Challenge #03933-J281: Dreams For Sale

I run two businesses, one open, one clandestine. My open business is running catering to the wealthy, deregger CEO's love me. My clandestine business is taking rescues from their worlds who want to escape, and making sure these rescues eat in a way the CEO's only WISH they could eat. I never charge the rescues for the food though, they deserve as much kindness as I can give them.

Both jobs pay, but only one of those jobs makes me truly happy. -- DaniAndShali

Who, when you get down to it, really wants to live forever? Some say they do, but even those with the capability to do it get bored of life after a small handful of centuries.

What do I do? I offer the next best thing. Sort of. It's a manipulation of the ability of dreams to condense time. The people within the experience can live a life of their dreams, and skip over all the fiddly bits that make life... real. They can experience centuries within a week, if they want to. While they're under, they get everything they want. Or everything they think they want.

I'm part of the Alliance. I wouldn't be a decent being if I didn't at least try to settle a few lessons into that sort of thing. And yes, I have received a few complaints about the reality of the experience.

B: "They're cheap. They keep chipping when they get used..."

C: "I USE them every day!" -- Anon Guest

Many things are not common knowledge. This is why so many "retirement restaurants" fail inside the first year. The idea has merit, and it seems easy,

Challenge #01982-E158: Sufficient Motivation

“You can still save the world.”

“I could,” grinned the human, “if I wanted to.” Behind them, the Capital burned.

“But you won’t.” My voice was more hoarse than I’d ever heard it, and I could taste the bitterness of my own blood running down my cheek.

The human’s “shrug” was silhouetted by the flames.

“Convince me.” -- Anon Guest

What motivated a human? Greed? No. This human was already profiting from the current course of events. Events that

Challenge #01968-E144: Bullish Behaviour

Can you please write more on Challenge #01911-E087: Uptick in Downsizing? It was probably one of the best pieces of fiction I have read in forever. I don't really know your policy regarding this kind of stuff (I may have just stumbled on this site a few hours ago and have been bingeing your writing) so I really hope I'm putting this in the right place... Either way, cheers and keep up the amazing work! -- ASingleSpeck

The Executive/Corporate Checklist

This information is pulled strictly out of my arse. By and large, it is not meant to be representative of the corporate atmosphere and is evidently extrapolated from what one statistical outlier[ie, not a White, Anglo-Saxon Male aged 18-35] can observe in her few encounters with the business world.
