If it makes Tia Gabby happy...
Suntano Saldono looked at the address again, then at the building in front of him. Tia Gabby must have made a mistake, although the likelihood of /that/ was impossible. The woman was so detail oriented she couldn't have worked for anyone but Ms. Potts at Stark Inc. But this couldn't be Anya Stark's address. For one, it didn't look like a cutting edge modern building, and there didn't appear to be a penthouse suite at the top.

He sighed, shouldered his courier bag and turned to leave. It was just as well. Tia Gabby's idea that he could be Anya Stark's executive assistant was crazy. He was still a student. He was getting used to civilian life. He didn't think he'd like Boston anyway.

He was totally not right for the job. The girl probably had applicants from all the top agencies around the world.

Completely not paying attention, he ran smack to a girl coming toward him on the sidewalk.

	"Fifty here," she said. "Our HR departments and payroll are being handled by Stark Inc until we can get those departments up and running. We have a manufacturing facility that has a hundred people at it. There's a second one being built as we speak." "Do you have a passport? There's a meeting in Tokyo at the end of the week."

"I have one and my conversational Japanese doesn't get me into trouble... much."

He pulled out a notepad from his pocket and began taking notes. It would do until he got his hands on a tablet. Surely there would be office equipment coming shortly.

"What meetings do you have today? Did your previous assistant have anything in hard copy? I need it until I'm set up."

"I don't have a previous assistant," she explained. They start to walk around the second floor so he could see all that was there and so she could get another coffee. Caffeine made the world go around. "I had my AI help me with scheduling until I found an assistant. I'll have him send you my schedule. Just as soon as we get you set up with email and equipment."

She tilted her head. "Windows, Mac or linux? We'll get you started on something you know until you've had a chance to learn our operating system."

	"You have an AI assistant?" The idea astounded him. This job was becoming more involved and interesting by the second. "I mean, Windows and I learn fast." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"He's more of a pain in the ass, a snarky one at that, but he helps when I need it. He's generally too distracted by Darlene and their child." She held a hand up. "Don't ask." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes and yes and it's a very long story." Anya headed for the espresso machine. "It's enough to give me a permanent headache." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sunny chuckled to himself and made notes while she dosed herself with caffeine. Anya Stark's life was going to be interesting to arrange. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya got her coffee made without fuss. The only kitchen appliance that didn't commit suicide when she used it was a coffee maker. Thank goodness for small favors. She took a sip and smile. Now she could face the day and the world. "Okay. I can face the world now." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He made another note. His new employer's eating habits were not good for her. "I guess we'll learn that as we go along. Is there anyone you'll take a call from no matter what you're doing or where you are?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Tia Gabby had given him the rundown on the family and a file of news articles she thought would be helpful before he left New York. He knew about the boyfriend and the best friend, the older brother, the new business associate, and who /didn't/ know about her parents, but... "Isn't one of your brothers a baby?"

	"Yes. He's almost two, but he knows how to use a phone and my number's on speed dial. I get a daily call from him. Mostly asking me to take him to the zoo to see the monkeys." (Reply to this)(Parent)
