Mary Dupontesco waiting outside the hip Gallery Mavo Fazed awaiting her interview for an unpaid internship with the potential of making some high calibre contacts.
Intercom voice: ‘Yes, this is Gallery Mavo Fazed can I help you?’
‘I’ve got an appointment to see Carlos Moninski at 10.30am.’
‘And you are?’
‘Miss Dupontesco.’
‘Okay, I’m onto it.’
Ten minutes later.
Mary looks at her watch and feels the last few coins in her pocket.
Twenty minutes later.
‘Miss Duponteso, our chief curator is in an executive meeting now. You will have to come back later on next year as a deferred applicant. Is that okay?’
Mary pauses for a moment…’Yes…yes that will be fine.’
