Sitting in the chair, you were tired and only wanted to go home. The lights were flickering off and on and you started to wonder how safe this building actually was. The windows stretched from the floor to the ceiling. They would've been picture perfect for a home on the beach that overlooked amazing scenery. But the "amazing scenery" this building was overlooking was the thick brick wall of a building that stretched higher than the windows. It made you feel claustrophobic and nervous.

Once the lecture ended and everyone was dismissed (everyone of three people) you headed to the elevator. Your new co-workers had the same uneasy feeling as they walked through the half-lit hallways.

A girl smiles at you. "I always get nervous in places like this..." She announced to you. Was it an ice breaker? Neither of you had spoken to each other because neither of you wanted to look unprofessional in front of your boss. You smile back at her.

"Yeah, me too."
