A Sticky Moment

Andrew was terrified on the first day in his new job and he wondered how he would stick it ..........
His girlfriend advised him not to let everyone boss him around and begged him to stick ......... for himself.
With this in mind and for his own self-respect he was determined to stick ......... it.
He made a good friend that first day who advised him to stick ......... him and ignore what anyone said.
A sudden moment of drama occurred when a man rushed into the office and told everyone to stick their hands ..........
He was rather sticking his neck ......... because Andrew had in fact once been a police officer.
At that precise moment Andrew thought it wasn't a very good idea to stick his oar ......... and interfere.
But it soon became clear to everyone that he had trained in this type of work as it stuck ......... a mile.
He calmly approached the gunman and told him to stick his gun .......... The latter did as he was told and handed Andrew the gun.
Understandably Andrew was cheered by everyone and since that day has been stuck ......... a reputation for being very brave.
