A young, beautiful woman is being escorted by a coven of other employees, everyone is struggling to help her in offering her drinks, etc.
"Have you seen Abby?" she asks you, specifically.
This must be Max, wasn't Abby her assistant?
"Um...we were just dancing, but she's making out with Santa." you manage to say without slurring too much.
"Thanks, show me?" She commands, taking you by the hand and nodding you on to lead the way. "By the way, you don't work here. Who are you?"
You introduce yourself, and she reveals that she is, in fact, Max (short for Maxa, if you heard her correctly). She apologizes profusely for missing the meeting earlier, and, despite seeming just a teensy bit aloof, you have to admit that you find her very charming.
"Jesus," she begins, "I haven't had anything to drink yet, and it looks like you've been trying to keep up with 'Abby-needs-a-cabbie,' let's hit the bar?" Max looks over at the DJ booth, noticing Abby grinding against Santa who has let RUN DMC's "Christmas in Hollis" play for now the FOURTH time in a row. "I guess you're my date now, loverboy," she smiles, pulling you to the bar.
Conveniently the crowd opens up for her.
