Well, if Dora ever needs to brun down the coffee shop in a hurry.
(Brun was a typo that I decided to keep... :claireface: )
neurocase:
The conclusion that Dora and Emily are now doing more or less precisely what Faye did (that Dora fired her for) must be too simple. There has to be some formula I'm missing as to why this shouldn't be interpreted as, oh, I don't know, massively hypocritical? Right? Guys?
Near Lurker:
They're doing it overtly, with permission, as Faye had done before without incident. The Emergency Bourbon's there for a reason, after all. Faye was fired for sneaking in whiskey after being told no.
Tova:
It's days like these when being a Patreon honestly is a bit of a mixed blessing.

I don't think you're missing anything, no.

Bear in mind that Faye had come into work hungover, she lied to Dora about her drinking, she was caught by Dora actually sneaking a drink on the job. Its that Faye was storing alcohol around the business, which would be incredibly dangerous were Coffee of Doom to be inspected. Faye and her drinking were a liability to Dora's livelihood and to customer safety. All that pretty early in the morning.
I mean, the fact that emergency bourbon even exists in the Coffee of Doom doesn't make it hypocritical for them to drink at work, they've all done it at one stage or another, but never to the extent that Faye got to when she was fired. Faye is a seasoned drinker, she's an alcoholic and one bottle isn't going to have the same effect on her that half a bottle has had on Emily and Dora.
This is a callback to some of the wackier hijinks that occurred at CoD before Dorapocalypse and Fayemageddon.
