Ellie went to Encounter Bar and learned from Whitney that her mom had been secretly looking for jobs for her and her brother.

This morning, since her mom couldn’t read, her newly hired boss managed to reduce her salary by three hundred dollars a month. Unaware of the going rates, her mom agreed on the spot.
