“Well, now that that’s all settled. Let’s get you into your new uniform and get started.”
Matt was rushed off to a supply closet, asked to confirm his height and weight, 5’11” and 165lbs, and then Melody handed him what looked like a track suit with the company logo embroidered on it.
“What’s with the getup?” Matt asked from behind the changing screen.
“That? Oh, it’s company policy. Don’t want you getting upset with any wardrobe issues.”
“It can’t be that bad-“
“And you’re cleared for your first transfer…now.”
Matt stood stock still. For a half second, or an eternity, he was and wasn’t himself, both Matt and Melody. He saw himself as Melody standing in a corner office shaking hands with the big boss upon receiving a promotion, watching everyone leave over an hour before she does, left alone at the office and grabbing multiple things from the fridge to assuage her stress as she pores over countless documents, struggling to get her skirt on in the morning with half a donut hanging out of her mouth and frustratedly stuffing the rest of it in, catching flack from other office gals for not filling in the fat dump position- some even suggesting it should be her if she doesn’t find someone soon, leaning back in her chair and unbuttoning her work pants as she stuffs a slice in her mouth and then… coming across the Matt’s resume…
Matt tasted the ghost of a chocolate eclair on his tongue.
“Oh that is so much better!”
Matt stepped out from behind the screen. Melody stood there, running her hands over her now better fitting attired, the seams loose and no telltale fat bulging over her waistline. He began to inspect himself, first with the small spare tire that had sprouted from his midsection, grabbing it in his hands. Then he noticed the a strange jostling on his chest, a bizarre and soft weight hanging from his pecs.
“What in the…”
“Well, if you check your work phone you’ll see you’re now 20lbs heavier, and not a moment too soon. I have a meeting with the board and they…well they have expectations. Cindy will show you to the rest of the office, give you a chance to meet the team as it were.”
There was an odd shift to Matt’s rear and he felt the new found fullness filling the uniform. Well, it was well made at least, he couldn’t even tell if it had tightened with the surge of blubber.
Melody stepped out as the aforementioned Cindy stepped in, a slightly chubby young woman with a beaming smile.
“Hi!” She said as she extended her hand. “Let’s get you to meet the office.”
With a sudden realization of what that might entail, Matt felt a stirring of hunger in the pit of his doughy middle, followed by a tumultuous rumble.
“Oh! And if you’re hungry, the office gets free donuts!”
Matt tried to keep from drooling.
