Experts on Call


(in character)
It pays to have access to the best talent available, people who, in a pinch, can provide knowledge and expertise at a critical juncture in an organization's development.

Recently, we at TRU Industries were apprised of a poorly-considered, and inconvenient investigation, being undertaken by Assistant District Attorney Ellie S. Apparently, the Lady DA was under the mistaken impression that evidence of felonious activity could be unearthed, implicating TRU Industries in "trafficking" schemes.

My corporate officers assured me that no such evidence had ever been allowed to exist. Still, to err on the side of caution, and to avoid thousands in unnecessary legal fees and untold damage to our corporate image, we've called in an out-of-town consultant (whose anonymity will be respected here).

Our new consultant is widely regarded as a crack negotiator, and his professionalism shone through, immediately.

Late one night, earlier this week, our consultant contacted the Lady DA, and invited her for some face-to-face private discussions about the matter. Ellie graciously agreed to accompany our consultant to a venue conducive to deep, sober discussions -- the TRU Automobile Recycling Plant, on the outskirts of town.

Early reports are very encouraging.

Our consultant indicates that he is making substantial progress, and that the ill-advised case against TRU Industries will soon disappear.



He also indicates that the Lady DA will be taking a very extended vacation, as soon as he's finished tying up a few loose ends.


Satisfactory results are expected, soon.
