@mikegnesium, In pg.2 it said that he’s currently “42” and has worked at the company for “20” years, and is currently the section chief. It wasn’t stated when he became section chief but it certainly doesn’t say he became one at “22.”
@mommy I would be too, though it still seems like this could just take a paternal or platonic angle. Otherwise I'd at least prefer it took a few years for it to become romantic. Once someone's at least early twenties I'm comfortable with any age gap.
