Blaise listened to Vinco's speech from a small distance. She felt his anguish, and she started unblinkingly as he pulled the trigger and shot himself. After having coffee with her boss, she decided to go back to the corner where Vinco had killed himself, and listened at what several people had to say. I have to admit, part of me feels for this poor soul. According to him, he had the chance to be a crew leader for a short time, and then when he closed up shop, he didn't have the opportunity to get another prominent position.
I had to bring up that part to my boss for some clarification, because I was not sure what Vinco meant by that. It sounded like Vinco was very upset about his business going belly up because of the transfer.
It seems like because Vinco wasn't in the "big leagues" he couldn't connect with the rest of his family, which frustrated him. For someone who had the chance to set up, I would think he should have had the know-how to make himself useful to his organization. If he felt that opportunities were not being provided to him, he could have created his own (assuming that they went with, and not against the family's goals). I think a lot of people could identify with Vinco on some level - the need to feel like you are valued, and to be rewarded with a certain level of trust and responsibility. Too bad he didn't feel he could initiate a discussion with his leader about how to make use of his abilities, and too bad he didn't have anyone to talk to him so he could be guided towards a more positive path. |
