What have you been doing ?" "Working," said Carrie.
"You don't say so! At what ?" She told him.
"Rhodes, Morgenthau and Scott--why, I know that house over here on Fifth Avenue, isn't it?
They're a close-fisted concern.

What made you go there ?" "I couldn't get anything else," said Carrie frankly.
"Well, that's an outrage," said Drouet.

"You oughtn't to be working for those people.

Have the factory right back of the store, don't they ?" "Yes," said Carrie.
"That isn't a good house," said Drouet.

"You don't want to work at anything like that, anyhow." He chatted on at a great rate, asking questions, explaining things about himself, telling her what a good restaurant it was, until the waiter returned with an immense tray, bearing the hot savoury dishes which had been ordered.
