WHO: The Job Fair and You!
WHERE: A small park near City Hall
WHEN: Today
WARNINGS: Capitalism?
SUMMARY: It's the job fair. Come one, come all.
FORMAT: Para to start then whatever

It's the most wonderful time of the year. The sun is shining, the mosquitoes are biting, and it's time to think about what the hell you're doing to do with your life now that the summer is winding down. Which is probably why you've ended up at the City Hall sponsored First Semi-Annual Job Fair Spectacular.

The small park has been pretty much taken over by this event. Tables for each company/group that signed up are in rows with either a representative to speak with or a held down stack of promotional materials for any interested parties to pick up. Good luck, job hunters.

[[ooc: Each group that signed up in the OOC post will get a thread below. Even if there are only fliers there, feel free to leave a comment to let the player who runs the company know yours is interested. People manning booth, just start a thread under your group's heading with a description of what's up. Feel free to bump into people and just generally interact as well. If you have a group you'd like to add that you didn't sign up on the ooc post, feel free to add them! April did literally no vetting. Everyone is welcome.]]

[ she glances up from her sketchpad and her eyes go wide that very instant, lips stretching into a line. ]

Oh, um. Yeah.

It seems all major imPort-related businesses have some representation here. [ she sits back in her chair, letting out a small laugh. ] With that much to select from, not many are left to care about a magazine like ours.

[glowsferatu]

Our founding editor named it. She thought it shine like a beacon in the face of everything else they were throwing in our direction at the time, but that's just how Donna was. Optimistic.

[ but even a cynic like kanaya couldn't help finding her influential. congratulations renee, the last adult this girl really truly trusted was the little sister of motherfucking wonder woman. ]

[glowsferatu]

Yes, Donna Troy. She was... [ donna troy... how do you begin to describe donna troy? ] Well. Suffice to say that it hasn't been the same without her.

[glowsferatu]

It's been a year, I'm over it.

[ which totally explains why she's mentioning it now. ] So, are the police using this as a new recruitment initiative as well?

[glowsferatu]

I suppose most people don't go seeking out thankless jobs, they simply resolve themselves to them.

[ well, unless they're kanaya of course. ]

[glowsferatu]

[ she just shrugs, she's always had a line ready for that one. ]

The jobs must be done, and there must be someone to do them. That is the resolution demanded.

[glowsferatu]

[ she scoffs, treating it like a joke. it's easier that way. ]

My life as contained in the outer shell of certain indehiscent seeds. [ just say nutshell, god. ]

[glowsferatu]

But, aside from this whole event and whatever dubious expansion it may provide our employers, how have you been?

[glowsferatu]

[ that nets a quirked brow. ]

Standard. It isn't a question you like being asked, is it?

[glowsferatu]

Not when it doesn't seem to be meant.

[ which is honestly pretty much all the time, at least the way she tends to use it. ]

[glowsferatu]

[ kanaya can't help but appreciate the irony. ]

Well, those are familiar words.

[glowsferatu]

Yes, that certainly sounds different. Similar areas, at least, but very different details.

Do you...remember what was tampered with? [ it seems like a stupid question at its face, but then she knows that it occurred, so kanaya can't be totally sure. ]
