Just the Beginning
Jude walked into the office building with her hair pulled back in a ponytail and white button down shirt and dress jeans. She walked up to her assistant and asked for her messages.
"Here you go Miss Harrison" he said handing her a stack of small pink slips.
"Thanks." Jude said walking into her office, glancing at the plaque on the door that said Jude Harrison assistant music column editor and flipping through them and throwing them down on her desk. Sighing as she started on the huge stack of paperwork in her inbox and thinking to herself I wish I could get some field work, this is a total waste of my time. Assistant music column editor my ass, more like the person they make do all the paperwork. As if they were reading her mind a voice came over the intercom and told the whole office area about the all staff meeting in five minutes. Glad to be off paperwork duty, at least for the time being, she stood up and walked down the long hallway and into the conference room. Sitting down in one of the twelve plushy chairs at the long oak table and watching all her co-workers file in thinking to herself not noticing her boss Georgia coming in and the room becoming quiet.
"Okay, down to business," the dark haired woman said "We need a story and we need one fast. I am so sick of being scooped by our competitors. Any ideas?"
There were a few murmurs and a few whispers. "Oh C'MON people, what do I pay you for, someone has to have something." This broke Jude out of her trance and she raised her hand and said "I have an idea."
"What is it?" Georgia asked gratefully.
"Well, it's more of a half of an idea," Jude said "we could get the inside scoop by going undercover."
"That is a great idea," Georgia said "Jude get right on that."
Jude looked up shocked. "What, me?"
"Yeah, unless you want someone else to do it. You asked for field work, since it was your idea I thought you would want it." Georgia replied. Jude smiled and nodded.
"Great, now next thing on the list…" Georgia continued, but Jude was too lost in her own world to even pay attention for the rest of the meeting thinking to herself finally my own story, this is gonna be good.
