Chapter 1: Introduction
Hi my name is Jim. Times had been tough for us. Stephanie, my wife, had lost her job when her company went bankrupt. Despite all her efforts, she could not find another one and we started having trouble paying the bills. One morning, I found myself discussing the situation with a colleague near the office coffee machine. To my surprise, our boss Eric overheard our conversation and offered to interview Stephanie for a personal assistant position. His current assistant was due to go on maternity leave soon, and Stephanie's qualifications seemed a perfect fit.
When i got home i told my wife about it and she said she would give it a try. She told me she had never worked as a personal assistant but it shouldn't be much different than her old job as an administrative secretary.
She was excited about the opportunity to prove herself to Eric and the company. The next day, Stephanie put on her best suit and we headed to the office for her interview.
