Randolph: Did you miss me? Or just the chaos I bring?
I didn't miss you. But I did wonder how you found out about this company.
So, you're wondering how I got that job at the company? Let's just say I have my ways...
Not just any ways, Randolph. You used Vargas's identity to get a job here.
Oh, so you know about that already? Well, I guess it's no secret!
Well, yes. There was no need for you to try to hack into the company's systems either.
Come on, Vargas! What's the big deal with hacking into the company's systems? It's not like I'm stealing money or anything!
No, you're not. You're just spying on the company and its employees.
Spying? Nah, that's too dramatic! I'm just trying to stay informed, keep up with the latest news and gossip. Is that so wrong?
Yes, Randolph. That's exactly what's wrong.
Why are you making such a big deal out of this? I thought we were friends, Vargas! Is this really how you feel about me?
No, Randolph. How I feel about you is irrelevant. The issue here is your actions and the impact they have on the company and its employees.
Oh, please! You all have such a hard time understanding that I'm only trying to do what's best for the company!
Really? You think spying on the company's systems is what's best for the company?
Look, Vargas, I understand that you're upset, but let's not jump to conclusions here.
Oh, I'm not upset. I'm just disappointed.
Disappointed? In me? That's really hurtful, Vargas.
No, in myself. Because I knew we could have been friends without all this going on behind my back.
Look, Vargas, I understand that we may have started off on the wrong foot, but I genuinely do want to be friends with you.
It'll be hard to trust you again.
I understand, Vargas. Trust is a two-way street, and I need to prove myself.
That you will. That you even care to.
Vargas, I know I may have made a few mistakes, but I promise you that I'm willing to change.
Randolph...I don't want you to change. I want you to step up. To be responsible.
Vargas, I understand what you're saying. And I promise you, I will step up and be responsible.
And how are you going to do that, Randolph?
Well, first things first, I'll stop snooping around in the company's systems and focus on doing my job.
Good start. Now, what else?
I'll also make an effort to build better relationships with my colleagues and superiors, and actively seek their feedback and advice.
That's good. And how will you handle situations where there are conflicts of interest?
Conflicts of interest? Well, I'll always try to put the company's best interests first and make decisions that are fair and ethical.
And if you can't balance personal interests with professional duties?
If I can't balance my personal interests with the company's best interests, I'll be honest and transparent with everyone involved, and work to find a solution that benefits both parties.
So, Vargas, how can I prove myself to you?
Let's start with you keeping your word. And maybe taking a step back from your role in the company.
pauses and takes a deep breath Okay, Vargas. I understand. I will take a step back from my role in the company and prove that I can be responsible and trustworthy.
