various projects. Yes it will mean very different style of dress; however I will be able to help you out in this area on what I would recommend. Thanks John I will appreciate that kind of help, looking at my calendar will it be OK to come over say next weekend and then I can bring some of my gear etc, no problems at all now I had better give you my cell phone number so that you can contact me if I'm not at home. Thanks John talk to you later -- bye. During the following week I got a young guy I know to clean out a section of the barn, I also made the place secure, got some more keys cut for the house and got a couple of matching heavy weight padlocks keyed the same as the house for locking the barn. Well the week flew by as we were fairly busy over several sites; I was just getting out of the shower on Thursday after work when the phone rang. It was Keith telling me he would be over Friday late afternoon -- sounds good. Now Keith do you remember that pub that Jack took you too for lunch? Yes I do well lets meet there as often on Friday I have a beer or two with some of my foremen and it would nice for you to meet them so dress denim jeans and tee shirt will fine. Well Friday came and after work I headed to the usual pub, I spotted Keith's car in the parking lot so on entry looking around I spotted him over in a corner where he could see all the comings and goings. I walked over and said Keith grab your glass and come on over and meet some of the crew, on the way there I indicated to the barman another round. We took our seats and then I said, hey guys you know we have been talking about having an accountant in the field to circulate around the different job sites. Yes was the general answer, well I would like to introduce Keith here who has accepted that position. Keith has recently got his CGA and now has to gain experience in the various forms of accounting, as I'm saying my part the barman is delivering the next round to the table. Someone said hey Keith great to have you on board and if you want to know about something then just ask -- here! here! came from the rest of the crew. Keith was asked are you local man; as I don't seem to recognize your face, no I come from Topnot about 25 miles away. That a bad road in the winter hope you're not going to commute; no I want to rent somewhere locally to start with and eventually buy a place once I have got to know the area -- that's a smart idea. Talk went from work related talk to more general chit chat and after about an hour most had departed with only one other left, so Jeff you going to join us supper here? You might just as well -- well that sounds like a pretty good idea. Once supper was over Jeff went his own way. Keith followed me home, it was a warm evening and like any day after work it was nice to get my boots and socks off. So Keith have you brought much gear with you because your car is rather small, well I have basically got my clothing and rubber gear and such like, I'm planning on renting a van to move the rest. So what have you in the way of furniture? Basically enough for a three room home. So why don't you get a moving company to do the donkey work of moving everything, then all you have to do is to generally sweep out the apartment etc. Keith says I don't even have to do that as the owners want to start re-decorating and other upgrades in the building and have already said here is your damage deposit so they will start with mine first. I have agreed to let them have to apartment at the end of next Saturday. I know several moving companies and the rates are much lower mid week so we will get a day sorted out, Jack I know will give you a day off to oversea everything so I guess we had better look at what I planed for your storage. I grab some keys showed Keith the barn and handed him the keys explaining the one key fits all locks around here. Over there is where you can park your car the carport actually can hold four cars or trucks, at least it keeps them out of the weather. So Keith you know doubt have had a busy day like me so I'm going to the shower to get scrubbed up and then hit the hot-tub. If you are interested you are more than welcome to join me -- well that is a nice invitation. First I'll get the gear out of my car and then park it for the night, which room John? Use the first one on the right it's got the bigger closet for your clothing than he other room. I'm still in the shower when Keith comes into the bathroom he quickly joins me, I'm sitting on the stool shaving at the moment and Keith says you have missed a bit let me have your razor and so he quickly cleans it up. I stand up hey scrubbed my back please and get into all corners if you don't mind. Well I had one of the best scrubs I've had for a long time and it sure felt good. I returned the favors before heading to the hot tub saying as I headed that way just come as you are and bring your towel. I got two drinks and decided on G&T's put them in the cooler bag placing them within reach, Keith was soon joining me and was asking question about what he should buy in the way of work gear when on site. I said first thing to-morrow morning I'll show you what I wear and give my own reasons however there are two things that are mandatory steel-toed safety boots and a hard hat and safety vest of Hi-Vis gear, as far as clothing there is a wide range, some of my foreman wear denim blue jeans & shirt other are more similar to myself we wear bib overalls. My reason is that even in the hot weather the looser fit allows an air flow between your gear and the body all gear needs to be cotton or canvas. The polyester fabric sweats too much when it is warm, however I do wear wool socks and if it's very cold a second pair of cotton one underneath but that should not be needed in your case. A matching jacket as well and would suggest two pairs of bib overalls and one jacket, for the office suits are hardly ever worn unless we are seeing a new client and at that time we sort of dress the part. Any questions shall we call it work dress and I got asked to come into the office should I be changing into something else -- absolutely not. The way you saw me in the office in overalls is totally excepted and I also have an choice there and most of time I'm in overalls however I will admit I do have a change of clothing there should I suddenly asked to join a conference with outside clients. So needing an urgent clean up is a shower etc off the men's room. However in your case I would not expect to occur in your case. Well thank for the info -- with