I'm writing a scenario that describes what one person did when he worked for a company and want to use proper names for readability, but not use the real names of the people or company. But my phrasing keeps coming off as awkward. What's a clearer way to do this? Example 1: > My friend "Chuck" who worked for a vendor "ThisCo" decided he'd had enough. Example 2: > My friend (I'll call him "Chuck") worked for a vendor (I'll call it "ThisCo") decided he'd had enough.
