“So how was your meeting with Tony?” Lisa asked as Janice came into her office. “Does he admit that the customer is always right?”
Janice smiled and nodded. “The meeting was great! Tony finally came up with some great ideas and I succeeded in my goal of making it clear to Tony that I wasn’t a push over. We are exactly where I want us to be.”

Tony came into Sally’s office and slumped in a chair. “I’m going to get fired!”
“Tell me what happened.” Sally replied. “I’m sure it wasn’t as bad as you think.”
“I thought I had a relationship with Janice.” Tony replied. “But I couldn’t get her to interact with me. She just sat there while I talked about our approach. When I asked her what she thought about something she would say ‘I’ll tell you when I’ve heard the entire presentation.’”
“That is odd.” Sally looked concerned. “So what did she say at the end?”
“She told me that she would think about it and get back to me. Then she left the room. She didn’t even say goodbye.”
