The walk to the office suddenly felt like a victory lap. Mark whistled, a jaunty tune that he hadn’t even realized he knew. He'd learned something in the meeting today. Something that, frankly, made his day.

The city sounds that usually irritated him—the blaring horns, the screeching brakes—were now a kind of exciting symphony. He greeted the security guard with an enthusiastic wave, and the guard smiled back, clearly thrown by Mark's energy.

He practically leaped into his chair, immediately pulling up his emails with a renewed sense of purpose. This information gave him some serious leverage.
