Alexander Greingoth EraAll historical records pertaining to Ministry of Magic RPG under Minister for Magic, Alexander Greingoth [IC January 2076 - December 2081; OOC January 2012 - June 2013]
A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
The nervous feeling Misa Woods had ever since this morning increased the closer she got to the Conference Room. It was only her first day at her new job and there was already an emergency meeting!
Standing in front of the conference room, the Ex-Gryffindor looked down at what she was wearing and wondered if it wasn't looking weird or anything? What if the other employees inside that room wore casual clothes then she would be the only one with this dress like thingy!
Her nervousness started to add a few levels just thinking about it. Checking her hair and make-up with the help of a little mirror in her purse, she pushed the door open and entered the room.
Alright, no way back now. Her heels click-clacked loudly on the floor and she wished she had put on other shoes when she heard them. "G-good morning" she greeted the others inside of the room before she sat down on one of the chairs.
Would they notice she was new?
Misa nearly avoids a discarded portkey lying on the floor near the corner of the room. If you accidentally touch the old muggle combat boot, you might find yourself in the presence of another Department Head!

Meeting starting! If you're late just slip in, maybe she won't notice ;) hehe

Gabi tapped her heel impatiently as the employees slowly started to trickle in. Was it bad that it gave her a feeling of satisfaction to see the looks of fear on their faces? That meant they were really starting to show respect towards her and view her as the person of authority. YAY! It had only been a YEAR after all, about time they started looking at her like the boss lady she was.
"Hello employees, welcome to the first meeting of our new quarter," she said, looking over her notes. Not everyone was here yet, but enough were here to get started. She'd just have to sternly catch everyone up when they got here later...
"First off, I'd like everyone to please welcome our new employees," she said, forcing herself to smile as she began the meeting. "We have a number of new faces, but the ones I see HERE, prompt and on time, are Misa Woods, Apparitions Instructor - Haley Pianheart, who will be our new Brooms Supervisor, and Keegan Soles, who will be joining our Muggle Item Research team," she said, nodding and giving a soft smile to all the names as she introduced them.
"Now I hate to cut the 'get to know you' session of our meeting short but we have a bit of a situation that has crept up. It seems like the Floo Network is...well, hiccuping a bit," she explained. And that was putting it lightly. "You see, something has happened in the system that is causing it to malfunction and send people places they aren't meant to be going. Even if people state their location with perfect punctuation, they end up somewhere else. This not only causes a security breech in places like Hogwarts where the network is closely monitored, but they have also sent people to fireplaces that aren't even connected to the network. It's only a matter of time until a wizard steps into a muggle living room and then we have a REALLY big problem on our hands," she told all of them. She could just imagine the press release...
"The point of this meeting is to not only get our brains together and try and figure out WHY this is happening, but to also figure out a game plan on how we're going to get this straightened out as SOON as possible. I have some ideas," she said, waving her notes in the air, "But I want to hear YOUR ideas as well. Chip chop, we're on a very tight schedule!" she said, pausing and crossing her arms, indicating that the floor was now open for suggestions.

Keegan tapped his foot silently, the indication that he was thinking. He really wasn't sure of all the inner workings of the floo network, but he knew that the basic factor to transport witches and wizards was the powder... so maybe something was up with the powder. "Ms. Shultz, could it be a problem in the powder? I mean like a mix up when someone was mixing the ingredients..." He rubbed the back of his neck, he knew he probably sounded like an idiot and on his first day but it was really all he had. "could we not also put a ban on the floo network until we get the glitch fixed? I mean set up portkeys and have people do side along apparations." He exhaled slowly, he had not been anticipating this for his first day.

