ABSTRACT
John walks into the office and smiles “hello” to his boss,
the Northeast regional sales manager to whom he reports,
while grooving to the latest hit single on iTunes. There’s
been some tension between John and his manager, but
today John feels particularly elated. He walks to his cube,
hangs his jacket on the knob, plugs his iPod into the USB
port on his company workstation, greets his fellow co-
workers, and heads to the coffee machine for a fresh cup.
It’ll be John’s last brew because he finalized the contracts
to work for a competitor who will pay him a handsome
salary for his insider perspective. John walks back to his
desk, looks at his iPod, and grins. He thinks to himself,
“that was so easy!”
