This region of United States accounts for disproportionately much larger sales volume for my national firm when compared to other regions.
On Monday afternoon my selection group finally makes its selection and plans to announce its choice on Friday afternoon. Out of a number of a very capable candidates, all experienced veteran managers, they selected Charles Delaney.Mr Delaney’s peers often used the words “ brilliant”, “innovative”, ”articulate” and “aggressive” to describe him.

However one of the weaknesses that he is prone to, is that Mr. Delaney rarely attends social functions and when he did, he never brought his wife. I was mesmerized when one morning I arrived the work place and received a personal call from Charles’s wife Edith who stated that Charles struck her in front of their two children. They are currently staying at Chicago shelter for battered women. Charles has been hitting Edith in so many occasions but this time it was severe. Edith beseeched that I should give him this job may be he would
