Summary
They arrive in Phoenix on Sunday and move into their rented apartment. They scout the way to Lambdatron (in a suburb, Tempe). Tanisha admits that she doesn't know much about cooking, and Jon, who doesn't know much either, agrees to help with meals. On Monday morning, dressed in standard business attire, they arrive at their new workplace. Everyone is wearing outrageous T-Shirts; they are confused until it is explained that this is Lambdatron's version of dress-down day. Molly leads them through a lot of paperwork, and they meet Jim (Griz) Geletzke and then Stan Warshawski, who introduces them to the Lambdatron unofficial motto of "Break the Paradigm" and explains about how most employees are shareholders in the company. Jim walks them over to the office that they will be using for the summer, and when he mentions that he went through Georgia Tech on an athletic scholarship, Jon remembers how his name was mentioned from time to time by the football broadcaster. There are four desks in their office, and Jim mentions that there were supposed to be two other interns, but one had been hurt in a car accident and the other had taken a job closer to home in Illinois. When Jon realizes that he was going to work at Hadley-Monroe, he started laughing his head off, saying "The poor, poor bastard. No Tasteless T-shirt Thursdays either."
