Beatrice

The golden rule of business is never to mix business with pleasure. In simplified terms this means that we should avoid having sex (of any description) with the people we work with. My own exceptions to this rule apply as follows:

a) If a quick shag will get you that promotion you SOO want, then why not use the physical assets you have alongside your mental ones. This way, everything will have been achieved as a result of your own merit;

b)If gin is the thing to blame, allow yourself a blowjob/spell of cunnilingus. Anything further and you won't be able to look into their eyes the day after;

c)Sleeping with somebody who is in a lower position than you is far more appropriate than going for the boss. With this comes control. The boss may develop a quick dislike to you and may ACTUALLY be able to do something about it.

d) If you are desperate need of moisture, just do it. Bite the bullet and deal with the wound.

I remain unsure which of these exceptions apply to The Dame, but mix business with pleasure she has. She and Beatrice work together, flirt together and very shortly will be giving each other dirty fountains. It's something she said she would never do. And here she is, adding fuel to the fire, or rain to the river (whichever seems more appropriate). In light of this, I feel rather pleased that she has managed to come over the hurdle that is her past and make a direct contribution to her future.

Perhaps if i were doing what The Dame does for a living, I'd be just as open to the possibility.

There's nothing like a new one to get you past that old one. Indeed this is true.
