Kim was looking at old photos in the family album while talking to her mother Her speech had notes of dissatisfaction I just can't figure out who I look more like appearance wise everything is definite but when it comes to my life path I still don't have a clear vision of my future my grandma worked as the head of a department at a medical school for many years my grandpa was a scientific researcher and my dad works as the chief engineer at a factory putting the photo album aside Kim added and you Mum are a teacher
so why am I working as a nominal designer in a dumpy workshop and my boss never listened to me not just that I have no plans for advancement but the director is always picking on me I have so many interesting ideas in my head and I'm sure they would help improve the quality of production to a higher level but the boss doesn't want to hear anything he doesn't like initiative people they seem too smart to him Miranda sat next to her daughter ran her hand through her hair and said you know before becoming head of
Department your grandmother worked for a long time as a regular laboratory assistant she was noticed and offered a promotion the same with Grandpa he didn't immediately become a famous scientific researcher and your father that's a whole separate topic he started from the bottom first as a regular fitter then worked his way up to mechanic and now he's the chief engineer but you Mom managed to climb the career ladder in one breath so what should I do with this Atelier Miranda walked over to the window and asked her daughter to come to her honey pay attention
to how the children play in the playground they have a United team and all repeat the same manipulations and if someone does it better the children immediately adopted the experience of their neighbor the Kim didn't quite understand the meaning of this reasoning mum let's keep it simple without psychological tricks sometimes it's hard to understand you not to delve too deeply into the thought the mother summed up children just have a sense of unity and it lasts a long time your director is an egoist and he no longer has such Notions as working together in a
coordinated team he is satisfied with the result as long as it brings in some money and improving the result doesn't interest him at all her mother was still saying something but Kim wasn't listening to her anymore thinking over her conclusions she decided that if she was a good professional and not appreciated she would not try to impose and knock on a closed door and just continue to work as an ordinary seamstress but if a better option presented itself she wouldn't miss it she was distracted from her thoughts by her father who had returned from work
hello my dears this weekend we're going to our friends they invited us to organize a picnic together I think it's not a bad idea especially since we haven't been in nature for a long time Miranda gestured to her daughter that they could continue the conversation later of course dear I fully support your idea Kim had no other plans for the weekend so she agreed to come with them too the next day the girl arrived at the Italia a little earlier than usual and didn't immediately go to her workplace she wanted to talk to Mr Brady
her boss once again even after talking to her mother and receiving hints about Unity Kim still hoped to show initiative the owner of the Italia arrived later than usual and seeing Kim at the threshold of his office asked what are you doing here if it's about money the salary was paid last week and don't expect any advance payment you haven't earned it yet these words offended Kim but she held back to avoid saying anything unnecessary no no Mr Brady I'm here not because of money I just thought we could use the ideas I mentioned last
time I think the Italia will only benefit from it Mr Brady frowned and replied I know what we need and your original ideas don't interest me at all by the way I am a technologist by education so you don't need to teach your director it was another frustrating remark that Kim also endured she wasn't used to swearing well okay Mr Brady you know best sorry for taking your precious time and she silently sat down at her workplace throughout the day Kim tried not to look at anyone she understood that people were gossiping behind her back
but she had immunity for such cases her grandmother often took her to medical school and there when she spoke to the audience she sat her granddaughter next to her as if a faithful assistant so Kim had been long accustomed to being the center of attention remembering this Kim drove away the gloomy thoughts the end of the working day was approaching everyone began to gather but suddenly a woman flew into the Italia like a meteor she was wearing expensive clothes and had several Exquisite gold rings on her fingers moreover a gorgeous bracelet made of pressure metal
adorned her left wrist Kim thought this was another boss's girlfriend but no when Mr Brady came to her she began to scold and Shout at him in front of everyone I asked you not to skimp on the material don't you understand me at all I'll punish you once with money then you'll understand that this is no joke after this thoughts of a girlfriend fell off by themselves Kim guessed that this woman was a regular and very valuable client at least she knew Mr Brady well enough to allow such eccentric outbursts Mr Brady lowered his head
