Alvin knocked on Mr Hanscom's hotel room door. It was opened to reveal his boss sipping some bottled water. " Come in Alvin".

Alvin sat down on a couch. " You asked for me Mr Hanscom".

" Would you like something from the mini bar?".

" No, thank you Sir".

" Alvin". He kept sipping the water. " Is everything going ok in your personal life?".

" I lost my wallet". He gave him a sad look. " Otherwise I'm doing ok".

" Alvin, the Board of Directors were not as thrilled with your presentation as I was".

" Mr Hanscom". His voice hesitated. " We did the best we could with it".

" I know you did". He handed Alvin a piece of paper. " Here are the items the Board had questions with".

Alvin looked at the paper. " How long do we have to work on it?".

" Friday, the board will meet". He smiled at Alvin. " I'm going to have Frank Lyon help you with it".

" Ok, Mr Hanscom". He quietly left the room.
