Employee Application

Hello, my name is: Louise Ellis-Hall

I would like to apply as a Barista at I Like You A Latte

The things I love about this shop are: playing around with different flavors, doing latte foam art, complementary drinks, I can do small performances when its slow, I don't really have a "uniform" which is awesome.

The things I hate about this shop are: snobby customers, when an order is needlessly complicated, I find coffee beans in the weirdest of places, I'm on my feet literally ALL day, no matter how many times I wash them my hands always end up being sticky.

Oh, yes, there’s something else I need to tell you: Sometimes I could possibly bring my kalimba or guitar for work and can play for the cafe, maybe?

Owner Application

Hello, my name is Scytharia Blackwood

I would like to purchase Terror Tours

How did I come to get this shop? Well... After graduation, I came to the U.K. to travel and visit my cousin, but wanted to pick up some work while I was around. So I applied as a trip guide and planner for the Terror Tours and worked with the previous owner and their spouse (NPCs), learning about the area and the various existing tour packages. I loved the work and it gave me great opportunities to travel and have fun adventures, so I ended up staying longer. Just over a year after I started, the owners announced their plan to retire at the end of the year and offering to turn the business over to me. I’m honored of course, and it’s my dream job. But it’s a lot of responsibility and a lot to wrap up in three months!

The things I love about this shop are
-scouting for new adventures
-planning people’s vacations or expeditions
-going with customers as a tour guide and finding out about them on the journey.
-learning more about places
-eeking out free time on a trip to do one more spontaneous thing

The things I despise about this shop are
-customers who keep changing their minds
-haggling with shops and locations for better prices
-customers who are woefully unprepared or overburdened for an adventure or too shy
-thinking of quippy things for guide presentations
-there is always too much to do! We need more staff!

Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! Would have applied last year (Summer 2052) as a trip guide and planner.

Hello, my name is: Nasim Findlay-Abrams

I would like to apply as a Clerk at Sugarplums Sweet's Shop

The things I love about this shop are: The smells, the bright colors, arranging the different candies and confections, my boss is really flexible about hours, sweets discounts

The things I hate about this shop are: When kids try to lick products without paying for it, when kids put their sticky fingers on e v e r y t h i n g, when parents don't control their kid having a tantrum about sweets, everything makes you hungry even if you don't want sweets, when friends try to ask you for discounts.

Employee Application

Hello, my name is: Eion Delacroix

I would like to apply as a piercer at All or Nothing.

The things I love about this shop are: seeing other body art/mods, the laid-back yet professional atmosphere, owners not letting customers be total jerks, good pricing on everything, stabbing people doing cool piercings

The things I hate about this shop are: weird customers, pained screaming (if you can't handle it, go away), indecisive customers, people who don't want to pay for their work/metal, and people that don't follow care instructions then get an infection and come back to yell

Oh, yes, there’s something else I need to tell you: Despite only having one eye, I've gotten pretty good with piercings. I also studied a few healing spells that come in handy, plus I'm pretty good at providing care instructions to prevent damage or infections.

Employee Application

Hello, my name is: Fiana Arlin Byrnes

I would like to apply as a Shop Assistant at Synister Studios

The things I love about this shop are:
- I'm learning a lot about art and techniques used in art!
- I'm learning a lot about how instruments are constructed as well!
- There's usually time to study and practice my own drawing
- Finding ways to organize the paintings and instruments in the shop has been really fun.
- Diagon Alley is a great place to learn more about the magical world and Dris has always been happy to explain things I don't understand
- The kids! Occasionally getting to take care of Lewis and Rosa is a bunch of fun

The things I hate about this shop are:
- I'm always a mess after work and have to change-- even when I'm just working at the desk
- Cleaning up after lessons-- paint just gets everywhere!
- Washing brushes and palettes. Leftover paint is very sad.
- Magical money is weird.
- People sometimes have the strangest requests and insist they know better than the painter how to get it done. It's off-putting.

Oh, yes, there’s something else I need to tell you: This should have been in around October 2054.

Hello, my name is Yvonne Spencer

I would like to purchase Madam Primpernelle's Beautifying Potions

How did I come to get this shop? Well... I purchased it.

The things I love about this shop are the satisfaction that comes with removing acne, learning about advancements in skincare, helping others feel confident, working with beauty products, and the shop's aesthetic.

The things I despise about this shop are clients that try a potion once and claim it doesn't help, dealing with side effects from potions, defective products, clients that joke about inappropriate "facials", and clients that don't listen to my recommendations.
