Boss, Tie, Pop

Ben was trying hard to impress his new boss. It wasn’t going well.

Ben was a Harvard-educated business and public relations expert who’d been hired by a giant insurance company based in Atlanta, Georgia. Their annual picnic was one of the highlights for the employees each year. Even the CEO was able to act more natural and interact with all the attendees.

Ben showed up wearing a suit and tie where everyone else wore T-shirts. He refused to talk to “lesser” employees. He even called “soda” what everyone else called “pop”.

Will Ben learn how to fit in?
