The shift to Sales was a calculated move. For Amelia, the numbers were everything. The potential commission was a siren song, pulling her towards the abyss of wanting more. She could feel the itch to acquire burning in her gut. She focused on the numbers - the more she sold, the more she got.

She became ruthless, always pushing for a bigger deal, squeezing every last drop of profit from each client. The thrill of the win was intoxicating.

Amelia found herself prioritizing her targets above all else. Dinner with friends was canceled, family calls shortened. Her apartment, once enough, felt cramped and small.
