Cornelius

"Umm...I came to get a job, but, I guess I'll just be going."

"Nonsense. Please, have a seat." he mutters, somewhat to my surprise. I slowly sit down on one of the chairs facing the desk. He gives his young female companion a playful slap on her bottom, and sends her on her way. Clearing his throat, he looks me over appraisingly and says "So, what can I do for you?"

I explain who I am, how I found out about the job from his nephew, and what work I am seeking. He responds:

1. "You're hired. You can start right away." I tentativley agree.
2. "You're hired. You can start right away." but, having seen what extra activites are seemngly expected of the female staff here, I decline the offer
3. "Sorry, we currently have no positions available for copyists. But there is another job I can offer you."
4. "Sorry, we currently have no positions available for copyists. But if you keep quiet about what you've seen today, especially to that idiot nephew of mine, I can make it worth your while."
