Promaxima and Numerous Death

Noah, Lucas and Dáithí are walking back to their flat as they left their university earlier after attending important subject lecture.l

"Today's lecture was quite boring, I didn't even understand a single damn thing today." Dáithí always complains about the lecturer being boring and not understanding anything.

Noah felt his phone vibrate inside his jeans pocket and grab his phone from the pocket and start reading the message he got. His expression became happy as a smile formed on his lips that hadn't been seen for the last two days. Noah put his phone back in his jeans pocket. Noah turned to look at both Lucas and Dáithí with a smile on his face and said, "Guys, I found a part time job for myself. So, I won't be coming home early tonight because it's my evening shift job."

"Damn. Noah, you didn't even tell us when you were applying for a job." Dáithí said as he wanted a part job too as he was kicked out from the last one.

"I did but you never cared to listen, when we talked about getting a part time job."

"Just ignore him, what job have you got by the way?" Lucas is curious about Noah's new job.

"I got a delivery boy job." Noah replied to Lucas' question.

"Damn, that sucks." Dáithí said as delivery boy job isn't that good and the night shift really sucks.

"This time I agree with the Dáithí delivery boy job that takes too much time and evening shift and night shift are equally bad cause you won't be able to study well and you still haven't submitted your past assignments yet and exams are just one month away."

After hearing Lucas' words Noah who was just happy moments ago for getting a job got struck by realization and got dispirited by this.

"Both of you I just got my first job after two months, I need money to pay my rent and food and for other things."

"Unlike the two of you my parents aren't rich enough to pay for all my things."

"That's true tho but you can still find a better place where you don't have to neglect your studies." Lucas worried that because of the night shift Noah wouldn't be able to focus on his studies.

"Yeah Lucas said right and you were also wasting your all time by writing horror novels everyday even though you have 0 effective reader and no collation on webnovel." Dáithí said without hesitation.

When Dáithí said that it was like stabbing his heart with a hot knife. Noah clutches his heart as he gets hit with a reality check.

"Both of you, the conversation ends here. Now I have to get ready and I don't want to be late on my first day at work."

"Or on the first evening." Dáithí started laughing after saying that.

After getting ready Noah looks at the time and he probably won't be able to reach the office.

"Hey, Lucas. If you don't mind, would you drop me at my office? My shift starts at 5:00 pm."

"Sure but think about this last time."

"I already think of this enough time."

Lucas dropped Noah to his office at 4:55 pm and left after taking one last look at him.

"Good luck brother."

"Thanks Lucas."

Noah enters the office of a quick food delivery company. Noah walked towards the receptionist table.

Receptionist is a beautiful woman in her late 20s, she has red hair and a snow white skin tone.

"Excuse me, I'm Noah Calhem. My job application was accepted by this office branch this morning online."

"Okay, sir, just wait for a few seconds. I will inform the branch manager of your arrival."

 Receptionist speaks really politely and her smile is so sweet.

Noah sat on an empty chair in front of the receptionist table.

"This boy looks so young and cute, he's the one branch manager who was talking about he's going to be the sales head of this branch."

"I should get on his good side."

'She's taking a sneak peek at me, should I say something to start a conversation. No, I'm here for a job, nothing else.'

'Focus focus Noah don't get distracted by beauty.'

Noah looks at the time and it's 5:03 pm even though it's not late but it would be better if he could start his job quickly as seating here on the couch feels a bit awkward.

"In an online text message, I was informed that my evening shift would start at 5:00 pm. If I can meet the manager quickly, I can start my duty."

"Wait, you are here for a delivery man job?" Receptionist woman look with shock, disappointment and disgust in her eyes.

"Yes." Noah replied to her question.

"Manager going to get angry at me. This is all his fault for not making this clear." Receptionist murmured under her breath slowly while throwing a dagger at Noah with her eyes as she messed up today.

Noah heard her words clearly but didn't say anything, he just acted like he didn't hear anything, it seems there has been misunderstanding here.

Soon the branch manager came to her and looked around the room, "where is the new sales head man that is allocated to this branch.

