His supervisor chuckled and explained to Tom that there was no need since he would be working in an office environment and was coming in with over 15 years’ experience as an Administrative Assistant. Tom was surprised at first but thought it was for the best since there was already a stack of documents for him to process waiting for him at his new desk.
