Also tentative hope for the idea that misnaming Tilly is going to be a running gag for this arc.

In the end, it might be the thing that drives her off.
ChipNoir:
Okay it's official: I like Tilly, because what she does has nothing to do with anyone's malice, and everything to do with the fact that she just absolutely loves the challenge of being the very best at her job.
I mean, I get it, it's a terrible thing for Hanners, but as this is fiction, and comedy is derived from pain, I'm kinda eager to see what chaos Tilly will introduce with this exceptionalism.
Is it cold in here?:

I'm curious, do you get a notification any time somebody posts for the first time? You're always right on the ball to welcome them.

I miss a lamentable number of new people. I hope they feel welcome anyway.

Tilly has made it crystal clear that her loyalty is to "what the company told me to do, even when it doesn't make sense and is clearly unethical", which absolutely rules out keeping her. The foremost qualification of a personal assistant is they have to be loyal to the person they're assisting, not third parties.
Hannelore can never, ever, ever trust Tilly. Ever.
--- End quote ---
Fine, Hannelore can't trust Tilly, but if she dismisses her she probably knows what her mother will do next. Regardless of Tilly's fate another PA would be sent so it's better to employ her, but keep her at arm's length.
And there seems to be a lot of snap judgment's of Tilly. She's definitely an abnormal person, but that doesn't mean she's a sociopath. Hannelore and plenty of others in this strip have some psychological problems of varying degree too. Perhaps Beatrice screens prospective assistants for just this kind of behavior.
And 93 minutes to shower! I hope her father gave her some kind of space age hygienic chamber because that's a lot of water to be going through.
ChipNoir:
At this point I don't think Tilly HAS any loyalty to Beaterice or the company. I think she literally just loves the job, and views Hannelore as the holy grail. I can just imagine Beatrice's HR department showing a list of Hanner's qualities, and everyone in the meeting just takes a giant step backwards, and then Tilly literally lunges at the paper and runs away with it cackling into the distance.