that I get the cooler bag and hand out the drink. Keith is silent just relaxing which will do him good as I'm sure he has had a lot on his mind especially with the move to a brand new job that is going to be so different to what he was used too these last five years. Eventually Keith puts his glass down and slides under the water, suddenly he is giving me a wonderful blow job man he is good, he comes up for air and continues and says I need your seed and you will make me successful I know -- I'm cumming and Keith is sucking me like nothing you can imagine it's really so so good. Keith comes up for air and is asked would you like another drink of the same or something else, do you by chance have any over-proof rum -- Yes I do; that would go down rather well please. Just hold on while I get it, so that is how our first evening went, and finally we took another shower and washed each other out, had a night cap and went to bed. I mentioned to Keith that I did not generally get up at the weekend until about 7:30 had breakfast, got my bed and bathroom laundry going, then made up a shopping list and did all the grocery shopping so Keith that is how generally Saturday morning is spent. Now I expect you need to do some shopping and if you are getting work gear keep all your receipts, if you wish I'll keep you company as I could do with another pair of Bib Overall. Something we did not talk about was shirts it's your choice either a regular colored shirt or a Tee shirt. I personally prefer an open neck shirt as I find them cooler in the summer time and I think it look better, if you decide to go for jeans then I strongly recommend wearing bracers then you have no problem with your pants slipping down. The shopping went well and Keith offered to cook for Saturday evening I said go for it, just ask if you cannot find what you are looking for. Ultimately Monday morning arrived and understandably Keith is nervous (I think that is good) Well I gave Keith a good hug and said you will find Jack a great guy and he will help you out and don't forget about the some time off for next Thursday for moving day. So with that I started to leave for my site office but then returned to the house as I suddenly changed my mind, going back into the house and said hey Keith I know you are ready come on follow me into the office. Now I was going in about 7:45am a little late for me but this was a special day. I showed Keith where to park and said come on follow me as we went into the buildings back entry using my electronic key that turns the alarm off and releases the lock. We walk up to the main floor and about to take the elevator to the third floor and a voice behind says Hi John looks as if you have our new man there. I turn around Oh! Morning Jack I trust you had a good weekend sure did thanks. Let all go to the coffee room and have a drink should be quiet there. So Keith I know the first day always make you apprehensive but don't worry you will soon meet many members of our company. I know perfectly well John there has got you kitted out for work sites where you may possibly spend more time than in the office here, however I have got you an office to yourself so you can have peace and quiet when sorting out problems. Having finished our Coffee's let me take you on a tour, I said you will have to excuse me must go and see my secretary face to face for a change. I departed and went about my work. Jack took him on a tour introducing Keith to various members of staff finally finishing up at Keith new office. So Keith I hope you like what you see, the office faces East so it does not get over heated in the summer. In the corner there that closet is actually a mini kitchen so you can make yourself tea or coffee plus a tiny frig for milk and anything else you may need to keep cool. So now lets go back to my office, we entered passing Jack's secretary Hi June you remember Keith who came to see me, well Keith is joining our staff. Entering Jack's private office, please take a seat over there and I will get some things that you will need. Keith was given keys and electronic key to allow entry into the building and office. Now a question for you to answer you indicated that you were renting a house in Topnot so what is happening with all your personal effects? Well John has helped me getting a Removal Company to pack up everything next Thursday and then they will go into storage at his place and for the present I'm staying at John's so I can look around to find a suitable home. Well the most important thing for you is to be there while things are loaded up and then to be at John's when everything is unloaded. Just let me know when so please keep me up to date. Thanks very much. Next did you go shopping for work gear over the weekend, yes I did good I want all the receipts as the company will provide you with work gear as it is out of your normal realm of working area's and by the way I hope you enjoy a rather different style of working conditions. Now some other comments I would like to make, you may find it is better to collect your information and then come back to your office to go over things -- please don't think you need to change out of work gear into office garb. However I do suggest you wash your boots off to get any mud off before coming into the office. Oh that reminds me you will need a company logo hard hat and Hi Vis safety vest, Jack asks his secretary to get one, she says I assume white -- yes please. Now I'm going to hand you over to my assistant who will fill you in on why we are going this way. Come this way please Keith and we go though a communicating door into the next office and I'm introduced to George. And so work starts as I'm filled in by George as to what they think has been going on, it may mean setting up some form of simple paperwork and a daily check of material on site. In some cases you may need to have assistance with inventory so just ask John for that and he will make arrangements. Did Jack give a cell phone no but I have my own, well I will get you a company one and you will also need transportation. What do you drive at the moment oh just a small Honda car. That will not be suitable to take on site; I'll check with our transport boss and see if there is a small pickup. Lets change the subject, I understand you thoughly enjoyed the party at Colin's place the other week, well if you wish to be included again just let me know, well the answer to that is yes please I would enjoy a get together at a suitable time -- that is great. So Keith settled into his new