This... will not end well.

I had no idea either, but I never could stand to watch much of Voyager.

This is an impression of Dora that I got from the earliest CoD-based strips, specifically when she was dragging her feet over hiring Penny... or anyone else (I seem to recall that Faye basically had to force her to take action). Coffee of Doom is her independence and a central part of her sense of self-identity. She isn't happy with anyone else being involved in any way. She certainly isn't happy with anyone being in a decision-making position there. She tolerated Faye and Raven but I really got the impression that there were days when she wasn't happy when she had to share the place with anyone else.

Basically, Coffee of Doom is Dora, to a certain extent; there are days and situations where no-one else is ever going to be unequivocally... welcome there, lest she may lose her complete control of this aspect of herself.

To be fair, neither Cosette nor Hanners spent at least three hours of their first day out of commission. For Emily to react that way on her first day does not bode well from a business sense.

But Dora isn't immediately letting Emily go, either. A lot of employers would, in this situation. Dora is giving Emily another day, training with someone who will have a completely different style of management than Hanners will. It should be interesting.

Another thought, Cosette and Hanners both made mistakes and such on their first day, but the mistakes were not huge. They also each showed that they at least had the social acumen to interact with people in a coffee shop. Emily does not seem to have that. Who knows, maybe Emily's fascinating new approach will bring in customers... More likely she will put customers off and other employees will constantly have to drop what they are doing to handle Emily.

We will see.

Method of Madness:
So Emily has a reaction that is completely out of her control and Dora gets pissed at her? If she drinks coffee again knowing this happens I could see getting frustrated but what the fuck, Dora?
