Read Simmons had just landed a new job as the Head of DigitalHorizons, a tech startup run by the enigmatic Sam Wilson. The offer came out of the blue, and Read was ecstatic. He imagined himself leading a bustling team of tech wizards and innovating cutting-edge solutions. He'd left a steady role at a leading software company for this opportunity—an adventure, a chance to carve his own path in the tech world.
The night before his first day, Sam sent Read an email with the office details: Block 7, Building 3, Office 4. Sam had insisted Read be there bright and early at 8:00 AM, promising an exciting start. Read wondered if they would brainstorm their first groundbreaking project or discuss strategies to disrupt the market.
