Why didn't Faye just take the bottle into the bathroom? I mean, the stockroom, where anyone could wander in and catch you mid-tipple? Amateur hour.

This may be extremely evil, but possibility for tomorrow's comic:
Faye and Dora silently leave the storage room as Penny arrives for work. Faye heads for the door, looking sad. Dora says to Penny, "You're the new assistant manager." Penny puts two and two together and realizes Faye's been fired. She cheers in celebration. Faye, still within range of hearing, is horrified. :psyduck:
After all, it isn't the first time Penny's said something inappropriate around Faye.
TRVA123:
I'm also amazed that people aren't jumping on Marten for "ignoring Fayes desperate cries for help". He lives with her, he's seen how drunk she's been getting, and he is probably aware of how many bottles are lying around the house (empty or otherwise)
<sarcasm> Clearly Marten is a terrible friend! He should have dropped everything to help Faye, but instead he is going to work and planning dates with cute girls! How dare he! </sarcasm>
As for Tai, If the University paid any amount of attention to her, they would probably have laid down the law about drugs, but they clearly don't care as long as the library doesn't burn down and comes in under budget.
Also, in Jephs writing, you can clearly tell tone. Tai's drug use has always been played for laughs, while Fayes drinking has always been taken fairly seriously.
Xenologist:
Does anyone else think that Pintsize is going to play a role in this? He has previously said that he thinks his job with Marten is almost finished. He is a zany comic relief character, but we did get that little bit of exposition where he explains what his 'purpose' (it was to momo i think?)
Then here: http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2872
He is hanging out with Faye, but he seems to be taking it as seriously as he ever really takes anything of importance (he even seems to be trying to give her honest and useful advice). And his punchline was very subdued compared to his normal craziness.
I think we might see this:
-Faye goes home
-Prepares for something drastic
-Pintsize appears as a voice of reason *gasp*
Just a thought. I'm very likely completely wrong but it would be interesting because it would provide more development for a primarily comic relief character.
P.S. maybe even becoming Fayes andro-pc companion? Can companions switch humans?
EDIT: Found the original comic i was thinking of : http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2332

--- Quote from: Zebediah on 20 Jan 2015, 06:56 ---My personal take on this is that Faye put Dora in a position where all Dora's options were bad ones.
And let me emphasize: Faye put Dora in that position. It's not like Dora was looking for an excuse to fire Faye. This is a direct result of Faye's actions. Dora had to respond, and she had no good options, so criticizing her for not finding one is absurd. Dora did what she had to do. She's probably no happier about it than any of us are.

Yes! Exactly! Dora is in a lose-lose situation here, but it was Faye who put her in that position!
