I've been seeing lots of posts raining on our parade saying that there will be an unfair power imbalance if Stolas (once stripped of his title and wealth) ends up working for I.M.P. and dating Blitz at the same time. I disagree, and I'm about to explain why. Thanks to @akirathedramaqueen for chatting with me about this and giving me some of these ideas.

Here's the deal. In corporate and large organizational structures- absolutely. Things are very hierarchical and your superiors hold a lot of power over you.

This is not necessarily the case in a small business with a simple organizational structure like I.M.P.. Blitz needs the skills that each of his employees bring just as much as they need the paycheck that he provides. They truly rise or fall together. And a lot of small businesses DO employ family members and significant others. Blitz already has his daughter working for him, for instance, and I don't see many people complaining about nepotism- because that would be ridiculous; it's a small business.

Let's do a thought experiment. What would happen if Stolas realized he wanted to break up with Blitz while working for I.MP.? What if Blitz tried to use that against Stolas in the workplace? Stolas would get another job- that's what. Even without his status, even if shunned by royalty, even if his powers get taken away, the man is infinitely employable. He's better educated than most in hell and has shown that he can make a killing negotiating contracts, at very least.

Yeah but people get so weird but then I thought about it if Eric Delano knew Micheal Shelley as a co-worker which means like micheal at about 20-22 and before Gerry was born or maybe when Gerry was a Toddler then that’s like a decade plus age gap lol.

oh my god i got more hate im? so valid ty anon
