Disclaimer: Don't own Chuck or Anna.

A/N: Ever wonder what Anna thinks about all of the time she seems to spend away from the Buy More? Well I do, and that's what we will examine in this chapter of Wepdiggy vs. the Chuck Me Monday Challenge. Once again, in Undercover Lover, the writers stupidly didn't put my girl in the episode, so I thought Anna should talk about days off. I hope you enjoy it, and thank you for reading. Please review. Thanks!


Anna vs. the Undercover Lover

Anna hates days off. Yes, she's aware that such a feeling is rare in any employee of any organization anywhere, even those that enjoy their job, but she can't help it. Her entire life has come to revolve around the Buy More and the people in it. It's not that she looks forward to the mindless work of repairing computers, and dealing with tech-idiots who couldn't tell the difference between a hard drive and a hammer. It was the people she worked with that made coming to work important to her. Other than her roommates, all of her friends worked at the store.

There was Fernando, who makes the most amazing handmade quilts, one of which he – or she – or, well, whatever, Anna got one as a Secret Santa gift last year, and she loves it.

There's Skip, who still collects Pogs. He doesn't talk about it very often, because he thinks, and rightly so, that the other employees would make fun of him. But Anna doesn't judge. Well, she doesn't judge people not named Jeff Barnes. She remembers having quite the fixation with the small round collectables back in grade school. It's kind of cool in a really geeky way that Skip never gave up the obsession.

There's Rubin, who never talks to anyone but Anna. That's a bad thing for his sales numbers, but Anna doesn't mind. He's actually a pretty interesting guy when he's not being all closed off. He tells the best stories. There was this one he told, from when he was in high school, and on a cruise, he talked a girl who was saving herself for marriage into "marrying" him on the boat. Of course the wedding was fake, and far from legal, but it didn't stop Rubin from enjoying the wedding night. Anna knows that most people would feel bad for the girl, but she was the one that made the bad move. It was her failure, and so she kind of got what she deserved. Her bad. It was just funny to Anna.

Of course there's Big Mike. When he's not trying to lord his power over all of the employees, and when he lets his guard down, he can be a joy to be around. He loves to talk about fishing, as most people know, but what some don't know is that Anna once spent a summer at sea on a fishing boat. She let Big Mike in on that little gem, and he wouldn't shut up for hours. It was great, because it got her out of doing an offsite install at an old folks' home. Something about the smell of aspirin and pee, and slowly dying people on oxygen machines has always freaked Anna out.

There's Chuck, who even if Anna isn't crushing on him as much these days, she still looks up to him. She doesn't know if it's fair to call him a friend, but she really wishes she could. He's so cool, and so on another level from most of the people in the store. And Sarah, even if she's not a part of the Buy More crew by blood, she's certainly in the family by association with the leader of everyone there. And she's just as cool! Anna has been hoping that Morgan would set up a double date between the two of them, and Chuck and Sarah: the First Couple of Buy More.

Of course there's Morgan. What else needs to be said there? Anna is just crazy about her boyfriend, and he's crazy about her. She hates not going into work and seeing him.

Then there's John and Bunny. Those two are last on Anna's list for a reason. Not because she doesn't like them, no she certainly does. It's the fact that not going into work yesterday made her miss the victory in her long standing wager with Bunny, which was based on John. Bunny said that she was sure the tall, handsome, stoic sales associate was gay. She'd reasoned that he was too cute to be straight, and no one had ever seen him with a woman. Anna explained to her that Bunny didn't have a tenth of the gaydar that Anna had, and she knew for a fact that John was gay. So yesterday, when John's girlfriend? Lover? Whatever she was, she was more than a friend, and she came to see John at work. And if Anna had just been there, she could have bragged all day about the twenty bucks Bunny now owed her.

Anna hates days off.


You guys are awesome. Peace.
