You search and search but you cannot find the document he wants. Your five minutes are up. He asks if you had found it yet.

Then he says it is fine because he has to attend the meeting. The meeting does not go as smoothly as he wanted it be. There have been instances of people losing their chance at a new business because of lack of proper documents. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Page 1
