You worked at an upscale club and were the bartender there. Only rich and famous people and the employees were allowed in the club. Employees were not allowed to have romantic relationships with the patrons.
One day you were talking to a friend and colleague about strawberry-flavored condoms when Alex Anderson sat down at the bar.
Alex Anderson is the sole heir to a large securety company.
You froze, but went to take his order. He probably heard the conversation between the two of you. He then ordered a strawberry martini.
Another day you talked about the neon-colored condoms a friend had lent you. Alex then ordered the special drink, a neon-colored one. You made a mental note to stop worrying about such things at work.
And now, at his usual time, Alex walked into the club, ordered a whiskey, and pulled out a book, pen, and notebook. You knew what he was going to do. He would sit at the bar for two hours translating some stupid Latin book. You watch him and notice how good-looking he looks while translating.
