Chapter 201: Establishing Authority

After the office was filled with heaps of popcorn and fruit, Aurora stood before the eight people who had just been gossiping about her.

The other employees also put down their work and looked over, unsure of what she was about to do.

"I know you all have your opinions about me being parachuted into the manager position," she began. "You think I'm too young, inexperienced, and without any substantial background.

True, I'm just a college student right now, and I understand your doubts.

However, let me be clear: whether I'm suited for this role isn't something that can be determined by a rumor or two.

Since I've dared to come here, I'm ready to show you whether it's you who are blind or if I'm overestimating myself.

I had already decreed that office hours aren't for idle chatter and gossip, apparently, you've not taken my words to heart.

Today, while some of you were discussing everything under the sun in the break room- be it poetry or philosophy-I've decided to indulge you.

You won't need to work today. Just stay here, and from now on, you may speak as freely as you wish.

Within one day, I want all of this popcorn eaten, and to prevent dehydration, I've also bought fruit for you to quench your thirst."

The eight looked at the several large bags of popcorn, with each person facing over ten pounds to consume, plus several pounds of fruit.

"Manager, you want us to finish all this popcorn today?" one of them asked tentatively. "Yes, I haven't had a chance to properly host you since I arrived, so these snacks are all I've got. You don't mind, do you?" she asked with a sly smile.
