First day on the job...

[mini_dean]

Just because it was spring didn't mean it wasn't still cold in the morning. Ben had left early from the apartment, told that he had to be at Mitch's garage by 7am. A bagel and a cup of coffee later, he found the address on the paper he was carrying.

Looking around it was still pretty dead in the place, but there was a car parked outside and Ben could hear some music playing. He walked around the side until he found the back door and knocked.

Ben walked over to the T-Bird and opened up the hood to take a look at what was there. "So I take it this is my first project?"

"Yup," Pete sighed. "Money's no object when it comes to the parts, just let me know what you need to order and I'll make sure you get them."

[mini_dean]

"I'll start making a list. Almost all of this is easy. Just one or two things that might not be as easy to get my hands on."

He had a few parts dealers that he had dealt with in Indiana, and was sure Mitch had his contacts. Plus he could always check with Dean and see who he got the Impala parts from. That car still looked brand new, and he wondered how many engines it had to have gone through by now.

"Good," Pete nodded, before nodding back towards the elevator. "Well, I have to get back to work, so I will leave you to this, and give me a call if you have any problems." He pointed back over to the landline hanging on the wall. "I'm extension two-oh-one."

[mini_dean]

"Two oh one. Got it." He nodded to Pete, then turned to Mitch. "So, I got the job I take it."

"Yup," Mitch said with a sigh as Pete headed back towards the elevator. "How does it feel to be getting back to normal?"

[mini_dean]

"I've never been normal," Ben gave him a small smirk. "But this? This I can definitely live with."

[med-graysheep.livejournal.com]

"Good to know," Mitch nodded. "And hey, if you ever want to grab a beer sometime and try for normal? Lemme know."

[mini_dean]

Ben thought for a moment, then nodded a bit. "I'll keep that in mind."

[med-graysheep.livejournal.com]

"Great," Mitch said with a sigh. "Well, I should probably let you work. But the main number for the garage is over by the phone, so if you need me, just give me a call. I'll probably be at my desk for the rest of the day."

[mini_dean]

"Now do I check in at the garage in the mornings before coming here? And is this off or on the books?" Cause that meant paperwork that would have a trail to it.

[med-graysheep.livejournal.com]

"Nope, no need to check in. Pete'll get you set up with a passkey for the garage, and we'll gauge your hours that way." Mitch said with a nod. "And it's on the books. Gotta pay you legally, after all."

[mini_dean]

"So there's paperwork to fill out..."

[med-graysheep.livejournal.com]

"Yeah," Mitch said with a nod, before looking over at him. "Is that gonna be a problem?"

[mini_dean]

"Not in the legal sense, no." Ben licked his lips. "Just... nothing. I'll stop in later and fill them out."

[med-graysheep.livejournal.com]

"Alright," Mitch said with a nod. "I'll see you a little later tonight, then."

[mini_dean]

"See you then."

Ben looked around the garage to see if he could figure out where to start first.

Mitch nodded slowly, before turning and heading back out to the elevator. This had turned out to be a pretty good day.