"Sir, I apologize for my mistake, I thought this young boy here is the new sales head man. I'm sorry." Receptionist apologized to the manager by lowering head.

Branch manager turns to look at the young boy sitting on the couch, "And you are?"

"Sir, I'm a new delivery man that just got hired today, Noah Calhem."

"I'm promaxima city branch manager Orien Smith." Manager talk

Orien Smith is black man in his 40s, bald and 6 feet tall with big belly fat wearing formal clothes.

"You are late on your first day, boy."

"Sir, I arrived at 4:55 pm before 5:00pm time."

"That's why I told you you are late on your first day, you have to verify some documents, fill up some other documents and sign them before you start working." Manager said with annoyance.

"Brandy gave those documents to him to fill up and not create another blunder next time." After saying this, the branch manager started walking back to his office.

"Okay, sir."

Receptionist gave a few documents to Noah, "Fill them up quickly, I don't have time to entertain you all day."

Noah filled up the document and verified his identity document to the receptionist.

"From here turn left and walk straight to the back of the corridor. That's where the delivery man cabin is and you will get your delivery bag for delivering the food in it and a scooter from the company to deliver them."

"Remember the company policy and guidelines and remember that you are not allowed to use a scooter for your personal use, it's only for your work and work use only."

Noah, as the receptionist told him, Noah walked into the corridor and turned left when three different direction corridors appeared.

Noah entered the delivery man cabin inside the delivery man. Two mid age men were talking to each other, they stopped talking to each other as they saw Noah enter the room.

"Hello, I'm new here. I just joined the evening shift." Noah awkwardly says that to make conversation with them.

Two middle-aged men grimly look at Noah, "Evening shift or night shift both are the same."

"You are a dead kid."

"No one survives the night shift and those who do go insane."

"When you are still alive, go back to where you came from before it's too late to regret."

Noah got startled by what they said to him, he now truly starts to have second thoughts about going back.

'Noah you don't have money, you are poor."

'I need money, I'm poor."

"I'm poor." Noah accidentally said that loud.

When both men heard this they just had a look of pity in their eyes and left.

Outside the quick food delivery office two mid aged men were laughing their asses off, "William you are a really really good actor the way you change your expression with sadness and pity in them."

"If I didn't know you for a long time, I would have fallen for this shit too."

"Yeah, maybe I should try working in the entertainment industry."

"This delivery man's job doesn't pay well even after working all day and now some unknown kid is like this trying to steal our extra night shift money."

"Hope he gives up like everyone else."

"William but in the past few months lots of delivery men faced problems, even in our quick food fellow delivery man brother also got killed at night and some went crazy for unknown reasons."

"That's what happens when you take a delivery order from a bad neighborhood, all these years of working here I never took delivery orders from bad neighborhoods."

"Let's see how the new boy is doing tonight."

"Hahaha."

Noah opened the door with exits written on it and there's a thin old man sitting on the chair. He looks to be around in 70s, from his clothes he looks like a security guard.

Well, he is a security guard that needs security. Noah looked around the garage and there were 5 Quick food delivery scooters in perfect condition parked.

Noah stood in front of him, the old man and old man clearly sleeping on duty.

"Hello, wake up."

"Gramps wake up."

"Huh, are you an intruder?" Old man slowly opens his eyes because his vision isn't that good either. At first he couldn't see Noah's face properly after his eyes got adjusted to light frequency.

He stares at Noah thinking that his intruder is here.

"No, I'm a new delivery boy, I just joined Quick food today."

"Oh, that's good that's good."

Old man looked at the clock on the wall and it was 6:00 pm.

"Then you just joined the evening shift?"

"Yes."

"If you don't mind, I need a scooter key so I can start working."

"Does someone tell you how this works and everything?" The old security guard asked Noah this question.

"Oh, there's no need for that. I already watched a tutorial video of what delivery men need to do on the quick food official website when I applied for this job. I've done my research." Noah said with politeness and a smile on his face as not to appear rude to the security guard.

"Young men don't be rash on these things, take it from an old man as advice for you, believing something you saw and doing something by yourself are two completely different things."
