Brandy, the president of ABC Communication., and Sam orally agreed that Sam
would work as a computer programmer for ABC Co. for a three-year period. Their oral agreement
also covered other matters such as his pay and the availability of one week of paid vacation. On
the day he talked with Brandy, Sam signed an employee handbook including a provision that his
employment was at will, meaning that at any time he could quit or the company could discharge
him. A month later, Sam received a three-year contract for employment with ABC Co. in the mail
incorporating the amount of his salary and other issues he had discussed with Brandy. Sam
signed it and mailed it back, but he changed the vacation provision to three weeks instead of one
week. Bobby, the human resources manager for ABC Co., called Sam up after Bobby received the
agreement and told Sam that the contract was only a draft for discussion purposes and that he
was actually firing Sam because he seemed too focused on vacation. Assuming the court follows
