I am trying to find Jorin who is supposedly working somewhere on a college campus.  I get into an elevator that seems to be falling apart.  Appearances are not deceiving for, as the elevator rises, it begins to collapse, the walls breaking away and falling to the floor of the elevator. I push the button to return to the lobby and decide to just climb the stairs.  Once I reach the floor where I believe she works, I start looking around for her but I don’t immediately see her.  There are other women sitting behind desks but not Jorin.  I keep looking and then I find her.  She seems uncomfortable seeing me.  I comment on her outfit which I say is nice but which I honestly think looks almost like a uniform and is not necessarily appropriate for an office.  It’s not revealing but it is perhaps too casual.  Then I notice another woman wearing an identical outfit.  I realize that this is a uniform of sorts and that this woman is also looking for Jorin to have her get back to work.  But it is just after office hours and Jorin should be done working for the day.  That is when I realize she’s been lying to me about the type of work she’s been doing and instead of being an office employee, she’s working on the maintenance crew.  I try to confront her about why she lied to me but her coworker is belligerently standing by and Jorin leaves me, obviously relieved she doesn’t need to explain anything to me.
