As soon as I finished, the staff behind me began to gossip again.

"Deputy Director? Did Miss Reid make a mistake? Wouldn't that raise her salary? Would Miss Reid really be so kind?"

"Gee, you may think it's a good thing, but think of what the Administration Department is. It's a terrible place! If Miss Zanes goes there, I guess she will never have the chance to come to this floor again! And she'll be working with a bunch of old men. What hope does she have!"

"You are so short-sighted. You have no ambition! If she leaves Mr. Roberts' office, how could she get her chance again?"
