        Bryan Pickard, SAS business analyst, said of such an agent, "I expect to be best man at their wedding, be godparent to their children, and they to mine. We will exchange birthday cards and Christmas gifts, and support each other when times get tough... of course, in the real world, it is nothing like this."