job very well and once he found exactly what he expected to do he realized there was going to be a certain amount of detective work involved. After a couple of weeks in the main office it was now time to go out onto the first one of the work sites. So after a good weekend searching around the area at various homes it was Monday morning. Every day after work at John advice I wore my new work boots in the house to sort of break them in prior to use on the job site. Keith had never worn work boots before and the first time he pulled the boots on it gave him great sexually arousement. After the first week of wearing boots John noticed that Keith noticed I was not lacing them up enough so he did it for me on the Friday evening John said to-morrow we will do the shopping and anything else we need and you wear your work gear and we are going to do the same thing next weekend wear work gear all weekend so they don't look so new when you come with me on next week out onto the construction site. By this time Keith had a small company pickup and John had got him a file box that sat nicely on the passenger seat. Come Monday for Keith's first experience on a construction site, John said leave your pickup here we will be together all day and since John was the senior superintendent over seeing a number of projects covering distance of some miles he took me around meeting all the on site senior foremen plus their time keepers/receiver for materials. By the end of the day my head was spinning some what, but I really did enjoy was being out in the open, I was also surprised what the value of some of these projects were. Yes my legs and feet were aching but that is to be expected. John finished up at his site trailer on the largest project on entry John said you may need a desk here so lets clear this one off and he moved the desk so we faced each other and this way it made the fax/phone available to both of us. John then gave me a key for the trailer and said there are only three keys, the ones you and I have and a spare in my desk in the main office. We are also privilege having our own proper loo! So Keith what do you think and yes I know it was a lot to take in? Well my question is which site should I start with in your opinion -- Oh that's a good one, all have to be closely checked out. I tell you what why not go alphabetical order that way no one is sort of being pick on if you get my thoughts. Well Keith we are going to the Pub for supper and then home for a good scrub up, hot tub and bed for me. John laughs mate you have forgotten one major thing; Keith gives John a strange look! Hey mate unless you want to loose weight you forgot to get your lunch ready, with that Keith starts to laugh; well I guess I rob you to-day sorry about that don't worry I'll get you back when you don't expect it. You know I need to get a lunch box or similar, Ok we will stop on the way to the pub and I suggest an insulated bag and a freezer block. Time has come to close up the trailer, and we head into town do our shopping and onto to the pub have a couple of beers and get supper ordered and I decided we were going to have steak to-night. While there were a couple of the other foreman stopped in and joined us also for supper. I enjoyed that mate thanks you sure beats cooking. Arriving home we both now were stripping off our boots and socks, I wriggled my toes and have to admit that felt good. So how are your boots for the first day on the job? You know John I never thought boots could be so comfortable -- well that's why I sort of forced you into wearing them prior to regular use. I'll see you in the shower as we both strip off -- see you there. I get there first and don't hear John enter. The first thing I feel is my back getting scrubbed oh that is nice then John says sit on the stool and I will do your feet. Ok now you can do me -- thanks mate that feels so good. Finally we both grab a towel head for the hot tub we spend about 30 minutes there and then a cool shower, we don't bother to dress just wrap a towel around until we have dried off. I head for the kitchen and get my lunch ready or the morning, John is soon there doing the same thing once done we head out to the veranda and watch the sun going down I slip back in and get a couple of brandy's as a night cap. After about 30 minutes and a second brandy I get up and give John a big kiss saying good night. I hardly hit the bed and I was out of it, but I did have a great dream, I can't remember too much of it but was all about a Rubberman's Holiday where everyone wore rubber all the time and slept between rubber and spending time under water fully masked and on air. Then suddenly the alarm is going off its 6:00am. I hit the shower to freshen up and shave, John has already got the kettle on for tea. I'm soon into my work gear and you know I like the look of it -- dammed sight better than a suit. John says so where are you going to start to-day, well there is that small project out on Dogleg Road, I'm going back to have a look around as what's his name? Peter I think is the foreman that's right says John. So tell me about Peter how long has he worked for the company? Must be about ten years now and six of them as foreman on smaller projects, he has worked on larger projects but as assistant foreman -- thanks. Well we both leave and head off to our job sites; on the way there I call him on his cell to let him know I'm on the way over -- great see you when you arrive. Meeting up with Peter and said I just want to walk around the site and look for myself; now are there any area's that I should aware of? Nothing abnormal for a construction site; I soon hear ready mix trucks coming on site and see the mixers are numbered on the drum. From my location I can see the trucks coming in dumping and then leaving but I do notice that a couple of times the ready mix truck took very little time to dump -- I thought that's strange. I'm looking at the site entrance and see a truck load of plywood coming in, the receiver comes out and takes a look at the material and then directs the driver where to go. I didn't see the receiver checking the number of sheets that came off he appeared to just sign the sheet. I went to check the number of plywood sheets myself, I moved on having made a number of notes. It appeared that the ready mix had all been delivered so went to see Peter and asked to look at the delivery notes asking him what happens to these notes -- Oh I drop them off at the Super's office and after that I don't know. Thanks Peter I'm leaving now see