Ladder! Employed for just over 30-days at Jabot Cosmetics, Webmaster Sean Bridges scored big time brownie points with employer Jill Abbott when he moved his work space into the boss's office. Fortunate not to have been tossed out on his ear, Bridges hit the jackpot when Mrs. Abbott didn't object and even agreed to have dinner with him. Restaurateur Gina Roma presented the couple with her finest table and announced the daily special was Farfalle. Assuming her young employee might never have eaten anywhere other than at McDonald's, Abbott explained Farfalle is bow tie pasta with mushrooms. "I’ve had it. Could we have it with roast garlic please?" Bridges crowed. Always eager to please, Ms. Roma said there isn't anything her chef can't do and asked her guests about wine. "May we have Pernod '94?" Abbott inquired. But before Roma could reply Bridges chimed in, "Make that ‘95. It will go better with the meal." Explaining the change by one year would significantly increase the wine price, Bridges indicated money was no object. As they waited, Mrs. Abbott was surprised to learn Bridges has never worked as a Webmaster before and is well versed in the finer things in life. For example, Bridge knew that Sinclair Lewis was an author and winner of the 1930 Nobel peace prize. "I read when I can," Bridges quipped. Unfortunately, the RoadKill Cafe has yet to ban cell phones and the evening was terminated when Bridges received a call alerting him to an emergency having to do with the Glow Worm web site. Nose
Ring, Repulsive? "I had rings on my lips, over my eyes and one on my tongue and they told me I'd have to get rid of them before I started working and I did. Now this new dude Bridges is sucking around one of the stock holders and parading up and down the halls showing off the biggest most repulsive nose ring I've ever seen. It ain't fair," Jabot janitor Wanda Wangle wrote in her complaint to local 512. "A few years ago if I wore a ring in my ear the guys would call me a sissy but nowadays men think it's cool to look like a woman. What's really hideous are older men with pony tailed hair and ear rings. It's a phenomena I think will disappear in a few years but in the meantime, we're going to press Jabot to either allow all employees to dress how they want or instruct Bridges to lose the ring," said union spokesman Tom Gills. July 2001 Glow Website
Grand Opening! Bridges and some of the Jabot Cosmetics Glow Worms gathered together here Monday for final preparations as the Glow by Jabot website geared up for its grand summer opening. "Looks like this is gonna be a romantic summer," Bridges quipped as two worms glowed nearby. Site operators are hoping to attract big bucks with its streaming video feature. Young girls are expected to watch 'Internet Stars' parading around a pool house wearing swimwear, applying oily chemicals on their bodies and pulling wandering parts of garb from butt cracks. This year's venture will also have more 'on camera' Glow Worms too. As the grand opening neared, Jill Abbott was busy recruiting worms. "It's a dream job with good money," Abbott crows. Part of the pitch includes a promise that those accepting these opportunities of a lifetime will become Internet stars. Said to make or break the company, Jabot Cosmetics has a lot riding on the Glow Worms venture. "We want young girls to buy our product," says co-owner Jill Abbott without explaining how the company expects to generate sales when it isn't even on the Internet. Putting Out For Daddy? During a conversation with Brittany Hodges, Bridges asked the Jabot Glow Worm why she was so upset. Earlier, the teenage mental midget had received a good chewing out by Jabot co-owner Jill Abbott for thinking that she and Abbott had anything in common. Hodges had let herself believe Abbott would be an ally in her efforts to break up fellow Worms, Billy Abbott and Mackenzie Browning. When she was told to back off and butt out, Hodges broke down in a bawling fit. Observing the twisted Glow sister's distress, Bridges pressed Hodges for an explanation but got only vague answers. In desperation, Bridges asked if Hodges was feeling neglected by her father. As far as anyone knows, Hodges doesn't have a father. She may have mentioned having parents but has never spoken about any one parent specifically and if they exist at all, have never been seen. Why Bridges would make such a statement seems very odd. Could there be more to the story than meets the eye? Long-time readers will recall the Genoa City News was first to report that Mackenzie Browning had run away from home because of a sexually perverted stepfather. The off the cuff remark by Bridges may prove to be very revealing. If Hodges is being sexually abused it could explain why she is so desperate to see the breakup of Abbott and Browning. October 2001 Just waiting for the
call! Moments later, Bridges was lurking in the shadows inside Jill Abbott's office. When the executive walked in she couldn't get the lights to come on. At that moment, Bridges jumped out of the darkness with pop singer Lionel Ritchie at his side! The truly amazing event raised a few questions. How is it that Bridges would know Ritchie? Was Ritchie just waiting around in Motown for Bridges to call, dropped what he was doing and flew to Genoa City at a moments notice? Was Ritchie already in town negotiating with the owner of the RoadKill Cafe for a singing engagement? Or, like past entertainers, was Ritchie just passing through the mini-megalopolis, noticed the Glow by Jabot glowtique, stopped in to buy some trinkets and got hit on by Bridges to perform a special favor? Webmaster Flops! On a whim, Bridges arranged to have pop singer Lionel Ritchie croon a tune for Jabot executive Jill Abbott Wednesday and while Abbott did shed a few tears, she wasn't interested in resuming the romantic relationship with Bridges. The development was seen by many as a positive sign. Bridges is still very green behind the ears and Abbott is no spring chicken. At this point, Abbott should make Bridges' kick to the curb permanent. She needs to find a man her own age and move on. November 2001 Office sex back again! The woman posing the offer was Jabot's newest employee at the time, Phyllis Summers. On the job for less than 30-days, Summers was dressed in a gawd-awful snake skin looking outfit. With one arm exposed, Summers discussed the Jabot web site briefly and then invited her employer out for a drink. Abbott declined. "You don't know what you're missing?", Summers whispered in Abbott's ear as if to imply that if he gave the go ahead she'd do the horizontal hoochie with him right then and there. Abbott knew what he was missing but unlike the last time he and Summers humped in his office, Abbott showed some dignity and passed. Now, Summers is at it again. On Thursday, the latitudinarian eagerly encouraged Glow by Jabot webmaster Sean Bridges to do something special for the elderly woman Bridges is in love with. "Are you saying I should get Jill [Abbott] to my apartment somehow?" Bridges inquired? An appropriate, discreet location where adults may do as they please in privacy was out of the question. "Why bother with that? Go to her office. Start stripping and let things happen. Believe me, it works. I have the ring to prove it," Summers grinned as she waved Jack Abbott's engagement ring in the air. Anxious to get his clothing off, Bridges seems certain to perform a strip tease for his woman right in her office and Mrs. Abbott, twenty-percent share holder in the company, will undoubtedly condone such behavior. In Genoa City, sex in the office is older than time. People who know better do it all the time usually on top of the nearest desk. Even more insidious, the participants don't bother washing up after the deed is done. Seeing red! "What a sissy boy", "A real pansy", "No wonder Bridges has no friends," were some of the kinder cat calls. Whether or not Bridges' momma must have molly-coddled him at an early age, he was raised without a daddy or both, what seemed to bother the critics most were the color of his Speedos. Red! "Men don't wear red panties," one email writer wrote. "Where I come from a man wearing red underwear would be ridiculed to death. I'd smack that guy so hard, it would dent my wedding ring if I found him in the locker room with me," wrote another. "Few things make my temper rise like a sissified man," the messages continued and progressively got downright hateful. "A real man doesn't wear underwear. What's up with this fag?" From the mail, it seems that in domineering male circles, men do not wear underwear and those that do would never wear red. Any man choosing to wear red skivvies in a men's locker room should be prepared for the snickering from male hormone rich men who see red as something less than manly. |
