Silver The Hedgehog and Espio The Chameleon were taking their break, sitting at the green table that Shadow The Hedgehog and Knuckles The Echidna normally would sit at as Silver munched on a pepperoni pizza he had just finished making. Espio, as usual, was reading the newspaper, hearing all the buzz downstairs, with Charmy Bee, Toadette, and Sonic The Hedgehog serving the hungry customers who were pouring in by the minute.
"You know, it has never occurred to me, but has Vector ever been fired?" Silver asked as he gulped down his third slice of pizza.
Espio flipped through the pages as he kept on reading. "Not really, no. Every temporary job we had when we were looking for an extra hobby to help pay the bills, whenever thing weren't going as well as they seemed, Vector declared that we quit."
"Isn't quitting the same thing as being fired?" Silver gawked as he had his jaw dropped in disbelief.
Espio scoffed as he glanced at Silver. "Silver, honestly... you of all people should know that Vector loves to keep his image. He rather loses all his teeth than to admit to being fired." He then went back to going through the pages.
Silver rubbed the back of his head with his right hand sheepishly as he blinked, rolling his left hand around. "Have you ever been fired, Espio?"
Espio sighed as he got up, going back to work as he was getting annoyed by Silver, who meekly shrugged in response.
"Hey Knux, have you ever been fired from anything?" Charmy asked Knuckles as they were having a chilli topped pizza together.
Knuckles munched on a slice of the chilli pizza as he gulped down, nodding his head. "I have, actually. I was hired as a body guard for that Jewelry Store eleven years ago."
"What happened?" Charmy asked as he held his hands together.
Knuckles sighed as he watched Rouge The Bat walk by, who in response blew a kiss to the red echidna. Knuckles growled as he watched Rouge head to the counter, turning his focus to Charmy. "Well, let's just sat it involved Rouge and her bat tits..."
"Bat tits?" Charmy stated in confusion, having the innocence of youth.
Space Ghost entered Vector The Crocodile's office as he placed his hands behind his back, tilting his head up to see the green crocodile. "Hey Vex... have you ever been fired?"
Vector, who had a model of Station Square set up on his wooden desk, with all the models being green dollar bills and silver coins, squinting his eyes at Space Ghost as he folded his lanky arms together. "What the hell is that suppose to mean?"
Space Ghost shrugged as he approached Vector. "Oh, I don't know. The guys are bringing it up, and I figured I ask ya..."
"...No." Vector commented as he focused on his Station Square model. "I have quit, but not once have I been fired."
Space Ghost sighed as he lowered his head. "I've been fired... because those jokers at Adult Swim and Cartoon Network won't even acknowledge me." He then went to his own desk to sulk in depression.