you and thank you. This made me think it would appear the material losses could be happening right under there eyes and not realizes it. I check my list of sites and saw there was another site close by this time I didn't phone and walk into the foreman office just before lunch time. I said Hi its Jim I think -- are yes you're the new guy who was with John yesterday, that's right. Well take a seat I've just made a fresh pot of coffee. I look at my watch oh I see its lunch time as Jim gets his lunch bucket out of the frig; excuse me a moment I go and grab mine. We sit and talk and Jim says you know somewhere some how this outfit is getting rip off. Oh why do you say that, well I know one of the other sites appears to be using more material than it should be but I'm dammed if I know how it's being done? This gave me a good opening to discuss how his receiver handle incoming materials, like does he go and check what is actually unloaded and such like so you know what he has signed for is what you have got. Never thought of that -- good point I will look into it after lunch, so I assume you want to look around yes please, would you like me to come as well no that's OK but I'll see you before I leave. I head out and go for a high point where I can see what is going on over most of the site, this time nothing out of the ordinary appeared to be taking place. I also noted there was not too much inventory actually on site. I decided to head back to John's office and put my notes all into a daily log. John was not there when I arrived but that didn't matter but when he did show up I asked what happens to the delivery notes -- his answer was they simply go to the main office and are matched up with invoices and then paid, each site has a rubber stamp with the site name those notes are stamped and this helps in sorting. I tell John what I saw but said we have to be positive before doing anything about it. Does the company have a small video camera as I feel we need to video tape the ready-mix dumping and also have some one outside to follow the respective truck and trail him and see where he goes. I got a better idea I'm sure we can rent a wireless camera and put it in place at a weekend and then have the receiver in say your truck plus a second camera where we can identify the ready-mix truck and the location of the pour. Hopefully get a photo of the operator. After about three weeks Keith had collected a lot of evidence and had examined what the payables office did with all the delivery notes and invoices. About three months later one afternoon Keith was actually working in his own office putting the final touches to his report when Jack called in, Hi Keith so how are you making out as I hear from John you have made some interesting discoveries -- well I'm just getting my final report ready for you and John, that's sounds great however I want to present it just to yourself, George and John in the first instance That sound fair enough, when would you like to do this? I'm suggesting Friday morning and we will need a video tape player and monitor and after discussion you have the weekend to think it over. OK then Friday morning 9:00am in my office as its private there. Friday was an eye opener to those present; we had lots of constructive discussion and John said he was going to suggest that once we have a plan formulated then we have all the foreman in together and explain what you have found and the cost two the company. Then ask for their input as well, that sounds like a good idea we will do it. I tell you what there is a stat holiday coming up for the crew next Friday when they will not be working we will ask all the foreman to come in on that day treat them well, the local hotel has a good conference room let me see if it is available right now so Jack gets on the phone and finds it available and books it for the day. Well time is getting on I think it would be a good idea to go to the hotel right now look the room over and let them know what we would like etc then we can have a couple of drinks and head home. At the hotel all arrangements are made including a soup and sandwich lunch, we all then head for the bar, Jack it's on the company so what would you like, well I think everyone had beer. George turned to all of us and said I think we need some relaxation this weekend does anyone have anything special going on? We all sort of looked at each other and said no, good then Saturday afternoon say around 2:00 pm meet at my place, and I'll make sure the hot tub is warmed up -- of course you all know the requirement regarding dress said yes the weather forecast is not that good so bring your waterproofs! That brought some laughing from everyone, Keith you don't know my place but John will show you I'm sure and I hope everyone likes a tee-bone steak with corn and salad sound good, would you like us to bring anything? Just yourselves and your thoughts as I think we could continue our discussion so we will call it a working meeting. We all went our separate ways as was normal on a Friday both John and I went to the pub to meet up with any foremen that may be there. Some of them gave me a bad time as they said I as dressed to well. I said I have spent the last week in the main office checking my figures and needed to dress the part as I was dealing with a number of senior staff, must be tough wearing a tie, I said no tie just as I'm at the present. Well I got plenty of ribbing but that is OK I don't mind at all. We both ordered the special of the day for supper; afterward I said to John I have some shopping to do before I go home anything you need? Not that I can think of but let's go together, finally completed the shopping task and once home the truck was put away and closed the gate... I had hardly got to the back veranda when John grabbed me, I said watch it I've got eggs in this bag -- Ohooops I will get this load into the kitchen and John said no excuses as he grabs me and gives me a wonderful kiss, we hug and I force my tongue into his willing mouth, eventually we break apart -- whew what was that all about. My way of congratulating you on your efforts and the way you put things over to Jack and George well done thank you. John stripped off threw his overalls etc into the washing machine and got that underway and was now balls to the breeze before I knew it John was undressing me and I quickly got an erection John grabbed it and lube me up then rolled a heavy condom down my weapon and added more lube -- then suddenly he says take me I need a good fucking because