The solution? A job, of course. Don manages to land a banking job that will pay him twelve hundred a year, but he's sure he can get promoted in a few months and have all the money his fiancee wants.
Meanwhile, Sally Winthrop, the firm's stenographer, watches Don's progress with a puzzled eye. He's never had a job before and doesn't quite grasp simple concepts like being on time. He seems to understand nothing of the value of money, and yet at the same time is awfully keen to make that ten thousand. Also, he's liable to starve during his first week, since he hasn't gotten paid yet. So she takes pity on him and tries to help in along in subtle ways, certain that he can become a success if he'll just listen to someone who knows the ropes.
Thus begins Don's education on real life and the gradual shifting of his perspective. A fun, sweet story,