Haley had taken a seat when other members of the department began filtering in, offering each one a big smile. When it came to Gabriela introducing the new faces present, Haley raised a hand and waggled her fingers when her name was said, to point out that she was she, and she was Haley Pianheart.
Then they got down to serious business. Haley's attention turned to her ticking mind as the issue was presented to them. Issues with floo. People ending up places they shouldn't. Hm..well, this was..well it was bad. Anyone could see that. The thought of what could happen crossed Haley's mind, as her Department Head voiced the very thing. Someone flooing into a muggle's fireplace. That would be catastrophic for plenty. All round issues, even. She mulled it over for a little while, thinking about what could possibly be on Gabriela's notes, and what else anyone would offer.
Which so far was little, only Keegan had offered something, and it was the first thing to come to Haley's brain herself. Back to the drawing board, huh? "Are the places people are ending up remotely in relation to where they were intending to head?" She asked, purposely thinking aloud. This was hard to consider, even. "Perhaps..." she started, "Well perhaps...like Keegan said...there is an issue with the powder?"
She hadn't had her morning cereal...
"Maybe loose connections with fireplaces are causing wayward travels. Fireplaces that have been connected for a long time? The connections could be wearing out. Like a..fork in the road? That could explain the arrivals at fireplaces...not connected."
YEAH. Patrick was a little late... STUPID FLOO was the problem. Pat was ALWAYS on time, but instead of to the Ministry the Floo sent him to a shop in Diagon Alley. What kind of mess was that??
Trying to brush the floo powder and soot off of his shoulders he stepped into the conference room just in time to hear his Department Head...
Clearing his throat he raised his hand slightly, sending a puff of dust into the air as he did, he spoke, "Well I am here to tell you it's pretty well messed around. I think it's the network having been tampered with. It doesn't matter how long a fireplace has been connected with the network... a connection does not wear out. That much is clear given how long Hogwarts has been connected with no previous prolems."
curly haired prefect - "sometimes I get angry!" - 30/90 - *chicken emoji* - probably @ Disney - I speak dog
Gabi grinned. "Yes Keegan, I was definitely thinking we have to shut down the Floo Network ASAP. And as for the powder, I don't think that's the issue but it couldn't hurt to test some of the samples here in the Ministry," she said, adding it to her to do list.
Just then, a very RUDE employee interrupted her and she narrowed her eyes at him. However, her expression softened when he explained that it was because of the Floo that he was late. Well, whether that was a lie or not, she didn't care, he jumped right in so she guessed he could be forgiven for being a bit tardy.
"Both of you raise good points - I personally think it's a mixture of both," Gabi said. "Something is up with the connections, that much is true, since connections are popping up out of nowhere and sending people off to No Man's Land..." she muttered. Gosh she was getting a terrible migraine. "But the network is also not STOPPING anyone from going to the wrong place."
"Now, based off of what is happening, I have each division assigned to specific tasks so we can get this done ASAP. Does anyone have anything else to add or questions before I get to the assignments?" she asked, showing them her list on the parchment and pausing before reading it aloud.

Misa folded her legs over each other from under the table while she listened. Well, at least she got introduced to the others and when her name was said she nodded her head in a quick fashion , a small smile stretched on her face that looked more nervous than friendly.
The floo powder. As strange as it may sound for someone like Misa, but she had never used the floo powder before. Having worked in the muggle world for a few years it would be weird to pop up at the restaurant through the fire place even if the building itself had one. Yes, really weird. Because of no experience using the floo powder, she kept quiet. She really didn't want to embarrass herself with dumb answers.
Better be quiet and look smart, ocassionally nodding when something was said than talking and look dumb at your first working day. Oh how much she had grown~! If only her parents could see her now. A meeting in the Ministry HAH!
Nope, no questions, the new woman was simply curious what these new tasks were about.
You have bewitched me body and soul, And I love- I love- I love you
Keegan nodded at the department head, she had listened to what he had to say and had a few of the same ideas that Keegan did. So nothing further from him, he was ready for his assignment, and hopefully they could get this settled as soon as possible. They had to be particularly careful so that someone didn't end up with the muggles.
He laced his fingers in his lap, awaiting further instruction and looking around at the other department members.

