Vicky: Did I imagine it or did you just give Gavin the cold shoulder?
Gerard: You didn’t imagine it. I’m not too happy with him.
Vicky: Why? What did he do?
Gerard: He’s two-faced, that’s why. Last week, he told me he was going to put in a good word for me with the manager for a promotion 1.
Vicky: So that sounds like a nice thing to do.
Gerard: I thought so, too. But as it turns out, I heard from Elanda that he was bad-mouthing me behind my back.
Vicky: Are you sure?
Gerard: I’m sure. He told Elanda that he thought I had gone pretty far in the company for someone who had dropped out of college. That’s a backhanded compliment, if I’ve ever heard one.
Vicky: That sounds pretty nasty. At least the manager wasn’t around.
Gerard: She wasn’t, but who’s to say what he told her behind my back?
Vicky: You know, the manager is pretty sharp and nothing gets by her. I’m sure she’ll put two and two together and realize that Gavin isn’t trustworthy.
Gerard: I hope so. With friends like him, who needs enemies!
