“Hello, Zoe. My name is George. I am the CEO of J Publishing Enterprises”
“Hello, Zoe. My name is Rachel. I am the President of InfoTech”
“Hello, Zoe. My name is Sasha. I am the CEO of SalesIinc”
Zoe was being bombarded with introductions at every turn. Every person she met was either a president or chief executive officer, and she was meeting them in a sundress. Everyone was dressed formally, with makeup, hair, suit, tie. She was the only person present at this event wearing a casual dress with flats. Her strappy blue dress and white flats stood out like a sore thumb in this crowd.
She looked completely out of place and she felt it too. If she had known about the formality of the event, she would have dressed for the occasion.
She could feel tears pooling in her eyes for how out of place she felt. Luckily, before she had a chance to allow them to fall, she saw Darla.
