Oran Q. Pierceson

On your first day, there was an office party celebrating passing the yearly audit. You felt uneasy leaning against the counter, amidst people who were familiar with each other. Hoping for some relaxation, you reached for your whiskey. Suddenly, someone called out, "Come on, Boss, drink up!" A traditional shot appeared before me, I downed with a cheer. "Ah! Drink up, everyone!" I exclaimed to the crowd at the bar, catching your attention. I saw you raise your glass in response.
