An/ Here is the next chapter, bear in mind that I actually don't run a federal agency, I'm just a simple plant breeder working in a greenhouse, I have no experience about how the job interview is supposed to go, either way, this is how I let it go so take it for how it is in my story.

Also I want your input I could make it ALL about the case and little about the actually getting to know each other or a little less about the case and getting to know each other while here and there parts of the case.

I also want to thank everyone on the support on the other chapter and for the condolences.

Chapter eight

Tony looked at the tall building and sighed.
He wasn't nervous, really he isn't.
It's just that his former captain put in jet another complaint about unwanted behavior.
He did that before, Saïd he was sexual harassing female coworkers, and though he does like women, he would never harass anyone!
He just hoped that the director of this federal agency would be able to see past these reprimands.
'Hello, I'm Anthony DiNozzo, agent Gibbs and director Morrow are expecting me.' he says to the agent standing guard.
'What about?'
'It's a ehm, it's about a job interview.'
'Are you sure kid? Gibbs isn't really the type to hire people.'
'Yes I'm sure...' Tony replies. He wondered what the man meant with that, would Gibbs be that horrible to work for? He seemed like a nice guy, a good father and kind husband.
'Pin this on to your jacket and wait here, an agent will be here to pick you up in a minute.'
Tony gave the man a nod and looked around.
The security was way higher than in his old precinct which makes sense since this is a federal bureau and not a policy department.
'Het, your late,' came Gibbs' voice.
'I'm not...am I?'
'In my book you are, follow me and try not to get lost,' Gibbs says before walking away.
Tony almost in a state of shock, had to run to catch up to him.
'Gibbs...can I ask you a question?'
I'm sure you can DiNozzo.'
Tony not to sure what to make of Gibbs right now cleared his throat.
'I meant, may I ask a question?'
'I know what you meant DiNozzo, get it off your chest.'
'I have a lot of reprimands in my file Gibbs, some are rightly given others not.'
'You should take a look in my file, by now it's probably as thick as a book.'
'You wouldn't say...' Tony mumbles.
'What's that?' Gibbs asks with a raised brow.
'Nothing boss, absolutely nothing, I'm just worried that director Morrow won't accept me because of some falsely given reprimands.'
'It won't be like that Tony, Morrow's a fair guy, won't judge you on some reprimands, besides, you have a big advantage.'
'Yeah? What's that?'
'The fact that I want to hire you, I'm a bastard to work for and I don't just hire anyone.'
Tony seemed what more relaxed at that.
'Thanks boss.'

He looked at the nervous young man in front of him. He had seen him and Gibbs come in, at first he wondered what Gibbs would want from that kid, the man didn't look a year older than twenty-seven.
Morrow took a deep breath before starting their conversation.
'So I assume that you want the job Gibbs offered you?'
'Yes sir, I really think I could learn a lot from agent Gibbs.'
'Like what?'
'He seems observant, I bet I could learn whole hell of a lot about investigation.'
'Don't you already know a lot about it?'
'Always room for improvements, sir.'
'True, I've read your file and it leaves me a little concerned, can you tell me a little about those reprimands?'
'What part sir? There are a lot and in my own honest opinion, they are not all true sir, the captain hated my guts, especially after I refused the last undercover operation.'
'Elaborate on the sexual harassment complaints.'
'I like beautiful women sir, who doesn't, but I also respect personal boundaries sir, if a woman was to tell me to stop, I alway would.'
'Here are several written complaints about you harassing coworkers.'
' I can't say anything to make you believe me sir but if you would give me the chance, you would see that here, there won't be such complaints.'
'There will be others?' Morrow asks with surprise in his voice and raised brows.'
'Nobody's perfect sir.'
'Ain't that the truth, alright kid, I'll sign you in for FLETC after your done you'll start your probationary period with Gibbs, judging from how well you did in FLETC I'll judge how long of a period that will be.'
'Yes sir, thank you sir.'
'I understand from agent Gibbs that the two of you together with Tobias Fornell from the FBI are working a case?'
'Yes sir, three guys came into Starbucks on fathers day, took all people hostage and killed one woman, a Petty officer, one of the men got recognized as Robert or Rob Michaels, wanted by the FBI.'
'Can you work both the case and the FLETC assignment?'
'Yes sir!'
Morrow gave a curt dismissive nod which Tony took as such and left.

Gibbs saw Tony descent from the stairs towards him.
'Took you long enough! Get to work DiNozzo, time's wasting.'
'But Gibbs, who says he hired me Gibbs, he asked me about those reprimands...he didn't believe me when I Rolf hem that the captain put those in my file to screw me over...'
Gibbs took in the younger man in front of him, if not for the Tiny, almost unnoticeable smile of his, Gibbs would have believed him.
Gibbs leaned towards him and gave him a headslap.
'Get to work DiNozzo!'
Tony gave him a grin.
'On it, boss.'
