I took the same exact path as Joseph, and my wallet is quite happy for doing so! Though, I would have been fine without getting slimed on. But these things happen.

Your arcade cabinet is absolutely legendary. I love it, as well as the name!

Have a great time at Comic Con, and how cool that you will be part of a panel. Enjoy your time away, Geoffrey! Thanks for the fun adventure.

My first round was successful, great boss! - the Blob gave me this huge envelope of cash just for being me :.) Idk why the Blob gets such a bad wrap, I blame our heteronormative patriarchy

Congrats on the Relaxatorium! It looks awesome and I hope you enjoy your break. I'm currently on a similar break, and just popped in to get Blobbed.

I successfully murdered the Blob! Well, murdered is a harsh evaluation. I ended his life and celebrity status permanently. High risk equals high reward. I was never cut out to be an assistant anyhow.

That's awesome news about the arcade cabinet and the SDCC Ink game panel! I suspect it will be well received and attended and you will get fame, glory and riches from your participation. Speaking of Ink, I'm in the middle of it and I'm excited by how the text adventure we discussed is progressing. Onward!

I'm a good assistant. He may be a slime, but he's paying me good money. I got his vitamins and sent him to Cyprus. I am too ethical to lie to a reporter and would have told her that my boss isn't afraid of her. He doesn't want to talk to "a dirty, dirty, smear merchant."

Maybe, just maybe, the ship will sink on the way to Cyprus, and he'll sink to the bottom of the ocean. But that won't be my fault.

Until that happens, I'll be the best employee I can be.

I stayed loyal to the blob, but only because the alternatives felt too risky. Then as usual I tried to get every variation I could find.

Guide: You'll only be able to pursue two of the three tasks, and each has two outcomes. Complying moves you on, each bit of rebellion immediately gets you a different ending when you report on it. Only case I've found of those endings changed based on other ones is both booking yourself a flight and getting the acid.

If you want to loud quit you could get one of those airplane banner things to fly over announcing your departure. Good way of making sure at least someone sees it. Alternatively you could destroy your boss in a video game and loudly proclaim that you can't work for someone so weak.