Well someone hadn't risen on the right side of the bed this morning. Haley almost commented that they had been asked for their ideas, and she was doing just that - providing her ideas; but went against it and just smiled at the newcomer. He was just having a bad day, that was all. Everyone else was more than nice.
She shook her head when Gabriela spoke then, asking if anyone had any questions. She didn't. On with the work, please!
Please read the whole post, especially the ooc notes!
curly haired prefect - "sometimes I get angry!" - 30/90 - *chicken emoji* - probably @ Disney - I speak dog
Silence. Just blank stares. Well, Gabi could only assume that meant they didn't have any questions. And if they did well, she didn't really care, time to get going! They'd wasted enough time as it was, people could be Flooing into people's fireplaces without warning as they spoke!
"I've outlined an attack plan here that hopefully will solve the problem as quickly as possible. Each of you has a specific role, and once you've got the sheet with the assignments on it, you have my permission to get together with your fellow employees and get to work. Unless you have questions," she said. Although she already GAVE them plenty of time to ask questions so they really shouldn't have any, and if they did, they were wasting time AND HER time as well.
She took the parchment sheets in her hands and handed them out to the employees, creating piles at various intervals of the long table for the employees to grab from.
On the parchment, each division had it's own heading with it's responsibilities listed beneath it:
Quote:
Liaison for Level 6:
-Send a memo to each department head informing them of the Floo Network issues and warning them that the network will be down for maintenance for a short period of time. Then assist Apparition Division.
Apparition Division:
-Create a pamphlet to hand out to employees in the Atrium on side-along apparition with tips on how to avoid splinching, ending up in the wrong place, etc (OOC: Also RP handing them out in the various corridors of the Atrium and around the Ministry!)
-Go to Diagon Alley and spread the word about the Floo Network maintenance and hand out pamphlets.
Floo Network Authority:
-Close the Floo Network portals in the Atrium IMMEDIATELY. Post a sign/block off the fireplaces/etc to prevent people from traveling.
-Check out the connections and do any necessary repairs to fix the connections and prevent unconnected fireplaces from receiving travelers (OOC: Get creative with this! Make up spells to "check" the connections, find the source of the problem, etc!)
-Once repairs are finished, report to Gabi in her office!
Broom Division:
-Inspect the Floo Powder in the atrium for any irregularities (OOC: Again, get creative with this!) Fix any problems with assistance of Floo Network Team if needed.
-Once Floo Network is fixed, create a small statement about the outage and what was done to fix it to the Daily Prophet offices (OOC: Please RP this!)
Portkey Division:
-Construct and hand out Portkeys in the Atrium for employees to use as an alternative to Floo travel.
-Come up with new ideas for new Portkeys - we will need to cycle in new models after the increase in usage these new few days will bring.
-Bring the designs to Gabi, either written or drawn out!
"Alright, if you guys don't have any questions, get to work!" she said. "I'll be in my office looking over the recent Floo Network travel records and details for any suspicious patterns. Please, if anything major happens, come report it to me!" she informed them all as she gathered up her things.
*******
OOC: OK GUYS! So I'm going out of town until July 14th, and I'll only have my iPad on me so don't expect me to be around. You guys have a ton of freedom with this RP - YOU get to make up what is actually going on, what needs to be fixed, how to go about it, etc. The only RULES are obviously, follow SS rules and please don't RP anyone losing any limbs or getting seriously injured. The other DH's have been instructed to keep an eye on you guys and of course, I'll be watching from my iPad and if I have to nudge someone, I will! PM me if you have any questions, I'll still be around until Thursday. ANDDDDD BREAK!

Without any certainty about the result and the efficiency of this action, Gwinny Borgin sent an owl to the Magical Transportation Department:
Quote:
To:
Miss Gabriela Schultz,
Head of department and all the personnel concerned.
My name is Gwinny Borgin. Recently I was hired by this Department, which for me is a great honor.
Unfortunatelly I received an urgent message from my former job in USA, the Salem’s Witches Institute, from Lofrida Gullibler - the Headmistress, asking me to help them as some students and the teacher - who was expected to be my successor - vanished after entering into a Vanishing Cabinet and don't come back until now and it has been seven days since then. The Vanishing Cabinet in question - which was bought from my relatives years ago - was supposed to be out of work as it didn't work well in recent decades.
So, I'm going to Salem early this morning and I'll be back as soon as possible in the hope that I still have a job here.
Best regards,
Gwinny Borgin.
OOC:Hey, guys! I'm Ivana. I was eager to RP with you, but with the end of June came the winter holidays (here in Brazil) and my kids are in home, nanny is on vacation and my life is pretty hectic at the last days... When I could sit in front of my computer it was already too much late for me could think about what to write for playing with you, then I tried several times begin anything but I was overcome by sleep... So, after fall asleep sitting on an uncomfortable chair I came to realize how much it's impossible to me RP until August. I hope I don't be fired.
Kyleigh had been sitting there quietly listening to what everyone was saying - and then there was fluttering. And what was an owl doing in the office? She stared at it for a moment, and blinked. That was a strange sight - didn't people know to use memos or patronus? Far easier and they didn't have a tendency to say poop on a desk.
What on earth...sure she had known that the Floo system was down - she'd tried to use it and ended up quite luckily in the floo of her next door (and luckily witch) neighbor's house. She was just confused that she had to invesitgate the Floo powder irregularities. Brilliant. She'd much rather lick someone's dung covered boots then stare at a mass of green powder.
BUT she'd do it. For her job.
OOC: Guy's my computer has died and is in the shop right now not fun at all...but I don't know if/when I'll get it back. I'll be RPing a little more sporadically here and everywhere because of this.

