A middle manager with a large collection of nearly identical ties. He drives like the world will end if he does not arrive soon enough. In the evening, when not cleaning his car collection, he likes to spend time with his tortoise.

Her

Six years dry, she is now a sales rep for a slightly shady pharmaceutical firm. If she is lucky, she might see her children at the weekend. Her lease will end in another seven months and she thinks she might move somewhere less expensive.
