The Entity Pt. 02

'Sure. I felt you deserved better.'

Tammy glanced at Linda again. "What now?" she said.

"Keep chatting."

'Do you know I've been promoted at work?'

'Yes I do, Tammy. Scanner Bob was a bad man. Who deserved his position more than you?'

'Bad? Why bad?'

'He's helped embezzle millions. I helped the fed's out by moving proof to his computer at the office.'

'But I don't understand why HR thought I was the perfect candidate?'

'You are Tammy. I've read your thesis, I found it on-line, seen your school record and even perused your company record. I also had a friend of mine on the board of directors of your bank send an e-mail recommending you.'

Linda and Tammy glanced at each other. A friend at the bank might lead somewhere.

'Who?'Tammy demanded.

'It doesn't matter. He doesn't know he sent the mail anyway.'

Tammy leaned back and looked at Linda again. "Keep typing," was all she said.

'Who are you?'

'Sorry, Tammy, I can't tell you that. By the way, is Linda there?'
