Harold worked for Twiggs and Dersingham‚ which dealt with a sale of veneers(фанера) and inlays. His position is described in the novel as Stanley’s senior or Mr. Smeeth’s junior clerk‚ which can be explained that he is not a bad worker‚ but not good enough either‚ he is somewhere in-between. And this fact doesn’t let the reader feel drawn to him from the very beginning of the story