Patrick nodded at the woman, a small smirk on his lips. She was a piece of work from what he could tell already. MHM. He'd do his best to simply keep his distance from her. Maybe she was going through menopause or something with the smiling and the snappish tone alternations and all that.
Sheesh.
Anywhoooooo....
Tasks they had them. Time to boogie.
Turning on his heel he pulled his wand from his holster and siphoned off the rest of the ashes on his suit before going to make his way to the atrium.

Another day. Another meeting. Jayden, finishing a bagel, headed in to the conference room to await the arrival of his boss. Hopefully there wasn't another crisis. Merlin knew what would happen if any more magical transportation means failed like the floo network had.
He took a seat and rubbed his hands together. Now. To wait for everyone else.

Kyleigh was excited for this meeting. For some reason, even though meetings in general was never something she looked forward to. All the yes ma'am, sorry ma'am, no ma'am...and the apologizing when your coffee cup falls onto the lap of a poor unsuspecting coworker. It was one time, but you never really live that down.
Coffee cup in one hand, and her new beautiful wand in the other...she could just eat it. But she wouldn't. This wand, was not for eating.
That was out of her system for good. Seriously.
Taking a seat she sent Jayden a quick smile.

Like... nevermind the paint splatters on Patrick's suit. NOTHING TO SEE HERE.
It was an unfortunate incident that led to the destruction of said suit, but he hadn't the time to go about fixing things just yet. AND LOOK there were people in the conference room already. Excellent.
Sliding into a seat WAY away from the other two he sat and stared for a moment. STARE.
He liked to stare until people felt uncomfortable. MHM..

Gabriela Schultz entered the conference room, to-go coffee in hand, and smiled at her employees. "Good morning!" she said cheerfully. It was obvious that she was in a much better mood than she'd been in recently, due to all the nonsense with the Floo Network. BUT it was fixed. The Floo was fixed. Now she could go back to enjoying her life again!
"I'll give people just another minute or two to arrive," she explained. As she spoke, she turned to the whiteboard and pulled out her wand, enchanting a marker to scribble across the whiteboard as it created a title for their meeting:
LEVEL RESTRUCTURING

She was not late! She refused to be late!
With the paper cup of coffee that Misa had bought on the streets in her left hand and a note book in the other, the woman rushed to her level to get to attend the meeting. The coffee was slushing over the cup and on to the floor while she speed walked as fast as she could on her high heels. Why did she even wear them today?!
Opening the door to the level six conference room, she noted that a few were already there and also her department head. "Am i late? sorry if i'm late!" she quickly found a seat and placed the note book on the table. The paper coffee cup was now half empty and she hadn't even tasted it yet. MWEH!

