Manager Background Part 2- The Faltering Future

15th July 2006

This was it. Results day. There was no backing away now. It was time.

I slowly clambered into the hallway of my run-down school. Its once tall, proud structure was slowing decaying away. My time here were close to being over, but I shall always have a special place in my heart, for this dismal association. Its impact on my life will be everlasting, whether good or bad.

Of course, this wasn’t the time for reconciliation, it was time for anticipation. My whole future would be decided in the next 10 minutes. I came in here a boy, and would leave a man, no matter the results.

My heart thumped as I saw my once best friend, Taramas Alata, a Turkish student who I shared lots of memories with. He was the only person who could even stand the sight of me, but even that soon disappeared. My love of football, and his of studies, had driven us apart. Taramas was holding his envelope tightly to his chest, bearing a sly grin on his pale face. He had got into Cambridge, of course. He had one of the fastest minds in the school, and was the first person ever to reach one of the big two universities.

Shifting my attention, I realised that I was now 2nd in line. I told myself to breathe, that it would all be ok, I would get the 3 B’s that I needed to go to Bristol. I would study Sport Management, and have a great time.

‘Casimir?’

‘Yes, ma’am.’ I replied, as I was pulled out of my trance.

‘Ah, lets see…H…..Harvey, Hills, ah, here we go, Hunter.’

I looked up, and quickly ushered a prayer.

‘Here you go, good luck’.

‘Thank you’ I quietly muttered as I scampered over to the side. The letter only contained one piece of paper, but it felt like the heaviest thing I’d ever held. Tearing open the seal, my hands pulled up the sheet. I glanced over the contents, before seeing the most important bit. My face changed into a shocked, disbelieving expression.
Oh, God, why?

Manager Beginnings Part 3- An Unexpected Meeting

20th May 2013

Another day at the mill passes by. My hands ache from the constant lifting of massive weights. Although, in recent times, they had be acclimatized to it, it had in a way become part of my life. Ever since I started working here, so long ago, but it felt like yesterday.

Not that I am complaining, oh no, I love this job. Not because it makes me feel happy or excited, but because it puts food in my mouth, and a roof over my head. It cliché, I know, but there is no other way of describing it. Without this job, I would be on the street, begging, and living on the road. That’s something I could never do; I would rather die.

On the other hand, I could have been so much more. My whole life was waiting for me, and what do I do. I mess up my tests. No university in their right minds would accept a student with 3 C’s and a D. I can’t believe I was so stupid, not revising until the last minute, what I expected. Life was cutthroat, you don’t do well, and you get washed aside. I’ve been washed up for the past 7 years.

My thought process was halted, by a dark shadow standing in front of me. I glanced up to meet eyes with someone I never thought I would ever see again. I was staring right into the cold eyes of my once best friend, Taramas Alata.

The style of writings nice, seeing as how its the manager background it can't really be FM related, but keep building it up nicely and writing the same, and it'll be the makings of a great story.

As TCO said, build it up slowly, I think that seems to work better, you have had a real good start!:P

Thanks mate, I will be building it up over several parts, so I can do into more depth in each update.

Brilliant build-up so far!

Yet another very good update
The build-up and background of your manager is brilliant!
