Not a Huge Leap for Me Either Written by Jezkalyn (2/20/2013 10:06 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Land agent qualifications?, penned by AnnBD

Tom as land agent was not too big a leap for me to make. After all, they weren't hiring the position from all possible applicants in the most modern of ways. Robert and Matthew are hiring internally, as it were. With his background, albeit conveniently inserted into his character with one line, Tom is certainly the best qualified of anyone in the family and certainly more qualified than either of the other men available, Matthew or Robert. By hiring him Matthew and Robert are honoring the old ways of keeping it in the family and giving Tom a position and purpose.