He's a-zooming in yup.
Vickers received the memo on the meeting. And even if he had classes somewhere in the bottom of the Lazarus Pit tomorrow, he wanted to be here. Because this was important stuff. Stuff regarding his future career options usually are.
"Good Day Ms Schultz, Everybody." he murmured as he nodded his head to those assembled and made his way towards a vacant seat.
Yeah thats what crazy is, when its broken you say theres nothing to fix++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++And you pray that everything will be okay, while you're making all the same mistakes

Gabi smiled and greeted all her employees as they entered, and once she had a sizeable amount of her staff in the room, she clapped her hands together. "Alright, let's get started, shall we? Anyone who comes in late will just need to catch up," she said matter of factly. After all, it wasn't like the Floo Network meeting, where she'd had a LOT of important info that HAD to be shared.
Not that redesigning the level was not important.
"So, I plan on keeping this meeting brief, and basically I want YOUR input on what our level is going to look like in the future," she began to explain. "Basically, I've noticed a few...rooms, and areas of the level, that simply aren't being used. For example, the Written Examination test center has been completely abandoned by our last head of Written Exams, who left before I took over, and now that we've combined Apparition testers into both practical and written categories, it's a bit of a mess in there," she said. "So, I ask you this - what areas of the level need to be refurbished? What should we DO with these areas? Any ideas?" she asked.
Yes, she knew she was being kind of vague. She wanted them to think outside the box!

Hmm, so was there a new work area he can suggest? Piercing blues looks around to his co-workers, then up along the walls as his memory scanned the rooms located on this floor. Slowly he raises a hand. Old habits whoops “Uhm, Ms Schultz, do you think we should have some kind of lab or work area where the more unwieldy items can be observed or worked on? You know like runaway magic carpets, flying bathtubs, or fireplaces to test for faulty floo powder? I mean these aren’t exactly something we can bring to our desks”
Yeah thats what crazy is, when its broken you say theres nothing to fix++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++And you pray that everything will be okay, while you're making all the same mistakes
Partick had begun to chew on the ink pen he had grabbed from his pocket... to pretend he was taking notes. But he wasn't since he was CHEWING the pen. Yeah.
And that kid suggested things. He was a kid, yeah? He looked like it. Although he could just be... a really young looking old person. But then he spoke... and he was a kid. Yep.
"Well all of those things could be incorporated into the work areas, no? Correct me if I am wrong, Gab-- Ms. Schultz. Anyway can we do something FUN with the extra room? Like... put indoor trampolines in it?" COULD THEY? Because he was SURE that burning those endorphins got the old noggin working better. RIGHT? Right.
"But to be a bit more practical what about..." And he trailed off, pen back in his mouth.

"Hmm, that's a good idea..." Gabi said, muttering to herself as she waved her wand and Vickers' idea was scribbled onto the whiteboard.
"Now keep in mind, everything needs to be approved by the Minister before I can implement it, so I'm not sure which ideas we'll actually be able to USE. But I still want those suggestions!" she added with an encouraging nod.

He lost his train of thought.
Whatever.
"That um...wasn't really what I was going for," Gabi said with a small chuckle. Normally she wouldn't be so easy going with this silly behavior, but since the Floo Powder incident, when her nerves had been shot to hell, she'd been a lot more laid back. This job was only stressful if she made it that way, right?
"Perhaps that'd be something we could do on a more...Ministry-wide scale?" she suggested sweetly. After all, they did come up with some PRETTY ODD things to put in that Atrium. "Perhaps you could take it up with Maintenance?" she suggested.

Oh. She was here. Of course, Eliza was here.
She just wasn't talking much. She was hungry, that's why. And when she was hungry, she mumbled about nonsensical stuffs. So better just to keep quiet than to say absurd things, right? But there was another person in the room who was saying ridiculous stuff. PSSSHH. Trampolines? No.
She had a better idea. "Oh! Oh! Maybe we can make it into a Tea Room?" Tea Room? ...Seriously, Eliza? She'd had to mentally smack herself for that. But too late, she'd said it already. "Um, no...maybe not. Mr. Vanderbilt has some great ideas, maa'm." See?! She was hungry....and thirsty.TEA!! ... Okay, she just was going to shut up now before she blurted out more ridiculous pieces of nonsense.

Gabi chuckled. "Don't second guess yourself!" she told the young girl. If she second guessed herself all the time she'd never make it anywhere because people would think she was meek. Gabi never got to her spot in life by going back on her ideas! She waved her wand and added it to the board.
"Any other suggestions before I move on?" she asked, raising an eyebrow at the room. They were all so quiet today. Maybe they needed coffee.
