[Tsukikage thankfully waits to listen to what the man has to say. And honestly, he's heard worst resumes. At least Jonathan has been studying and has the experience of tertiary-level education.]

I understand. [Honestly, he loves the long-winded speech. It was such an old-fashioned way of doing things. He's prone to that himself.] If you are unfamiliar with all forms of work and have no preferences, then I'll have you work in one of my smaller businesses. [It still feels weird for him to say that.]

How are your people-skills then, Mr. Joestar?

[standless]

[They can get along. Compare notes. Long winded speeches, growing ever more long winded. Regardless, Jonathan nods- he has no issues working in a 'smaller' business, and if anything it feels as though that may be for the best. It will likely be easier to adjust then.]

By people skills, do you perhaps ask about how I socialize with others? [he asks.] I cannot of course speak for all individuals and how they respond...but at the very least, I strive to remain courteous regardless of whom I'm speaking to. Everyone, ultimately, deserves some respect until it is proven unwarranted.

[Like with Zombies. Zombies like to prove Very Fast that it's not warranted, and that's about when anvils get thrown.]

[intercalaryninja]

[It's possibly the start of a very wordy friendship.

Tsukikage gives a nod and listens.]

That's a very good approach, especially to customer service. Politeness, helpfulness are all essential to interacting with customers. And how are you with handiwork? Crafting things if you have instructions, I mean?

[standless]

[Speedwagon may or may not die.]

I do not have much to draw on from past experience, but... [he trails off only briefly into thought, genuinely wishing to compare the memory.] At the very least, I was once able to improvise a hang glider to escape from harm with my fellows. It didn't require much instruction of course, [he chuckles- because Of Course it wouldn't, right, it's a hamon hang glider-] But I have little doubt that the efforts elsewhere could be worth a try.

[intercalaryninja]

You learn quickly and you're able to improvise. I'm sure that you'll be able to pick up the skills you need then. Now, final question for the time being...

Have you ever had experience with make up? Applying it or making it?

[standless]

[.................the interview was going great, untillllll That.

Not that it's going...Poorly exactly, it's just a question he didn't at all expect. Appl-

What] Pardon?

[He can't help himself. Oh right, he also said...making?] I've not done much chemistry, if that's what you're inquiring...I did briefly do some studies on poisons, though that was for quite a more immediate matter... [Which is to say, someone was Dying,]

Is there a particular reason you ask?

[intercalaryninja]

Ah, poisons. Maybe I can ask for your help on some in the future, if you have experience.

[Tsukikage shakes his head, stopping himself from going off topic.]

For your first job, I feel like we shouldn't toss you in a big crowd like working here at the theatre. Rather, I'd like you to work at my makeup store, Viper Cosmetics. We take naga scales Nagas don't want anymore and make beauty products out of them. The last owner was a naga you see. I have plenty of scales but no one to help me make and sell the product. I ask because I wanted to see if you'd be interested or would like to try.

[standless]

Oh- it's only passing, I assure you, [he insists, his protest cut short as the spider explains. Ahhhh...

...

Naga are...probably snake creatures, he thinks quietly. He's pretty sure he saw mention of those in books...] Oh- I see...at the very least, I'm open to learning, [Jonathan determines easily.] If you've the patience to train me, then I would gladly take up the role.

[Grinding scales seems like a physically demanding task, so he's at least certain he can have...Some skill for it. He's pretty strong.]

[intercalaryninja]

[Shhh... let him be impressed, Jonathan.]

Sounds excellent. I don't expect you to give customers advice or help them use test samples. Just mind the cash register and work in the back. We can do a full training course on... does Monday suit you?

[Tsukikage's really become a proper business man in the last year.]

[standless]

[He is...assuming the cash register will also have training involved, because boy he has seen the ones here and they look like absolute confusion.] It works perfectly, [he insists with an honest smile.] I'll be able to come as early as necessary for the training then.

[Jonathan has not adjusted to work bartering...at all.]

[intercalaryninja]

[Too bad Tsukikage sees it as a good work ethic and is ready to take full advantage of it.]

Do you have free time tomorrow? If so, we could start your training there. Tomorrow the store is usually fairly quiet so we can take advantage of that.

[standless]

I do, yes. [Arguably he has nothing But time.] That sounds perfect then- I've only been in a few stores of this place, but they seem to be far more bustling than those I experienced in my own time. A quiet period seems perfect to train upward from.

I guess we drop this here

[intercalaryninja]

Then I'm looking forward with working to you, Mr. Joestar.

[And they can shake on it. Thank God... he has more help around the shop.]
