Right, because firing someone for coming in plastered and loading up again, against regulations is the exact same thing as finding your AI companion shut off or erased and said person passed out in a pool of their own vomit.  :roll:

No, but being told that your best friend *intends* to drink themself into oblivion and desires to be drunk at all times is pretty similar to finding them passed out drunk and with vomit on the couch. That is, the thing Dora IGNORED.
Why do people keep acting like Faye's drinking at work came totally out of the blue?

It didn't really come out of the blue as Faye's been known to handle her problems with alcohol before. Faye wasn't letting on that the breakup was hitting her as hard as it was. You have to take into account that Martin's time has been spent out of her presence more often lately due to Claire, and therefore he likely hasn't realized just how often she's been drunk for the past few weeks. As for Dora, if she's only around her at work and hasn't been hanging out with her outside of it, same thing. I've known plenty of people who come into work hung over, and don't even let on. However, once Faye came in drunk and proceeded to drink in the store, shit got real. Faye pole-jumped over the line that Dora drew in the sand, and Dora acted accordingly. She's never been one to mollycoddle.

Add in how lackadaisical Faye is about everything, and it's no wonder that anyone didn't realize how bad things are for her. Constant sarcasm and levity tend to be a pretty good way to mask that you're hurting, especially if it's par for the course with that person.

It's time Marten sacks up and buys a new couch!

Is it cold in here?:

Nothing of the kind, which is why I had to ask the question. Just speculating based on my own sleep apnea problem. Please do not add that to your fact bank unless I turn out to have guessed right!

I think you have.  More research is required.
