ysabet, TBF first thing he did was go to Tai and ask her if she wanted someone else to supervise Claire. Very ethical.
enchantedsleeper
I don't think he *was* her boss, since being a regular member of a team she was an intern on didn't make him able to fire her, it just meant he was more senior. Tai was still the boss.

Up next: Marten wanders in to peep some tentacles and JellyDirector finally own up to being a huge Deathmøle fan.

Yeah, I'm aware of that. And I think swapping places will bother Claire more than it will Marten.
Justin Seifert
Foreshadow: 1) This job is going to consume a lot of Claire's time. 2) Martin is not going to find something he loves/wants to do in Cube town for employment

This is probably the origin story of Warhammer 40K's Librarian Armor....

He was her boss

At the very least the Chief Librarian's black waistcoat, whistle, mousebot, and Charter Magic infused sword. All hail Claire of the Clayr!

I really love that the local librarian might be the most powerful human in Cubetown, though. Makes me all tingly!

'Being needed' is a very powerful form of seduction. I think she'll do great, me; but I think Cubetown'll drive her to new levels of batshit. And Marten just may end up with his girlfriend as his boss-- he has to do *something* if he's living there too, right?

Simply put, they're not asking her to be only a librarian/information management person. Her remuneration here should be beyond a simple starting salary kinda thing. She should also have some significant benefits attached.
enchantedsleeper
Agreed. Is it one that you can make tangible progress with? Or will it just be a series of averted disasters (with further disasters waiting in the wings)?

The Director bloops quietly. The Director bloops. The Director. The.

The easy way to tell an alligator from a crocodile? An alligator will eat you later, while a crocodile will eat you after a while. (I'll go quietly, occifer Raccoon.)

On site full time to get up to speed and as necessary afterwards. Remote as an option most of the time. For AIs "remote" and "present" already are more flexible concepts
Jan Gampe
"Au contraire Claire" should be a phrase like "Take a hike Mike" or "see you later, alligator".

There’s probably a version of this where Claire makes some recommendations and policies as remote work. Less stress than actually living there, which keeps Claire’s sanity higher.

The beginning of Claire's Supervillain Arc.

It's a gorgeous page. I am still worried about Claire. Pushing back on Cubetown's nonsense seems like a Sisyphean task.
