Gary the Grasshopper

It is Gary’s first day at the office. He thought it was about time he made something of himself, so he decided to get his act together, put on a suit, and a tie, do an interview, and get a job. He got twenty rejections before this, Ellis & Partners. He is a grasshopper, but, in his own words “knows loads about contract law”. He scampers between the open automatic doors, then, realising that his scamper is not very business-like, amends it to a tall saunter. He hopes that they will accept him, for surely it is unusual for a grasshopper to get a job in a law firm. He wends his way to the third floor office, and says “Hello everybody, I am Gary!” Nobody hears him, because he is really tiny.
