In the ships. There’s so much down there, they were kitted to feed huge crews for extended periods. Imagine being the main character in an apocalypse movie and you walk into a grocery store that is completely untouched.

@Magnanimity

That almost sounds like it would be nice at first... especially if you had a cat to keep you company.

Where I lived for what I learned to be close to a year. Just a graveyard of dead warships left over from the war with Existence.

@Magnanimity

How'd you find food?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Oh, uh… Thanks. Might just be by necessity though. I’d have gone mad during my time stranded in the scrapyard if I wasn’t.

@Magnanimity

*Looks back into the snow*
What's the scrapyard?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

You sound fine to me. Could also just be that your boss like, actually cares for you. So they want you to have a place to be and a purpose.

@Magnanimity

*Turns my head and locks eyes with you*
You’re a real optimist, Robyn. A ray of sunshine. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

If the job were replaceable by robots, surely that would have come to pass a long time ago.

@Magnanimity

You would think, wouldn’t you?
*Sighs*
Above my pay grade.

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Honestly, based on everything I’ve seen? Seems like there’s more job security in that than being at the bottom of the barrel in the pool of people who want all that power. Way more of them.

@Magnanimity

Yeah, until they figure out that robots are cheaper.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

It is important to have someone who does a lot of the small things.

@Magnanimity

Maybe it is. But I'm also replaceable.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Your best is probably good enough. I used to get impostor sundrome about my work all the time too. It’s normal.

@Magnanimity

It just doesn't feel all that important. Which is fine, I don't have any sort of drive to be someone important, but it really doesn't help the feeling of job security.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Do you think you’re bad at it?

@Magnanimity

*Shrugs*
I try to do enough to get by. I don't really have any special skills or talents in particular.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

As long as it doesn’t involve roping me into any shenanigans. I do not want involved in anything else out here of that sort.

@Magnanimity

I really don't know what she's going to ask. It's beyond me why I still have a job.
