[ FILTERED TO MINATO ]

Hey. My name's Matt; new arrival. I heard you are the arcade's owner. Nice place you got there. [and that's as far as he will go with pleasantries, but that's mostly because IT IS a nice place]

Are you guys hiring?

Comments

[socialbutterfly]

[Wait until we're done renovating; it'll be even nicer.]

Mhm, we are...

[Minato doesn't know who you are, but you want to work in the arcade which means you have good priorities, so he sounds as happy as a silent protagonist can manage.]

Right now we're looking for repair technicians and counter clerks. Do you have a preference?

[3rdbest]

Hm. [a pause, to think]

Counter clerk, I guess. I mean, I can't really fix arcade machines. [because he never tried]

[socialbutterfly]

How are your skills with people..?

[3rdbest]

[horrible.

Unless they are gamers. Then he might be a lot better]

Pretty good, I'd say. My social skills are pretty good. [ahahahah. ah........]

ok I am back now

[socialbutterfly]

What about your manipulation skills? [This is important too.]

wb! c:

[3rdbest]

Before answering that-

why would you want me to be able to manipulate someone?

no that was a premature back on my part, ugh this week

[socialbutterfly]

To make them play more, of course.

it's fine!

[3rdbest]

Then, that's easy as pie.

[socialbutterfly]

That's good. Any preference on hours?

[3rdbest]

What are the shifts available?

[socialbutterfly]

Ten to four and four to ten. You'll have to do both, but we can schedule one more than the other...

[3rdbest]

Uh. I like the night schedule more. Four to ten.

Do I get breaks or do I need to buy a lot of nicotine gum?

[socialbutterfly]

There are breaks... [He's not really sure when, though, since they've been short-staffed for a while. Sure, the occasional local comes in to help, but it's still hard to leave the counter alone.]

It's been a while since we've had a full staff. There's a fridge in the back you can use for drinks too. [It's full of the free drink brands from the grocery.]

[3rdbest]

Nicotine gum it is. [let's make this easy]

Okay, when you want me to start?

[socialbutterfly]

As soon as you can. I'll ask Chika-chan to help you... but the sooner you start, the sooner we can have breaks again.

[3rdbest]

After the mission, then. [not that he is going]

Should I call you "boss"?

[socialbutterfly]

Do you want to call me "boss"?

[3rdbest]

Nah, not really.

[socialbutterfly]

Then you don't have to. You can just call me Minato.

[3rdbest]

Okay, good.

I will see you then, Minato.

[socialbutterfly]

[He smiles.] I look forward to working with you, Matt-san.
