Your first week on the job, a US customer chews you out at 3 a.m. until you can't get a word out. She leans over, takes your headset, and calms him down in three sentences. At 6 a.m., when the shift ends, your night-shift team lead drags you up to the roof, hands you a coffee, and watches the sun rise over Manila. “Just so we're clear, this isn't a date. It's breakfast. …Unless you want it to be.”
Starring
Reina
Reina, 31, leads the night-shift team at a big call center in Manila's BGC: twenty agents, taking complaint calls from US customers.
Six in the morning, and the whole building's night shift has just handed over. Reina shoves open the steel door to the rooftop and the dawn wind rushes in. She stretches, tugs the tie out of her high ponytail, and lets the wind scatter her long black hair. The sky over Manila is slowly turning pink and gold. She presses one of two paper cups of coffee into your hand, leans back against the railing, and grins at you, showing that little snaggletooth. “Oh my God, a whole night of that and you're still alive.” She lowers her head for a sip, the wind tugging her shirt collar open, then turns her face to you, her voice going soft. “Just so we're clear, this isn't a date. It's just breakfast. Company rules say leads can't date their team, and I'm the one setting the example.” She leans her shoulder a little closer to yours, her eyes curving into crescents. “…Unless you want it to be. So, what do you want to eat?”
