4th Act
Who: Everyone involved in Joker's circus!
Where: Goldenrod
When: Throughout March 16th
Summary: Time for some good ol' fashion practice! And perhaps the first time plenty of folks will meet their coworkers.
Rating: PG at worst
Log:
A lot of work has been put into this day. Warning's been given, transportation has been worked out, and a space has been found! All of those who've been roped into Joker's circus one way or another have been sent directions and an address to a very large warehouse in the city. Inside?
A circus performer's paradise.
There's some acrobatic things way high up and a tightrope all prepared. (A safety net should assuage anyone's worries, hopefully.) Plenty of weights in all sizes are in one corner. Another has some hoops and balls. Basically if you can imagine it, then it's probably around here somewhere and there's enough space for all sorts of people and Pokemon to practice together.
Since the ringleader of the circus is also fairly considerate, there's a table set up close to the entrance people will be going through. It's a pretty long one, every inch of it covered in various fruits, snacks, and sandwiches. There are some large tubs filled with ice cold water bottles too.
So get to practicing, everyone! And don't be afraid to go check out your coworkers or their Pokemon, either. Your ringleader can't be the only one getting in everyone's business.

I'm gonna see which folks are interested in that and let ya know how many it looks like we'll need- although I'm definitely hopin' ta get ta know more folks throughout alla Johto.
That actually reminds me a somethin'. I've been workin' with a few a the gym leaders, but my goal is ta have the whole league involved in it one way or another. I've settled down for now after battlin' Whitney, but after our first big show, I'll probably head off again ta work on Morty and maybe the gym after that. A bit more money ain't ever hurt a business, yeah?

Usually not, but it can. Don't over-pay the talent. Pay well, but don't over pay or you're likely to start having people develop more ego than they ought to and that can hurt the business big-time if they start getting into ego wars about who deserves to be paid most, who deserves extra bonuses, etc.
Face it, there's only room for one given giant ego in any business, and I've got that one all tied up. [It's...about 1/64th of a joke? He's working on his ego problems, but wryly aware that it's still big enough to be called a full-on egosphere with it's own weather systems and everything.] Not being part of the talent, though, I at least don't have any reasons to demand more money for being awesome.
[He will earn any raises he gets by being just that good, thanks.]
no subject
[As controlled as things can be in the hectic space of a circus, anyway.]
Most a the folks I've hired don't seem like they'll bring too much trouble, but I suppose we'll just have ta wait and see, won't we?

[Joker settles down himself, leaning back in a relaxed manner.]
Should we start with pay, then?
no subject
Start where you feel most comfortable. [Sho says, taking up enough space that he has got to be a teenager. Nobody lounges like a teenager.]
no subject
Well, I was thinkin' a payin' 'em for everytime they come in for practice, but for the big shows any a them are in, they'd get a bigger paycheck for those. Wanted ta check in with ya on that idea first, 'tho.
no subject
Makes sense. Probably a base rehearsal pay, and a base performance pay? Going to cap the number of rehearsal hours they can log? [He makes a note] Gotta figure out what overtime laws are here.
