Another hour or so passes, Michelle single mindedly focused on her task at hand, typing out emails, organizing files, drafting.
Behind her a voice broke her concentration. She turned to see a Familiar face... her own... one of her doppelgangers, another employee with the same Immersion pass as hers.
"Mr. Abbott wants you in Conference room 7."
Michelle smiled with pride at being needed, she quickly checked her makeup and made sure her skirt and blouse were straight... she was representing the company after all and had to look her best.
She headed across the office and knocked on the door, she heard a voice usher her in. Inside she saw about 15 people sitting at the table, about half were Immersion pass'd and the other half, all older men, and were probably high enough in the company to not be required to submit to the new policy.
"Ah! Michelle perfect timing we needed you to take the minutes for the meeting, please take a seat."
Take the minutes... a low level job, usually delegated to Secretaries or even somewhat skilled interns... Mike had never done it before... Mike had lead multiple meetings in this very room.... but none of that mattered to Michelle, the company needed her, and she eagerly taking a seat, happy to offer her services to the Company.
As the Meeting began Michelle listened in, taking perfect notes keeping things short and concise without losing any necessary detail, and after about 20-30 minutes the meeting wrapped.
As the Members of the meeting filed out Mr. Abbott asked her to stay for a moment.
Michelle had worked closely with Mr. Abbott for her entire tenure here... or Mike's Tenure here... Mike was even on a first name basis with him, normally addressing him at just James...
Michelle on the other hand felt differently, Mr. Abbott was a Superior of hers and deserved utmost respect, Michelle was almost nervous standing in the same room as someone as important as Mr. Abbott
"Yes Sir, what can I do for you?" Michelle said
"I just wanted to check in, see how the New Policy is working for you? I know Some of these changes are pretty major."
"Oh, things are fantastic Mr. Abbott, I'm getting so much done, I can type so quickly now, and its so easy to formulate ideas and get the output I desire, and I had so little appetite I only needed 7 minutes for lunch, and used the rest of the time to get ahead on the rest of my work." Michelle Gushed, happy to explain how much she loved being able to work harder and more efficiently.
"That's good, that's good. I've been hearing that a lot, it seems that these Immersion Passes were a good idea huh?"
"Absolutely Sir, I couldn't be happier to work in this form, I feel happier, more energized, more focused, and I'm quite happy that my appearance reflects well on the Company."
"I'm happy to hear that... you are very pretty"
Michelle felt warm inside hearing that, she had been keeping an eye on her appearance all day so it felt nice for it to be recognized. "Thank you Sir, that's very kind of you to say."
"Well that's all, I don't want to keep you from your work, I just wanted to check in. See how you were doing, I'm glad to hear you're happy."
Michelle beamed as she headed for the door "Yes, Very much so Sir, thank you again for the compliment, and the opportunity to sit in on this meeting."
Michelle returned to her desk and quickly got to work, and before long the work day came to an end. and Michelle grabbed her purse and headed downstairs, passing through the Immersion Pass Center again... once again Michelle began feeling a wave of dizziness and a bit of static electricity and then Mike was feeling them...
"Woah... What the Fuck..."
The last 9 1/2 hours suddenly came back to him... instead of being from the lens of a petite pretty work-addict woman, He was remembering the day from his own view.
"James had me take the minutes for the meeting? what the Fuck?" He noticed the purse Michelle had carried had disappeared but his wallet and other things were back in his pocket.
He drove home in a daze... would tomorrow be the same?
