The second and third days are the worst!

Emi left after explaining what I have to do. The rest of the staff aren't here yet since work starts at eight-thirty am, in another hour. I looked through a stack of paper. 'Job listings, they all seem fairly normal. Request for missing animals, escaped criminals and jobs for guards.' Then I saw a small stack of papers near the edge of the desk. 'What's this?' I flipped through the stack. 'Reports of missing people...' I got to the last sheet. 'Huh? This boy looks familiar. He looks a lot like Kiyo!' Before I could read the listing the door opened.

"Hello! I'm a new staff, my name is Cecilia, I'll be working here for the next year or so." "Oh, a new worker. You can take part of that stack of paper and start approving listings. If you have any questions look for anyone who isn't busy at the moment." "Okay, thank you!" I took a few papers and started reading them. Within the next half hour, the room quickly became crowded. During lunch, I walked around the guild. Since this village was close to the capital, we got many requests from merchants who needed guards. Leaving a village was apparently considered very dangerous.

I got off work at three pm, a bit earlier than I was supposed to since it was my first day. Not many people enjoy working at the Adventurer's Guild due to the fact that there are an abundance of adventurers. The guild has tried to make it up to it's staff by paying extra for overtime work but some still complain that they should adjust the work hours. Before going home I stopped by the church. 'Maybe I should make job listings for anyone who wants to help out here.' I did some cleaning and greeted a few people who stopped by.

-Two days later-

It's my fourth day working at the guild! The last two days were gruelling since the queen herself requested adventurer to go to the capital and act as her guards. My fellow coworkers decided not to spare me and had me deal with all the listings that had to be pushed back. I ended up working an extra six hours, but instead of getting a bonus I chose to ask if I could make listings for volunteers for the church. The manager, to my surprise, actually agreed.
