The announcement regarding the punishment of Leo Shaw, assistant in R&D Department One, was quickly circulated company-wide.
Thea Lynch glanced at it briefly, put down her phone, and continued eating.
Foreman Chandler read it with interest, somewhat thoughtfully: "That young man Shaw has bad intentions, brought this upon himself."
"Having ambition is a good thing, but if he had the right attitude and focused his energies properly, it wouldn't have come to this. Quite a pity..."
"His education isn't bad, really. It's just that he's too arrogant and doesn't understand that there's always someone better."
Thea drank some tea to refresh her palate, calmly summarized: "His abilities don't match his ambitions."
"Exactly, exactly," Foreman Chandler agreed. "So true."
"Young people, a little ambition isn't a bad thing, but it has to be realistic. You can't think of flying the moment you've learned to crawl... Oh, Lynch, your phone?"
