Harold Meedy called from across the room: "Going home?"

"That's right," she said.

"Can I charter a bus and drop you somewhere?"

"I'm afraid not," she said. "I've really got to get right home."

"Listen," Harold said. He came over to her desk. "I've been trying to

get somewhere with you ever since you walked into this office. Now,

what's wrong with me? I haven't been able to get to first base. Don't

you like me?"

"Mr. Meedy," Gloria began, "it's just that ... well, I don't believe in

inter-personal relations on that level, not in the office. I'm sorry."
