“Drew, what’s your hurry?” Addison Lee jumps out of the way as Drew
comes barreling out of his office.
“Workload, Addison, workload. They’ve given me the task of setting up our new
3D printing facility. I don’t know anything about it. But no one else does, either.”
“Wow. So, we’ve decided to get into 3D printing?” Addison is so curious
about this idea.
“Well, not that I know. All I know is that Jason and Kelly want me to set it up
and see what it can do.” Drew’s not complaining, just worried.
“Well, you’ll figure it out. You always do.”
“Thanks, Addison, I appreciate the vote of confidence,” Drew continues.
“But you know what really bothers me?”
“No, what?” Addison looks closely at him and realizes that he really is
exhausted.
“Who are we?”
“What do you mean?” Addison thinks she knows who they are.
“Well, as a company, who are we? We’ve always been the one place you can
go to find just about any part for an adventure vehicle. Yeah, sure, we don’t have
tires for Jeeps, but you know what I mean. Any part that has to do with specialty
off-road equipment, that’s us.”
