Big Man has got a promotion on another island, and while he contemplated the offer for a day or two, it really was too good an opportunity to pass up. I’ve never had any real professional dealings with him, but I get the impression that his rise through the organization has been based of luck and cronyism than merit. Still, he has the grace to note that he is nervous and wonders whether he is ready for it. His wife on the other hand, is a different story..

Nordy Lass is in her element as is able to complain about everything and bragg about it all at the same time; “It is sooo horrible and I’ll have no friends but we are getting paid just sooooo much we cant refuse” and “Having an armed guard is such an inconvenience but its because we are soooooo important you know”. She is really insufferable and while I am not one to begrudge another’s good fortune, I will happily make an exception in her case