I should have spotted some of those things going on -- my pleasure. Don't mess around just jam it well in; with all that lube I slipped in with little effort. Well Keith never did buy a house as John proposed to him asking for his hand, and then said pleased accept as we are as good as married right now as we have lived together now for almost 12 months. I like to think we see eye to eye and must admit you have been good for me and although we work for the same company you have earned lots of respect from the foreman and think a lot of that is due to being dressed similar to everyone on site and neither mud or any dirt does seem to concern you. Now that has to be very different to what you were doing, it would be interesting to be the fly on the wall in their offices when they see the next edition at the month end of "The Accountant". Keith is looking puzzled, what are you on about John, well a friend of yours has done an article on the work you have done and the changes that were made to help prevent material loss and the cost saving to the company. A few days later, was the end of the month and on Keith's desk in the main office was a copy of the next months "The Accountant", Well Keith read this report and felt both embarrassed but secretly he felt very of chuffed about who ever did this article. That evening while John and Keith were having supper, the phone rang when John answered the caller was asking for Keith may I ask who is calling, yes its Jim from Topnot well just a moment Jim -- I call out hey Keith are you there it for you, as Keith comes around the table I just say it's Jim from Topnot. Hi Jim what can I do you for you? Great to hear from you Keith; and before I go anywhere my congratulations on what you have done! What do you mean? Well that article in the "The Accountant" where you saved the company what was it close to $500,000.00 I think. So what has been the reaction in the office back there, some of them are saying good for you others are sulking. So please tell me from what I understand you were actually on many construction sites, yes that is correct. Surely it was hard on your clothes, no not really as the old office gear that I used to wear only comes out of the closet for special occasions, I wear the same as the foremen and general superintendent wears. Overalls, steel toed work boots, check shirt and hard hat. Don't know if I could do that, well Jim you should try it one day; it will feel like it's a weight off your shoulders and frankly I really enjoy this change of work style. Anytime you want to come over and see what I actually do you are more than welcome. Oh you really mean that, certainly I would not make an offer if I didn't mean it - please think about and in fact you can stay with me and my partner. Well I'm off next Thursday and Friday which would be the most convenient. Just hang on a moment I quickly fill John in -- go for it mate give him the Royal Tour. Tell you what Jim come over to our company offices on Thursday say about 2:00pm just ask the receptionist for me and stay over with us and I will take you around several of our job sites. Don't wear a suit, wear something comfortable like jeans and a shirt or tee shirt and for the second day some older jeans that if they get dirty no harm is done. By the way do you have any safety work boots or shoe -- sorry no, OK then what size do you wear, OK we can lend you something but bring two pairs of thick socks as my boots are little larger. After I hung up the phone John said to me, what's this guy like? Well when I suggested he stays over with my partner he made no comment. Personally I think he is a guy who is unsure of himself and needs a little kind assistance to guide him in the right direction. Anyway we will both see how he responds, John suggests that if he would like to stay over till Sunday it was OK with him -- my comment was OK lets see how it all works out. Thursday I have just come into the office after doing some checking on a job site when my phone goes, Julie our receptionist said there is a Jim White to see you, thanks Julie I will be there shortly and collect him. I wash my hands as they were pretty dirty and then go and collect Jim. Hi Jim sure nice to see you like to come this way as I headed back to my office and on entry Jim say's is this your office I said yes and I do not share it either. Well Jim says this better than most of the offices are our place. Well this is the office I have had since joining this company, and let me tell you it is the best move I have ever made. So let me tell you what I do and by then we will go back to our place; Keith you mentioned your partner is that male or female -- Oh male of course, I was watching the reaction in Jim's face and it appeared to be one of relief! So Jim do you have a partner? Not at the present but looking so what sort of person are you looking for? That's a difficult question to answer -- sorry. So where are you parked? In the visitors area good I'll meet you there and you can follow me home. So I showed Jim out of the building, then went back to my office collected my personnel items and went to my truck and to meet up with Jim. Ready Jim follow me please and we headed for home, arriving there I parked and showed Jim where to park, grab your bag and I'll show you your room however first I'll get my boots off. I can see Jim watching me and at the same time he is looking at my work gear as well, we then head down the hallway to our spare room. OK Jim here we are please make yourself at home, bathroom is there so make yourself comfortable and I'll see you out on the patio. While Jim is freshening up I get my boots and overalls off and grab a pair of cameo shorts. I grab two beers and put them in coolers and head for the veranda. A few moments later Jim shows up and I hand him a beer. So Jim tell me what was the reaction to that article, Jim starts laughing you should have seen the senior partners; they were almost in orbit mad as hell that you should get this write up. While we are talking John arrives home, I get up and "putting on the act and" give my partner a good kiss so how was your day mate? But first I must introduce you to Jim an old co-hort from my old office. So Keith what are you planning for supper to-night, well since we have a guest I felt that to-night it would be nice to go out for dinner well that sounds good are you paying? Yes of course. Give me time to get a shower; well actually I need to do the same thing would you excuse us please, there is more beer in the frig; please