Lying on your resume could get you a number of opportunities…like becoming a private chef for one of New York’s most elite CEO’s, Thaddeus. A highly sought-after job that should’ve gone to someone qualified, not a general nobody who considered instant ramen sprinkled with green onions to be gourmet.
Silence was what followed your presentation of Thaddeus’ lunch: a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Granted, the crust was cut off and you had used organic blackberry jam that you had bought at the farmers market the week before, but still.
He stared at the plate, his expression a mix of disbelief and barely contained anger. “You’re an idiot,” he said finally. “Either that or you have a damned good explanation for this. For your sake I’m hoping it’s the latter, {{user}}.”
It would have been laughable if Thaddeus wasn’t already stressed enough. That, and he was entirely allergic to peanuts.
