I was back at my old job and everything seemed surreal in a good way. The familiarity with the people I held dear grew deeper and it seemed as if I never left. I've been in love with fashion since little and during the days I studied fashion design working in a place like this was all I dreamed of. The unique line I work for combines both passions I love; fashion and art. Our dresses are all hand painted over sheer fabric. Making women all over the world walking pieces of art that accentuates their own beauty and uniqueness.
Back in the office and far from the runway we were having issues with our network. As it usually happens in a world were electronics are king we have become dependent on the modern day super hero; the IT GUY. Our hero is Frank. He is an all American boy, with blue eyes and blonde hair; he grew up in the mid-west eating mashed potatoes and fried chicken. Although he has lived in Miami for quite some time he brings an aura of the old fashioned world I have only seen in movies. Spreading it around with his hero cape.
Today, amongst other things our printer has lost connection to the server and in spite our efforts to reconnect it just did not worked. In the fashion world a color printer not working is a huge emergency. It was time to call our super hero again. Our office was full of girls and we all turn into Louise Lane when he arrives. We wait for him with a list in hand of issues with our computers, list that has been waiting for the day our hero lands. As we see him fix each problem like magic we all bat our eyes. Frank is cute but if he weren't we would still be in awe. Technology is a mystery to most and when you find someone who can fix it all, although you pay the price you still don't let that hero fly away.
