There's Gold's Gym!

Permalink

And what, inside of Gold's Gym, pattern-matches to the receptionist/Customer Service archetype?

Permalink

This guy at this desk over here fidgeting with a resistance band! "Hi!" he says. "Wow, you're really hot. Do you want to go to a nice restaurant on me and then have sex?"

Permalink

"—ooh!" she says, bouncing excitedly. "Do you have a human penis? Will you show it to me? I want to see one!!! —oh, but I have important things to do first. I need to get a free Gold's Gym membership so I can have somewhere to shower so I won't smell bad so the grocery store will hire me! After that I can do other things."

Permalink

"I do and I will! I need to put a credit card for you on file for the membership."

Permalink

"I don't have a credit card and I don't know how to get one and I'm a little worried that it'll be difficult because things keep turning out to have more steps than they looked like they would!"

Permalink

"Oh. Well, if you just need a shower you can shower at my place every time you have sex with me!"

Permalink

"...could I live at your place? Then I would have a home and I would not be homeless and the Customer Service person at the grocery store would not be worried about me smelling bad! Also, what's a credit card?"

Permalink

"You can live at my place if we're regularly having sex and you're not awful to live with! A credit card is like this." He produces his.

Permalink

She peers intently at the credit card. "What is it for? Why do I need one to get a gym membership?"

Permalink

"It lets you pay for things with your bank account instead of cash. The gym membership is only free for the first month if we can charge you later because that's how we make money, but people are more likely to try it if it's not going to cost anything right away."

Permalink

"That makes sense. Okay! What is your address so I can tell it to Customer Service at the grocery store?"

Permalink

"It's 55 Maple Street but I kind of want to have sex first before I let you use my address," he says. "If you're in a hurry we could lock ourselves in the family restroom."

Permalink

"Hmm... okay," she says, a little reluctantly but not without excitement. Human penis!!! They're so mysterious! People she has met before now have been inexplicably reluctant to show them to her!

Permalink

This guy is not reluctant to show his to her! Once they are in the family restroom there it is!

Permalink

She is so very earnestly delighted by his human penis. It's a funny shape and a pleasant texture and it responds to environmental conditions in interesting ways!

Having sex with Bird may turn out to be a slightly surreal, but on the whole enjoyable, experience.

Permalink

"That was good," he tells her. "I especially like the thing where you were so excited to see it, that made me feel good about myself. You can go ahead and tell people you live at 55 Maple Street."

Permalink

"It was very exciting to see! I will go ahead and tell people that. Probably I will see you again either here or at our house later today! Goodbye!"

Triumphant return to the grocery store!

Permalink

The grocery store clerk will hire her when she provides an address as long as she assures them she'll get a phone number from her new boyfriend in the next few days! She can go shadow Kelly at the deli counter, who has been asking for an assistant.

Permalink

"Hello, Kelly at the deli counter! I don't know very much about grocery stores but it seems like it will be interesting to learn!"

Permalink

"You're really chipper and that makes me wistful about no longer being young," says Kelly.

"I don't want a pound of bologna because I think it's disgusting and my wife likes to fry it which smells horrendous but it's on my list and I will pay for it," says a man on the other side of the counter, and Bird can watch Kelly slice some bologna.

Permalink

"I haven't been a human for very long and so far I am enjoying it a lot!!" she says agreeably to Kelly.

When the man orders his bologna, she tells him with earnest sympathy, "I hope you also buy some food that you enjoy!"

Permalink

"Nah, she'd catch me if I got Pepsi," he says glumly. Off he goes.

Bird can learn by observation how to handle slicing machines and the scales and how to wrap things up sanitarily.

Permalink

Humans do such tasks and they do them in such ways! She's very chipper about this.

Permalink

At some point during the day the manager comes by with an apron and temporary nametag for her and says he'll take the cost out of her first paycheck, which she will get next Friday, and he shows her the schedule, which has her coming in from eight to three every day.
