CHAPTER 10




                         Whose Company Is This?









                                        (Giselle)


              T
                   he additional contracts we  won  allowed  us  to  hire  a  fulltime
                   bookkeeper. Jerome interviewed and hired Deborah around the
                   same time we moved to the tenth floor. This irritated Shannon,

              the fact that the new accountant, a petite middle-aged white woman
              would be moving on the tenth floor with us. This meant Shannon was

              moving further away from the executive team.

                  I soon came to find out that Deborah was just as manipulative as

              Shannon. She set Shannon up to be fired by Jerome. She told Jerome
              that Shannon had threatened her and was spreading the confidential

              information  to  other employees.  Jerome tried  to  warn and  protect

              Shannon, but she continued to push the envelope until he had to fire
              her. He was trying to offer her a severance package and the heifer
              came back and wanted us to pay her car note because Jerome had

              committed to that before she was fired. Of course, Jerome denied it,

              but I know he agreed to it, just to try to keep her loyal to him.