like a guilty Schoolboy I'm sorry Mrs Hobbs I'll fix everything the thing is I'm catastrophically short of qualified specialists excuse the director and took the client to his office what a crafty Fox he is Kim puffed up her cheeks with anger he says there are no good employees but he rejected all my suggestions I need to remind him of this again in addition to her thoughts on another conversation with the director Kim suddenly realized that the client was not so simple despite her behavior she was full of dignity and confidence in their rightness it was
clear that the woman Mrs Hobbs knew exactly what she could demand and when it was better to keep quiet and she was probably an excellent clothing designer judging by her stylish appearance and expensive jewelry she was at least the owner of a modeling agency most likely Kim would be able to come to an agreement with her by offering original ideas after 20 minutes Mrs Hobbs left Mr Brady's office he looked out after her and his face was a deep shade of red and sweat was pouring down his forehead currently criticisms turning her head as if
examining new possessions Mrs Hobbs left the studio just in case Kim looked to see what car she had come in an expensive black fancy car was parked in the yard it was clear that the woman was wealthy in her thoughts Kim was already looking forward to presenting her new clothing samples to her these were just dreams she got home she decided to consult her mother so what do you think mum am I doing the right thing if I show initiative to her Miranda crossed her hands on her lap and replied I wouldn't rush to make
hasty decisions you yourself said that your director doesn't like initiative people but what if you ended up being the four guy on the other hand he who does not risk does not drink champagne Kim took note of her mother's warning but she still wanted to test her persistence in action there was silence in the Italia for almost a week the wealthy client did not appear and Mr Brady looked darker than a cloud he felt as if he was driven into a certain framework and was not at rest and although he knew perfectly well that Kim
could become his indispensable assistant he used to do everything as he saw fit and refused any new ideas Kim had already decided that Mrs Hobbs would not visit them again but on Monday morning the woman visited once again after a wonderful weekend with her family at a picnic Kim did not really want to spoil her mood however curiosity got the better of her and she decided to approach Mrs Hobbs the woman was trying to figure something out from Mr Brady near the racks of clothes when have you been asked to send an order you listen
to me Mr Brady maybe it's time to pay you less or even change the Italia sorry but my sales deadlines are being missed and I really don't want to be embarrassed in front of serious people later in general correct your mistakes and finally find a good designer cherished word for Kim was spoken she flew towards Mrs Hobbs like a bird but stopped abruptly halfway at that moment the woman took one of the finished items in her hands and what's this whose hands did this mess come from what kind of incompetent people are working for you
here Mr Brady why are you silent answer Kim saw that Mrs Hobbs was holding the dress she had been working on for a long time her mind became cloudy and instead of finding out what Mrs Hobbs didn't like about the dress Kim blurted out how dare you judge a person just by looking at their work this dress is my creation and I don't think there are any flaws in it Kim was on the edge and wanted to continue but to Defuse The Situation Mr Brady firmly grabbed her elbow and led her to his office before
climbing the stairs the woman discreetly put Kim's dress in her purse and shouted don't overdo it Mr Brady I'll come back to you later Kim didn't understand what this could mean but there was no time to think on distracted topics because a serious conversation with the boss was ahead of her half an hour later Kim was standing in front of her boss Mr Brady started without closing the door do you realize who you're dealing with you just insulted a wealthy client I'm already walking on eggshells in front of her and you've created a scene so
you're fired and I don't want to see you here again and by the way I don't think you'll get a job in another Italia I'll make sure that you never get a job as designer in our city Kim left the office and only then started crying she didn't want the director to see her tears and make fun of her even more an hour later she was home mom I got fired just like you warned me I should have stayed out of it with my advice and why don't I ever listen to you Miranda approached her
daughter and hugged her don't worry my dear this isn't the last Italia in the area there are many firms where your abilities can be useful you'll see that fate will give you a second chance Kim weekly believed in these comforting words and started looking for a new job the next day she was ashamed to look at her parents in the eye her father had been working in the same place for 20 years and her mother was constantly dealing with clients and only their daughter had shown herself in a bad light the director dismissed her out