help yourself we will be as quick as possible. We head for a local restaurant and had a great supper; I had put the hot tub on before leaving so we could all have a good soak later in the evening. On return home I said to Jim are you going to join us in the hot tub, oh I haven't bought any swim trunks that's is no problem we don't wear anything anyway saves washing and drying Are you guys sure you don't mind. No problem at all Jim, but if you feel uncomfortable I have a pair of rubber swim trunks that you can use -- RUBBER says Jim, yes that is correct. You know I have seen sites on the internet re-rubber clothing and have wondered what must be like to wear. Well I think we can be of assistance to you in that area but we will leave that until to-morrow evening. While John is talking to Jim, I head in and get lunches done and do an extra for Jim I've already decided in my own mind we will all met up in John's trailer office where I have a desk. On return to the veranda John ask what have you been up to? I have just done our lunch buckets plus I have done similar for Jim, my plan is to meet up with you for lunch in your site office. Sounds good and I thought you could explain how site cost are controlled as I think Jim here is thinking ahead of going that route if you know what I mean. Then ultimately we do our normal thing for a Friday -- that's sounds great and I assume Jim you will stay with us at least Friday evening and hopefully Saturday. So Friday morning Jim did have some old jeans on but now for Safety Boots, I made sure that the boots were well laced up snugly -- so Jim how do they feel? Different the only trouble it's effected me in other ways -- I'm laughing you got a hard on? Well a red faced Jim says yes, no problem go and give yourself a hand job unless you require my assistance, you mean you would help me -- sure no problem at all, come on lets head to the bathroom. In no time Jim had lost his load and had a good pee so thing went back to normal. I had already got Jim a Visitors Hard Hat and safety vest; I decided to go to the small site where I started to see what has happened since my visit earlier and then slowly showing Jim various items that need both a detective style of mind and use of good common sense. Eventually we arrive at the Site Superintends Office and I let myself in, oh Jim would you bring the cooler bag in while I get some coffee on the go. Will not be long these coffee machine are fairly quick in producing coffee. Jim grab a chair and rest your butt, Jim had hardly sat down when John showed up, sorry mate I had planned to have the coffee on before you got here. John asks so Jim what do you think about this type of work, very interesting and when you look at the folk involved they seem to be far more relaxed and not up tight like our office is. Hum that is not a good working environment sorry but you need to get out that place pronto. After a lot of chit chat while eating our lunches, John says I gather you would like to know what I actually do so let me explain. While John is talking my phone rings, on answering it was Jack asking where I was and could I come in to the main office to see me ASAP. No problem I'm be there in about 15 mins. Hey John, Jack wants to see me urgently I'll leave Jim with you, hope that is OK no problem. I meet up with Jack and he say lets go into my office, sorry if I was interrupting anything, not at all John is explaining the duties that he is expected to carry out. Well did you know Tm who worked in the background double checking invoices and other paper work never really meet him but I had heard of him -- fair enough says Jack well the poor bugger was found dead in his bed this morning. That's terrible, well we need to fill that job quickly your thoughts on your visitor? That's a difficult answers to give however he is single looking for a male partner. I tell you what give me a couple of hours and I will let you know and if I think he may be the man then there will be a party at our place in dress! Thanks Keith keep in contact -- will do, bye. I phone John hey there where are you? Heading for the Pub with Jim, Ok see you there. I enter our regular Pub and soon spot John and Jim; they are in deep discussion so I head to the bar and order another round and then head for their table. Hi guys how have you been making out, very well you know Jim here wants to try out some rubber gear, which is great so it's party night to-morrow night. Hey why not I think we might be able to get a couple of special friends over to join us, what do you think fine by us was the general comment? Excuse me a moment I need the wash room, as soon as I'm out of sight I phone Jack on his cell, Jack Saturday evening party full dress code suggest you contact George to help with the assessment sounds good -- thanks Keith, oh where are you? Or do I need to ask -- you got it right at the pub good I'm going to join you later once some of the foremen are there don't identify who I am and thanks -- see you later Well several of John's foreman came into the pub, and the usual BS took place, finally Jack showed up, several of the foreman brought Jack into the conservation that was taking place. As several of the foremen left Jack asked who our visitor is so I introduce hey Jim meet a good friend of mine Jack he also works for the same company as I did. Jack asks Jim what sort of work he did and where he worked, then saying is it the same place that you worked Keith? Yes it is, well I guess you have been catching up on all the gossip of your old working office, tell me Keith would you every consider going back to that office -- Absolutely no way, tell me why -- the first thing is that office was very ridged in dress must show the professional appearance, secondly employee's should never query with their superiors. So Jim what do you think of our operation, very different and a much more relaxed attitude to the employee's Saturday afternoon we are all doing some tidying up of the yard, making sure the hot tube is clean and its heat is on. Jim asks what should I wear, I said I will lend you some rubber gear like jeans, shirt or would you like to go really open such as rubber Jock, Rubber Chaps, Rubber tank top etc. Well no one knows me here lets go for the chaps etc. I slap Jim on the back and say good for you Jim you will not regret it. I head for the frig and get a round of beers out and once everyone is settled down, its George that does the questioning of Jim by asking what type of work do you do. George is actually sitting next to