Offer to the CEO

Friday, continued

Thirty-five minutes after leaving M Mall, the Anna arrived at the University Gates where she was not only met by Jodie but by some university officials and was quickly escorted to the Law school and into a lecture theatre.

As Jodie was helping her get set up, she turned and said "Boss, this reminds me of the drafting classes you would give at ANX, and some of them there have still not learnt how to draft."

Laughing Anna responded "Jodie …"

"Well boss that is part of what you and the big boss are paying me for, keeping you totally grounded. And you know it is true, there are some lawyers at ANX that still have not learnt to draft well and you must fix it. I am better than a few of them."

Laughing Anna said "Jodie, calm down."

"That is the boss I know, light-hearted and ready for fun."

A few minutes later, they finally finished setting up with the help of university staff. While sitting waiting for the student to arrive, Anna turned to Jodie, "In all seriousness Jodie, how are you enjoying being here?"

"Boss, we were both worried about making the move, however we are both enjoying ourselves, and the money cannot be passed up. Mercenary, I know, but it must be said. It has been sink or swim with respect to learning the language and with the classes and help at work, I am learning more and more, but my smart husband given his previous language skills has adapted more quickly."

"Plus, the workload is a real bonus. There is a level of work with ANX, which I can do in my sleep, and then the work from your charitable initiative and that Madam Yao gives me is not too heavy. The only thing that I must occasionally is fight with senior supervisors attempting to dump work on me. They come and state that I am a secretary within the department and therefore they can dictate what I have to do."

"When that happens, boss and neither you or Madam Yao are available is simply call Assistant Wang. He puts a quick stop to it all or puts them onto the big boss who sets them straight.  John has already moved his way up to a shift supervisor. The company he is working for recognises his skills. More importantly, through insisting on implementing of certain work practices not only has he helped them see an improvement in productivity and safety on the worksites he has helped them reduce costs."

"Now Boss, something is going on, and I want the truth."

"All will be revealed in the next couple of weeks. Now you are ready to come back on Tuesday for the wedding ceremony?"

"John is going to miss me but there is no way I could miss this. Now, stop distracting me boss, are you ready for this?"

"As best I can be."Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

Within the next few minutes students started to drift into the lecture room, before the staff member introduced Anna.

"At the outset, I have to thank the University for inviting me to come an give this lecture. I remember my university days, and rather than having you take notes, and hear but not understand what I am going to talk about, I will have for uploading into your system detailed notes and assisting documents for you. Additionally, with me today is my assistant Jodie. Her email address is in the materials and if you have questions, she will be your initial contact point. She was my assistant in Australia for three years and has relocated here to continue to work as my assistant."

"In talking to your teachers, part of this course is about gaining an understanding of different legal systems in different countries. Let me tell you from experience that it can be a shock in trying to understand it. You learn the system in the country where you study and become so use to it, when confronted with a different system, it throws you. All you want to do is be critical of the system as it is not what you are used to and operate in."

"Legal systems have their differences, but at their core, there are two main distinct traditions which become influenced by country factors. One is that based on a situation where the judge is heavily involved in trying to get to the truth of a matter, and the other where the judge is very much a bystander listening to the information provided by lawyers involved in the case before deciding what is the truth."
