Thomas tried to give Jamie a reassuring, though tired, smile. "It's becoming rapidly less pleasant by the day. Co-workers who are not all that nice, actually. I am having coffee with Clea on Thursday. Do you remember her? I did my teaching rounds with her and then she let me stay on and help out for pay because apparently I looked a bit pitiful while I was studying. It was a while ago now though. I might see if she has a position at her school." It was an all-girls boarding school and very different from his current job, but he had enjoyed his teaching rounds there very much.
