His/her bid was the last remaining after everyone else had bid. It is by definition the most junior position in the company, at least until the next class.

Change??
Do they still give the 8 ball, the 8 ball to hold until the next class? I thought I heard someone objected to having to guard it so they stopped it. Too bad if so. I know our class really enjoyed that tradition. We stole the baby class' 8 ball and made them buy the pizza and beer on Friday to return it.
