Detroit's Business Development Office Started by: Sneaker on Mar 20, '14 01:55

It didn't take any time at all since Sneaker made the move from the Chicagoland Theme Park she had been hiding out at to Detroit before Billy approached her about the state of the businesses in the city.

Sneaker, something has to be done. The business district is in shambles. We need you to step up and take control of it. Set up an office. From here on out I want you to review and authorize all new businesses in Detroit, Billy said to her.

Sneaker nodded. She had noticed the businesses when she arrived. Other than a handful of decent ones, the majority of them were run down, dilapidated establishments.

Breath life back into the Business District Sneaker! Do your thing! Billy went on.

Sneaker took out her lucky coin and flipped it. She watched as it bounced off the ground. Heads.

Alright Billy, for you and Detroit I will do this, she told him. I know where I can open my office. Keep in mind, I have high standards. she stated to Billy.

Billy knew this before he came to her. He picked her for just this reason. Sneaker excused herself and headed to the streets of Detroit. She had seen a centrally located building with a purple awning for sale on Jensen Street. It was the perfect location. She went to the location and looked at the sign.

For Sale

Prime Retail Space

Call Downtown 649

Sneaker went to the local grocer and made the call. Thirty minutes later the Realtor showed up. Sneaker negotiated the purchase of the place. She signed the papers and told the man.

See Billy. He will pay for this.

With the keys in hand, Sneaker called in a crew to remodel the place. She ordered a Mahogany desk and a captain's chair for herself. She spared no expense. She wanted it to make an impression. She kept the purple awning. The sign was the last thing installed.

A bulletin was placed at the entrance

Sneaker stepped outside and shouted into the streets

There's a new Building Authority round these parts! ME! No more shoddy businesses in Detroit! Get your blueprints in before building! Don't send me crap either. I ain't got time for that!

Sneaker shut the door, sat behind her desk, spun around in her chair and firmly planted her shoes on the desk.

Report Post Tip

Keeps an eye on the business district as she draws up the plans for a business.

Report Post Tip

Sneaker looks out the front door and sees a business she didn't know about. She was going to have to do something about that. Yep, she was. This place was her responsibility.

Report Post Tip
Ras chuckles softly as he approaches Sneaker.

As I'm sure you'll be aware when you check with your clerk, I dropped you a mail this morning clearing this issue up.
Report Post Tip

Sneaker looks at the man who has been lying to her GF and circumventing the city rules. She picks up the phone and calls her henchmen to toss him out.

Get this guy out of here and make sure he doesn't come back! she told them.

She looked at this guy as he was led out Due to your failure to comply with the city rules, attempting to circumvent this department and not contacting this department before building your business for approval your businesses are not welcome in Detroit. We will be closing the one you built.

Evermore, it seemed harder and harder to weed out the roughnecks and the rabble rousers from getting into the restaurants, clubs, speakeasies and miscellaneous shops. Even with the increase in personal security, occasionally the lone troublemaker would make it through and cause a scene. It was rare, but it did happen, and it was happening now.

Absolutely fed up with RasAlGhul's behavior, Sneaker leaned over and whispered into the ear of a very large, brutish looking man standing near the door. He nodded, and made his way over to RasAlGhul and issued an ultimatum.

We've had enough of your antics around here pal. That's it. Allow me to escort you to the door.

So with a firm hand to the neck, the hulking bodyguard lifted RasAlGhul to the tips of a pair of very scuffed and roughed up shoes, and very forcefully pushed RasAlGhul out of the joint.
Report Post Tip

Alabama wanders in, looking to discuss a business proposal with someone only to find a vacant office.

"Oh well. I guess the previous occupant bit off more than she could chew."

Alabama wondered if the next business development officer would choose to work with the proprietors instead of against them.
