The vibrant, chaotic energy of the advertising agency was overwhelming. Liam, who had always thrived in the quiet solitude of the finance department, felt a wave of dizziness.

He looked at the open office, the casual clothing, the loud music. He felt a sense of awe.

He remembered his first day in finance, and the feeling that he was going to get something wrong. He looked at the younger workers, the ambition in their eyes, and a feeling of warmth filled him.

He felt the need to make sure he was able to help in every way he could. He wanted them to feel good.

He straightened his tie, feeling a small smile tug at his lips.
