Carl Evans hires Susie away from Peter Sands by offering her more pay ($48 more a week); at first, she turns him down, but when Peter Sands tells her he can ""get along without her,"" she consents to move. She has a palatial new office, but is quickly bored, and eventually finds that Carl Evans does not listen to her advice the way Peter Sands used to. In order to get herself fired, she botches his coffee, wears ugly glasses, refuses to answer the phone, and spends hours on the phone with her friend Sylvia. He finally fires her and she goes back to Peter Sands, who rewards her with an expensive ($67.79) hat that she has been longing to buy.
