All of our workers work in sales, and work quite closely with Hades. HadestownCorp is a big company, but these are the key players.

Atropos, Lachesis, and Clotho run HR. They’re there, around every corner, listening and watching, making sure that work is getting done and getting done well. They have been with the company the longest. 

Tim and Ahmad share a small office. They are the supervisors and are in charge of coordinating the big company-wide team meetings they have every Wednesday. Kimberly, Malcom, John and Afra all work on the floor in cubicles. They’re all in sales, but are in charge of different sectors and areas. They sometimes come to the Dust Bowl after work.

Jessie was hired after Eurydice was promoted. She’s the new secretary and took on all of Eurydice’s old roles. She makes Eurydice’s life so much easier, and Jessie usually comes to see Eurydice once a day to ask questions. She’s still settling into the position. She sneaks Orpheus into the office sometimes so he can leave lunch/snacks/little notes on Eurydice’s desk. 

Khalia is a part time office aid. She brings lunches, delivers mail, does the scheduling, along with other gigs. When Persephone was in the office one day, she met Khaila and loved her so much she offered her part time work at the Six Seeds. So Khaila is Seph’s way into all the office gossip.

Speaking of office gossip. Afra and John have a bit of an office romance – it’s so clear to everyone else that Afra’s into John and that John is into Afra, but neither of them are willing to be the first to say anything. At one of the office holiday parties (they have two – one every summer and one every winter), John finally plucks up the gumption to ask Afra to dance, and she says yes. Everyone on their team knows in less than two minutes that it’s happened it’s finally happened because Khaila has texted their group chat. They’re dancing, kind of holding each other at arms length for a moment, before Afra pulls him just a little closer and rests holds him closer. As they dance, Persephone, who is dancing across the room with Hades, gives her a big thumbs up.

she does!!!!

she, khaila, and jessie often get drinks at the dust bowl after work, which usually leads to Orpheus driving them back to Eurydice’s apartment where they all crash for the night. Eurydice never had a lot of friends, specifically girl friends growing up, so she’s not super used to having these relationships, but she loves them.
