No Airbags

Young Thomas was grateful beyond description that his father had made significant sacrifices to provide him with his own “wheels”.  He elected not to post a picture on his Facebook page until he had a little time and saved some money for a few custom features.  He was especially concerned about the upholstery, the lack of cup holders, and no side impact airbags. . . . .  David, Sf.G.

No Frozen Food Section

Andy, who worked for a large multinational food processing giant, had been sent to India to see why the Company’s frozen food  products, especially the frozen veggies, hadn’t produced the sales they had anticipated.  Andy was beginning to think he might have a clue or two for the marketing gurus . . . . .  David, Sf.G.

Affirmative Action

Sami was a little disappointed  in the concept of affirmative action; not only could he not get into a decent school, he thought he got asked for his green card just a little more than other people around him.  Getting a job had proved a challenge too.  After the interview, the call to go to work just didn’t seem to come . . . . .  David, Sf.G.

Four Wheel Drive

In retrospect, Rohit wished that he had spent the extra money and gotten the four wheel drive option for his pick-up; there were rainy days when it was muddy that two wheel drive just didn’t cut it. . . . .  David, Sf.G.
