[Steven shrugs.] Sure. Why not? [He rips the page out of the little notebook (with the rings at the top and not at the sides) and hands it out to Doppio.]

And yeah, more or less. Though like I said, we can rise in rank. Just not to the highest levels. But then again, you rarely see more than one admin per city--even here in Goldenrod there's only two--so it's fairly unlikely even for locals to rise higher than we can.

[epitaffio]

Thanks. [Now he can be sure he'll report this correctly to the Boss! How nice.]

Huh... So maybe it's just that none of the people they've kidnapped have managed to climb that high YET? But I guess it's more likely that they just don't want outsiders taking the higher spots...

[Not that such a thing would stop the Don of Passione.]

[fingersandteeth]

I mean, if Handsome Jack--he's our Alpha and very good at what he does--still hasn't made Admin after five years, it's pretty likely that they're purposely keeping us outsiders from the higher spots.

[He shrugs.]

It's worth it to rank up, though. While most of us live outside the base as soon as we can afford it, the free accommodations for those who don't want to do that does scale with rank. Grunts like you get old-fashioned dormitory rooms that sleep six, Privates only have to share with two others, Betas get our own rooms, and Alphas have their own little suites. Plus your stipend goes as well. And Betas and Alphas can take the good positions on the job board like security and recruit training and managing our gambling establishments.

[Oh, this is still a lot. He should probably be taking notes, but it's a bit late to ask for a pen, so he's just doing his best to absorb everything now.

He'll probably remember the gambling, at least. Pretty lucrative business, if this place is anything like Naples.

... Funny that this guy would lump that in with training.]

Is recruit training a high-paying job? It must be a pretty big deal, then.

[fingersandteeth]

I'd assume? It's not what I do. I'm with the Radio Tower--local radio is one of our front businesses--and I'll be putting in for on-air host the next time a position opens up.

But I suspect that it is, yes. They're the ones that put us through criminal boot camp our first week.

[epitaffio]

[Radio, huh? Interesting choice.]

Right... Uh... What does that training consist of, again?

[Doppio Knows crime, even if some of the messier, nastier aspects of it took some getting used to. He's not sure how freely he should let other people know that yet - did the Boss just not have time to bring it up? Is he supposed to decide on his own?? - but, well, he's experienced. He just... might as well make sure nothing's going to catch him off-guard.]
