LYDIA ESPINOZA

Lydia Espinoza, administrative assistant.

She was hired only two months ago but is already seen as the glue that holds the department together.  Many people have commented that the New Product team would be lost without her.  Lydia, however, is not happy in her job, and recently filed a formal complaint about Jack because of what she perceives as derogatory comments about Latinos, though he denies it.

• Salary: $28,000
