That dimple was nowhere in evidence at this particular moment. In his early to mid-thirties, he was a rich, blue-blooded type and had the looks to match - tall, dirty blond hair, green eyes, perfectly even, perfectly white teeth. Unfortunately, that position currently had me face down in the lap of the aforementioned Kirk of said prestigious law firm.īlane Kirk was a partner and second-in-charge in the firm.

I was a Runner at the prestigious Indianapolis law firm of Gage, Kirk and Trent, a position that occupied a rung right above Mail Girl but below Copy Boy. Planting your face in someone's lap usually isn't considered the best way to begin a new job. Your kindness was much appreciated.Īnd lastly, thank you to Rush, who taught me that my only limitations were my own talent and those limits which I placed on myself.
