But Where Can I Find a Swingline Stapler?

Three intern amigosOK, I’ve worked here at D CEO, part of the D empire, for about a week now but I’ve only met about five full-time employees (though the company claims to employ about 200).

Here’s how most of the introductions have played out:

DAVE: Hi, I’m Dave Moore, the new guy, I work over there (point to empty cubicle).

INTERN: Oh, hi. I’m an intern.

Both parties pause for an awkward moment and walk away.

If I turn up any additional full-time, bonafide employees, I will post accordingly. But I fear that this organization is actually run by Southern Methodist University sophomores (see photo exhibit A, from left: Raya Ramsey, Christina Murphy and Jordan Shuler).
