I hope you're understanding what I'm laying down here.

I think so, and I'll give it some thought (likely tomorrow, as I'm going to head out the door in an hour or so...), but I think there's been a bit of a miscommunication, and looking at what I've put up, it's on my head really, there's stuff that was quite clear in my head, but I didn't do a good job of explaining it.

You're not employees of Henderson's Ribs, but rather that Henderson's Ribs "Interplanetary Space Friends" club is, well, a club that you join. It started off as a way to get kids hooked on barbecue ribs, as well as harvest their contact information for direct marketing opportunities. Henderson's Ribs expands to dominate the fast-food industry on a galactic scale, hoovers up other corporations for no discernible reason, and the Kid Club turns into the Interplanetary Space Friends. People join the ISF, do good deeds, and trade those good deeds in for rewards (a slightly more civic-minded version of those arcade style places where you win tickets, and trade them in for goodies). Think of it less as "employees of Henderon's Ribs" and more like an organisation sponsored by Henderson's Ribs in order to make people think "Henderson's Ribs are great, they get people out doing good deeds!".

[@Lady Selune] - I was going to say that we're full, but, honestly, I reckon I can cram one more in. I was going to have everyone speak a sort of galactic common tongue, however (again, likely courtesy of Henderson's Ribs) - I'm not opposed to the idea of a robot that understands/sort-of-speaks every known language though, there'll likely be folks who stubbornly refuse to use the common tongue. When it comes to filling in your membership form, though, you might want to have another skill or two listed, just so you'll be a Valuable Addition To The Team when there's no translating required.

Apologies, as ever, for the rambling nature of this. My brain is going at a thousand miles an hour, courtesy of sugar, nervousness and caffeine.
