I get off work late

Just as it was about time to head to the bar with Thomas and a few other guys, Mr. Brunson came up to me.

"Clark, I need to you drop these documents off at the Willson firm on the other side of town real quick."

"Mr. Brunson, that's on the other side of town and completely out of my way,"

"I wasn't asking, besides, you're still on thin ice for the Smith accounts, this is one way to start to make it up to me,"

"Yes sir," I said sadly. I was going to be forty five minutes late to the bar, damn I better call my wife and tell her what's going on.
