What about the new question on the robots.
Boss, your CTO has suggested taking out a loan at 1% interest a day and automating one of our buildings. We need 36 robots at $900 each. It will save us 3% on our salaray cost of $10,000 per day. We just can't figure out how many days until we start to see a profit.
Less than 60 days.
More than 60 days.
That is a terrible idea!

About that, I decided to have an accounting firm re-calculate it. And it's not as clever idea as it sounded first. The capital cost is higher than saving - we would have never get the investment back. The accounting firm charged us $2,000.

You are awesome to have spotted that. Yes, the automation at that cost would have been a very bad decision.
(Nothing happens)

I would like to correct the last quest (Robot quest) if you choose the last option we have the message :"You are awesome to have spotted that. Yes, the automation at that cost would have been a very bad decision."
Best regards

so I asked this question in Help chat, and was redirected to the PA quests thread in the forum. But still couldn't find what I was looking for. Here's the question, in question...
"What does it mean when my personal assistant says, "Boss, Nikolay Trump decided to retire soon and will leave our company in 3 days." Who is Nikolay Trump and why do I need to know about their retirement?"
For context, I don't have any executives nor have any history of hiring executives, so there's no reason for the PA to notify me that an executive is retiring when I don't have any executives to begin with. But I've received 3 notices for 3 different names that were retiring.
Boss, Vera Kitajima decided to retire soon and will leave our company in 3 days.
Boss, Bill Scherbo decided to retire soon and will leave our company in 3 days.
and one day later.
Boss, Nikolay Trump decided to retire soon and will leave our company in 3 days.
I checked my executive page, and voila
Bill Scherbo
Retiring in one day
Vera Kitajima
Retiring in one day
Nikolay Trump
Retiring in 2 days
But I don't have any record of hiring these people nor do I have them on my team. I have no records of paying them any salaries either. One quick look at my profile shows no executives either.
To be honest, it's not a big deal to fuss over but I was just confused as to why the Personal Assistant would even report something as bizarre as this, is this bug-report worthy?

Boss, sales department sees opportunities in selling at the millionaires fair this week. What do you think? Good idea, send them with 5 watches and 5 necklaces. Great idea! send them with 10 watches and 10 necklaces Sorry, I don't think that is a good idea. Since I was looking for the answer : 10 watches and 10 necklaces gives you 40k |

Here is a issing question:
Boss, one of your top managers complains that his salary is insufficient to cover his family's basic needs, but we already compensate him very well. It's the one who smokes all the time: $5 pack a day. He also coughs a lot... He's here to chat with you.
Answers are:
Smoking is bad for your health. You should give up smoking. This will also save you money.
You can save $1,825 each year. Would that help?
Would you like to have an equivalent of $36,500 in the bank generating you 5% interest?
I choosed:
Would you like to have an equivalent of $36,500 in the bank generating you 5% interest?
But the answer is a bit strange:
He was very interested. He was also disappointed at first, when you said he has to give up smoking, but he considered it for the next few days, and gave up smoking. He's very grateful for your advice and gave you a new quadcopter as a gift.

A friend of yours just called. He offers you to set up the pricing model for his cinema for one evening in exchange for 50% of profits. He has 1,000 seats, which price should he set up:
$1 each seat to make sure the cinema is full.
$4 even if it means we only sell out 60% of the capacity.
$2 for over 60s year-old and $4 for everyone else.
Best known answer: $2 for over 60s year-old and $4 for everyone else.
Personal Assistant response: A local newspaper noticed the discount and made a free advertisement. The cinema was full. 50% of people paid $4, everyone else was over 60 and paid 2$. Your total earnings are: $3,000, you get $1,500.

Didn't see this here but I might have missed it.
Boss, SimConstruction called to ask for a favor. They urgently need 2,000 bricks to avoid breaking a contract and paying a penalty. They will pay, of course.
Sure, I can help out, send the bricks.
Boss, SimConstruction is grateful for our help. In appreciation, they will send construction workers to help us during our next renovation. Our next upgrade will be completed in half the time!
Other option is most likely no penalty but I didn't pick it.

One of your workers with a salary of $300/hour got into an accident and isn't able to work for the next 6 hours. We won't be able to find a replacement that soon, so we'll just have to wait for him to get back. But there is a drug that can make them recover in just 1 hour, it would cost you $900. The worker can't afford it and asks for your help.

That's not my problem, we are not a hospital. Let him deal with it himself.
Your worker wasn't able to work for 6 hours, so you lost $1,800.
In other option you have to pay 900 + 300 salary total 1200
