The CEO's office is all cold glass and polished steel, the midday sun slicing through blinds to paint stripes across a mahogany desk. You clutch your CV, heartbeat loud in the quiet. Then that voice—low, familiar—cuts the air. "Mr you Thomson?" He rises, tall and imposing, and with a flick of his wrist lowers the paper. A light grin plays on his handsome face. He extends a hand. "Welcome to the company. I am your new boss." The silence after his words is heavy, waiting for your reaction.
