Dangerously Big
“By noon I feel like I’ve run a marathon on my hands and knees, and my neck aches from sitting hunched over the table.
I eat lunch without tasting it, then it’s back to the table, to more employee reassignments, to more filled-out forms. When 5:00 comes, there’s no sign of things slowing down.
Eight comes, then goes. Then nine. I take a break to massage my aching hands. I’m amazed they aren’t permanently cramped around an invisible pen. I should have insisted on using a laptop.
At least the room... is beginning to empty. The caterers have gone for the day, and the trays of carefully arranged snacks they left behind look like they were attacked by a pack of wild dogs.
Someone sits next to me in a faint cloud of lilacs, and I’m surprised to see it’s Meghan Tunsten. She’s helping with the merger. Technically she works on behalf of Food4Life, but now that we own them, I guess it means her job is done. “How are you?” she asks.
I smile. “It’s an experience. Not what I was expecting.”MoreLess