of the Italia with a poultry severance pay and on parting he sarcastically said have a good trip but not silk but with spools so you can collect all the bumps Kim went to interviews all week but was rejected everywhere interestingly enough they didn't explain the reason for the refusal and the girl suspected that Mr Brady was behind it Mrs Hobbs probably had a hand in it too in any case Kim had no other theories yet but she had no intention of going to the former director though she still wanted to settle the score with Mrs
Hobbs however Kim didn't know where to find her while thinking about how to compensate for her losses Kim suddenly came up with the idea that she really wanted to get back at Mrs Hobbs that it was out of the question because Revenge doesn't justify bad Deeds in addition Kim's mother advised her to forget this misunderstanding and move on with her life soon Kim was able to find remote work creating clothing patterns for a capital Italia although it wasn't much of an income now it was better than nothing three weeks had passed since she quit Mr
Brady sometimes saw her in the city but he didn't approach her one day A Familiar black car pulled up to Kim's house the girl looked out the window and almost screamed it's Mrs Hobbs herself who has arrived she wants to humiliate me here too well now I'll tell her what I think of her running out into the street Kim ran up to the car and kicked the tire shouting why did you come here isn't my shame in front of the Italia director enough for you I was fired because of it and now you want to
trample me here too in response Mrs Hobbs handed her the very dress she had rejected before this is your work as far as I remember and I'm not going to humiliate you Kim on the contrary I would like to offer you a job as a designer in my company as you may have guessed I own a private modeling agency I work only with wealthy and successful people in our city and neighboring regions a very narrow circle of clients also I have a network of stores for selling clothing tailoring and repair and in Mr braid is
Italia I am a co-founder but because of my workload in my main line of work I never strictly monitored his work and if you want to be my right hand person then welcome aboard Kim's Joy was boundless and she instantly forgot that a moment ago she had been furious with Mrs Hobbs I am flattered by your offer but what about the dress that you rejected I had been working on it for a whole week Mrs Hobbs smiled and said you rushed to conclusions when you attacked me at that moment I wanted to scold Mr Brady
for his careless attitude towards our partnership and your work fell into my hands but in reality I really liked your dress and I got curious who created such a masterpiece that's why I am here with a job offer here Kim felt her cheeks turning red I'm sorry but my emotions overwhelmed me by the way what about the Italia if Mr Brady finds out that I've joined you he won't let me work in peace Mrs Hobbs looked at the girl meaningfully and replied you'll see everything tomorrow I haven't told you the main thing yet but that's
later I'll pick you up tomorrow morning surprisingly the black car was parked outside the house again at eight o'clock in the morning but alarm and nervous excitement Kim got into the car together they arrived at the modeling agency the first introduction to the staff was successful well there's nothing to worry about you were accepted normally now I'll show you your office Kim could only dream of such a thing a separate workplace and even a view from the window of the business center was simply wonderful for two hours Mrs Hobbs explains the intricacies of working at
the agency to Kim a little later they got back in the car and Mrs Hobbs said and now let's go visit Mr Brady I think you will be happy to see a new business partner by the way you look great did you make the suit yourself or buy it I designed it and then the tailor sewed it to my specifications half an hour later they arrived at the Italia come in you won't get lost here it hasn't been that long since you were fired Mrs Hobbs joked Mr Brady was shocked when Mrs Hobbs introduced him
to her new Protege Kim would supervise all orders from now on and look Mr Brady she won't let you off the hook I put up with you but I think Kim will put you in your place quickly I know what she's capable of the director suddenly turned red and retreated to his office on the way he told Kim about the successes they had achieved in the last month the Figures were not that impressive but Kim firmly stated that she would put things in order after that Mr Brady did not accept any orders without her approval
sometimes Kim remembered her mother's words about unity and hold herself mentally not all people behave arrogantly when in charge and she was right because Mrs Hobbs never spoke to her as if Kim were not an employee but rather the company's property thank you for listening and have a nice day
