"Excuse me? Hello?" a young 17-year-old called hearing no sound as she entered an auto shop; she looked helplessly around for the owner. "Yes?" a voice answered a 20-year-old man popped out from under a ute, the girl jumped in surprise as he sat up and held out a greasy hand.
She stared before hesitantly shaking his hand, feeling the grime leave his hand. "Sorry to disturb you but I was here to ask for a job…" she grinned nervously getting her bearings of the place, his eyes widened before spitting out "Sorry I was about ta clean up until mah buddy Keith came in with a broken down ute and ah -." He cut himself off then started again.
"Mah name's Ellis." He announced pulling out a chair for the girl and himself, "I'm Janice, but you can call me Jan if you want." Janice explained pulling out a folder and placing it on the messy desk. Ellis opened it up before flipping through the pages reading all the information he could handle, "Well, I am impressed…Ah have never seen this kind of stuff before. You're in." he held his hand again but she pushed it away.
He chuckled at her before wiping it off with a tea towel, he handed her a small cap making her look at him quizzically. "Oh is there any attire I should wear?" she asked tilting her head trying on the cap for size.
"Naw, it's just a waste of time really." He assured going back to work under the car, Janice opened up the bonnet of the car pulling out a clump of oil stuck together. "I found the problem!" she yelled out watching him roll out and joining her, "His tank is leaking." She pointed out helping Ellis lift it out.
"Nice job Jan…I could get used ta you bein' 'round 'ere with me." He thought aloud rubbing her back lightly, she blushed before handing the tank to Ellis. He nearly dropped it but thanks to his muscles he lifted it easily onto the bench, Janice smiled knowing she wouldn't get sacked from here. Disclaim: Ellis and Keith Valve.
