24 | "Hello Paul this is Jill Jill Noe remember me" the voice on the phone was a woman's. | ||
25 | He nodded into the receiver. | ||
26 | "Hello" Jill asked again "hello?" | ||
27 | Paul remembered that phones work by talking and said "Hello Jill." | ||
28 | |||
29 | "Do you remember me" she asked "we were in school together? | ||
30 | How have you been?" | ||
31 | "Pretty well" said Paul "I've been writing and making furniture." | ||
32 | "Oh that's nice" [said the woman's voice][] tinny in the phone | ||
33 | "Listen I ran into your mother at the [Supermarket][] the other day and she said you need a job. | ||
34 | You still need one?" | ||
35 | Paul had to tell the truth. | ||
36 | His mother was watching him out of the corner of her eye as she was playing dominoes at the kitchen table. | ||
37 | "Yes" he said sighing "Although woodworking takes up much of my time." | ||
38 | |||
39 | "OK" she laughed uncomortably "I actually have something you could do for me if you think you can get away from woodworking a bit. | ||
40 | It's just data entry really basic stuff entry-level." | ||
41 | "What's it pay" he asked. | ||
42 | "Minimum but there is room for movement." | ||
43 | "OK" he said. | ||
44 | "Start on Monday okay?" | ||
45 | "Sure" he said "bye" and the tin voice in the phone said "Goodbye Paul see you" by the time he put it back on the hook. | ||
46 | |||
47 | "Who was that" asked his mother. | ||
48 | "Jill Noe" he said. | ||
49 | "Oh her was she calling about a job for you?" | ||
50 | "Yes starts Monday" he said. | ||
51 | She smiled behind her glasses reflecting dominoes. | ||