Jim and has roaming hands and says I like the way you dress, why thanks says Jim. Have to admit the gear is not mine but Keith was kind enough to lend what ever I felt comfortable in. So Jim what sorts of things do like to take part in on your non working times? Well I love soccer it's a great sport and all the team supports you even if you screw up and afterwards the locker room is like a private club, the one that fucks up get well and truly fucked by all his mates. So Jim have you ever fucked? I regret to say yes many times -- and did you enjoy it -- well yes it was a sort of punishment. By now several rounds of beer had been consumed, and John said I think it's about time I got he BBQ underway so Jim how do your steak done -- oh medium please. Jack heads my way and ask have you every fucked Jim I said no as I didn't know he was that way, no problem leave it to me. Jack has a discussion with George and basically asks him to get Jim prepared Eventually George says Jim I would like to fuck you after dinner this evening are you game oh that's a surprise, how come? Well at present you have not done anything wrong but I'm sure we can find an excuse says George as he slaps Jim on the back. By the way Jim you look good in your rubber and very tempting John did us well with the BBQ steaks, corn on the cob and salad; then we finished up with peach pie and ice-cream. Many questions were thrown at Jim asking about his experience and the type of accounting work he was doing. Well eventually George got his way with Jim and took him aside and fucked the heck out of Jim, I spotted them going like hell and went to join them and took over from George. My way was different as I talked to Jim and said how long have guys been fucking you, well ever since I was at school. So have you returned the compliment? Oh yes many times, so do you get tested regularly? Well the doctor I use understands and it was him that suggested I had a test every three months originally but now that has been reduced to every six months and I'm clean as a whistle -- good for you. Do you have any regular clients to look after; no not as yet basically I'm double checking tax returns at year end and doing similar work with our accounting department. Well during this time I have been slowly fucking Jim and I'm very near to cuming as I speed up I feel my balls rising and then I tell Jim and he clamps down on my manhood and I shoot many times finally coming to rest on top of Jim. I slip out as Jim says you're heavy mate as I roll to one side, phew that's better -- Thanks and Jim hugs me tightly. Well the guests departed but not before telling John try are get him to come for an interview ASAP and a Saturday is OK. Time is now around 10:30 pm and I suggest we all get into the hot tub while I get some liquor poured for a night cap. Well Jim had pulled his boots off and then went straight into the pool dress in his rubber whereas John and I simply stripped and went into the tub balls to the breeze. John started on Jim ever thought of moving on to another job, well no but I have stayed there because I was looking after my Dad but he passed away about six months ago. So what sort of home do you have? Just a simple three bedroom house that now belongs to me, well I'm sorry to hear about your dad but these things do happen. Jim's reply was Dad was in a lot of pain for the last six months so in effect it was a great relief for him and frankly me as I now get proper nights sleep. Well I can understand you not changing jobs, you're a qualified CGA and I think it is about time you made a move and made a fresh job in a new location. So what are your thoughts after seeing what Keith is doing, to me he is enjoying his work as he out and about, I actually think he likes to be out on the various construction projects and I can tell you he has earned the respect of all the foremen and all the senior trade folk. You know John seeing Keith out there he makes me jealousy in getting job with a company like this one. Jim are you suggesting you would like to work for the company if a vacancy came up -- you know I really would because what I have seen so far the management attitude is so different, more relaxed and I believe it results in better working relationships. Well Jim do you have any more days off coming, no not at present. Do you have anything special on next Saturday no well keep it free please because I would like you to phone this number the senior accountant J. Morrison he is not a stuffy person in fact he is good fun, will you promise me to do that -- yes I will; what is the best time to contact him I suggest about 8:15 am. So please let me know how you make out, now he will most likely ask you to come over to the office for an interview and I know he is wiling to be there on a Saturday as he will realize you cannot take time off and by the way if you wish to stay over night please be our guest. Thanks for your help so I guess I should go to bed as my head spinning with so much going on. Well Jim come on lets just sit outside with Keith and have a second night cap -- there is no rush to get up in the morning either and in fact I think we should go to our favorite Café for Brunch and that will tide you over until to-morrow evening -- come on Jim. The next weekend Jim stayed over as the interview was in the afternoon and was taken out for dinner that evening, during the evening Jack phone John and said you two come and join us for an after dinner drink; see you shortly says John. Hey Keith we need to get spruced up and meet up at the Hotel to meet up with Jack ASAP, on my way, I head for the shower to freshen up Keith joins me. A quick kiss and we dry off and decided I'm wearing a good pair of dress jeans and a polo type shirt, Keith does something similar. We arrive at the hotel and ask the head waiter where Jack and his party are? Oh they are in the #2 private dining room l will show you there. As we enter Jack gets up and say's thanks to the head waiter, come on in and join us what would you like to drink. Well I would like to introduce you to our newest CGA employee Jim; we both go over and give Jim a good hug -- congratulations and welcome, Jim face is priceless smiling from one end to the other so when are you starting in one month's time. Jim fitted right into the office and is now looking for a suitable small house in order not to travel every day from the far side of Topnot. We have offered our spare room while he looks around the area at homes listed for sale, after two weeks of driving from his own home