Tumble out of bed and stumble to the kitchen
WHO: Tony Stark and YOU
WHERE: Starktech, De Chima, VA
WHEN: August 13th, anytime during the day
WHAT: JOB FAIR + a day in the usual Starktech scene
WARNINGS: Will edit if necessary
[ Days at StarkTech were long -- most people worked hours beyond the average eight, but in the faces of the employees -- even the native citizens -- showed one thing: that it wasn't forced, but they were often on the edge of a breakthrough, something new to discover, something new and greater. The next great thing. Today, August thirteenth, was a day with more bustle than usual. The lobby, which was normally pristine, with only a few plants, couches, receptionist, and a small table with refreshments had all been moved aside -- instead there was still only the receptionist desk, but every wall -- or in the case of the all-glass facade -- was lined with tables, displays, projects, and everything else one could imagine. Practice, a test run for the weekend, but also because there had been an advert in the paper this week -- something on the news -- and on all the hiring websites -- as well a a few projections and screens around the city of De Chima all announcing the same thing: Job Fair. Everyone welcome.
It was implied, of course, where Starktech was involved, that one had to have the skills to participate, but the merely curious got weeded out pretty quickly, and then ignored. The large table -- displaying pizzas and sodas, and there was even a place to drop off information, resumes, and talk about potential projects with the owner, if one wanted to wait for him to swing back around. There were tours through some of the upper levels -- but none of the levels with R&D, primarily underground for a reason, although the first basement was open for tours -- nonsensitive projects allowed on that one. To give some a taste of the sorts of projects involved in the company.
And Tony Stark circled around and around, taking the entire day to smile and offer his ear, and do the required networking and show himself off as the owner of the company, but also to interact.
And he also stopped by with his employees, pulled them aside to check in on them when necessary -- just to stop and make sure that the Thursday away from their projects was appreciated, and also relaxing.
Every now and then, paying your employees to take a day to network and enjoy themselves paid off, in his experience. ]
[ Prospective employees and current employees welcome! You don't necessarily need to participate in the open house, but feel free to play around in the thread, if you want to interact with one another! ]