he took up the offer staying from Monday night till Friday morning. His weekends are being spent sorting out and packing his effects prior to a move. Well Jim was lucky as he found a suitable house; it did need complete re-painting inside and outside; John arranged for that to be done at cost, also the moving was done with lots of help from many of the guys from the office and elsewhere. Well the Saturday of the move everything went well plus the weather did its part by staying dry. Once everything was in the new house Jim produced from a large cooler box a bunch of steaks and corn already wrapped in foil and then a second cooler chest packed with beer and ice. OK guys help yourself as Jim opened up the beer cooler, Jim then went a got the BBQ fired up that was easy since it was propane fired, soon the corn was in to cook sometime later the steaks were put on and so everyone was well feed. Jim's new back yard is nice and private with a dense screen of trees and a good solid fence around the rear portion. The back yard face S -- SW so you get the best of the sunshine if up close to the house. Prior to eating many of the guys had taken off their shirts in order to cool off especially as the sun had come out with lots of warmth. Jim vanished for a short while and came back wearing loose fitting rubber shorts and a rubber singlet. Hey guys, Jim is one of us by the way - Jim was overwhelmed by the response to that comment. Well we will leave it there and as you all know what happen that evening -- we had a dammed good party. Jim soon got the hang on how things work at his new place of employment; the most difficult thing was the way people reacted to him also wanting to help out. The other nice thing was the variety in the work, now on one occasion George came into the office and asked me how I was getting on I said great and commented to George on the good reception that he has received from others in the office. George said now it has been suggested that perhaps you might like to see how some of the paper work originates on the job site. Well that would be interesting, good says George however I doubt if you have any safety boots but that can be soon rectified and I am sure you have some older jeans etc that will not hurt if they get dirty. Keith feels that we should be able to stream line some of the paperwork so there no duplication. In a couple of weeks I would like you to be prepared to spend some time on various site but first sit down with Keith here in the office and trash out what he is looking at. Well thank you George as it sounds very interesting proposition. Jim is laughing as folks with my old employer would look down there noses at any suggestion like this, I remember that write up in the Accountant regarding Keith; the principles of the company went ballistic and were ranting and raving over the write up most of the younger ones were saying good for Keith and getting a good chuckle over the action from those upstairs. Jim and Keith meet a number of times and were looking at the handling of the invoices; Keith told Jim what happened in site. Jim decided to put the sequence all down in order on paper and confirmed this with Keith; then returned to the office and did the same time. One question that was needed answering was, how did the paper work get to the office? Apparently it was all faxed and the originals were delivered at a later time when John had to visit the office. Jim is sitting back in his office and then suddenly wonders how the employee's time get passes on to the office. On investigation he finds it is scanned and transmitted via the internet using a secure server located in John's site office. So why can we not do the same thing and use the sort ability for the different job sites and then a sort of the different suppliers. Jim on returning to his own office he has discussions with the company the Computer System Administrator Joe and explains what he would like to do. The answer was give me a week and I will see what I can do; Jim advices Keith on what he has set in motion. Keith's comment was that could speed up payments and also reduce errors. Later that day George dropped by the office and asked Jim if he had come up with anything. Jim said yes and he planned to ask John & Keith to meet with him and explain what was going on as there might be some other ideas Sounds good please let me know as I would like to sit in on the meeting. The end result George sat I the meeting and over the next three months changes were made, these changes resulted in a reduction of simple errors and sped up of payments of bills which made the suppliers very happy and also it was very PR for the company. Jim received a nice little bonus for this extra work, George suggested to Jin that maybe a general audit of how all the payables be done at a later time let me know what you think. Therefore, Jim blended into the operation very well, he felt like a cloud had been taken off his shoulders. Over then next year Jim had improved the efficiency of the payables section making the supplier's very happy and them an even better price from the suppliers. About six months later "The Accountant" gives a write up on what Jim has achieved. So he did a good job and enjoyed also his time out on the construction sites so life went on for both Keith and Jim both enjoying the work that they are doing. Several month later they heard that there old company was going out of business, they both felt very sorry for some of there old fellow workers. George called a meeting with John, Keith & Jim, guys I have some good news we have a contract worth $3,000.000.00. This is the highest value contracts we have ever received. I think we need onsite control of the invoices and a close audit running all the time. Therefore, my question to you Jim & Keith is there any one in your old company that you would employ in this company. They both say that we will have to think about this so please, we will endeavor to give you an answer by Monday. George says that makes sense if you want to phone any of then please come into the office and use that phone. The result we came up with a possible three guys and pass this list over to George for consideration. George reduced it to two guys. George arranged for the two guys to come in for interview, and at the same time invited the winner to join in to a party to be held at private location. Therefore, another member of Keith's old employer joined our crew. Therefore, life went on and the relaxed attitude to all employees really pays off. The End
