When your boss hands you a non-compete contract to sign that would prevent you from working for anyone else in the industry for 18 months after the job ends, and it takes five minutes on Google to find the exact state law that prohibits that...

Sasha Archivist au
Tossing my hat into the ring to answer 'What would have happened if Sasha had been made archivist instead of Jon'.
Personally, I believe that Sasha as head archivist would not start the apocalypse, but everything would still be sad and terrible. Let me explain:
First and foremost: addressing Sasha James' character. Since she died in season one (crying), we actually have fairly little to go off of. In that one season, we can only say a few things about Sasha. BUT mag 161 then goes ahead and turns everything we know about her on its head. She tells Tim that there's really no such thing as a real you, and we get the sense that maybe we didn't really know Sasha at all.
So, what does this tell us about Sasha as an archivist?
I think the most important piece of information regarding Sasha James, as a character, is her connection to Gertrude Robinson in Mag 161 and 162, and I believe it tells us all we need to know about an archivist Sasha.
Significantly, Gertrude named Sasha as her successor. This little piece of info drives me up the wall bc why did Gertrude choose Sasha??? Gertrude purposefully left the archives a mess so I doubt it was because she thought Sasha was the best academic.
Gertrude dedicated her entire life to preventing the apocalypse, sacrificing literally everything to save the world. Gertrude Robinson, needed to select the right successor, someone who would carry on her work. And Gertrude Robinson, who was an avatar of the watcher, of knowledge, must have had a good reason to choose her successor.
Because it is so important that Gertrude's tape in mag 161 is intended for Sasha. Gertrude tells her that she is entering "A place that will often demand a high price from you. Pay it without hesitation, because one way or another, the world is now on your shoulders." Gertrude has seemingly handpicked someone who knows exactly what it means when she tells them "Do what you have to do."
Because whilst we, the audience, don't know a whole lot about Sasha, Gertrude did. And what I think Gertrude Knew, is that Sasha would be able to do the same thing as her. Gertrude Knew that Sasha James would be just as ruthless and pragmatic in dealing with the apocalypse. That Sasha would make any and all necessary sacrifices.
Sasha immediately saw through Gertrude's mask of being a frail old woman. Who knew that Gertrude purposefully left the archives a state, wouldn't do what Jon did and try to reorganise them. Sasha having experienced artifact storage, would wait and trust in Gertrude's system.
Sasha, who invaded her co-workers' privacy by hacking into their computers, would have little problem joining up with the eye. Gertrude Robinson who again, knows an awful lot, put a lot of trust in the hope that Sasha would be just as cutthroat as her.
Archivist Sasha would still be a tragedy, and would still mirror Jon's descent into monster hood, but it would be a different kind. It would be Sasha's descent into ruthlessness, her making the kind of choices that Gertrude made, the kind that would have the story end with just as many dead archival assistants as in canon. But, no Armageddon. Because if you thought Gertrude feeding Michael Shelley to the distortion was bad, imagine Sasha leading Tim with a detonator to the Circus of the Other.
TLDR: Gertrude choosing Sasha is incredibly significant and implies that Sasha actually was or could have been just as ruthless as Gertrude as head archivist and thus would have prevented the apocalypse by sacrificing all of her assistants.

and yknow what. saying this as someone who has been in a work environment where i was ACTUALLY the only one who knew what i was doing and i was the only one capable of keeping things running, including the person who was technically in charge of me*:
even if izzy was right. even if izzy was the only one who kept ed's ship actually running. hell, even if lucius, pete, and wee john were actually slacking off when there was important things to be done!!
you do not effectively lead a team by yelling at them and telling everyone how useless they are and how much they suck. you don't get people to get off their ass and do their fucking job by screaming "BITCH" in their face. you don't!! get things done!!! if you just stand there and tell other people what to do!!!!!
*which is v much not the case w izzy and ed but i have seen this written into some fics, for some fucking reason
#sorry i know i said i wasnt arguing that izzy is bad at his job lol#i kept it off that other post bc that's not about how good he is at his job. but man...#having been in the “im surrounded by idiots” only-competent-employee situation everyone describes izzy in#i gotta say that if izzy's job is primarily managing people. he fucking SUCKS at it#txt#meta#mine#og#izzy hands#izzy critical#ofmd#our flag means death#ofmd meta#anyway the work experience was retail pharmacy and let me tell you. big-name pharmacies are a fucking shitshow#the turnover was awful so we were always staffed by people who didn't know what they were doing#i was only there for two years but turnover was so fast i ended up being the lead employee somehow#so i was ACTUALLY in charge of making sure people did their jobs. unlike izzy in e5 lmao#and when our pharmacists took vacation we'd have a substitute pharmacist come in and they almost always sucked#sometimes the sub pharmacist was worse at their job than the people who were there on their first day#i was on my feet all day and i was yelled at by customers non-stop and there's literally no way to count people's prescriptions fast enough#especially when you have new employees who count the fucking pills one at a time#and yeah i had a few coworkers who were like. always on their phone or always chatting instead of doing their job#and it was VERY annoying. even when they were nice and i liked them as people i HATED working with them#somehow i found the inner strength to not be a dick to them!! crazy stuff!!!

Are there any upcoming meet-and-greet or autograph sessions scheduled for Ms. Hina? She finally answered one of my questions and I would like to thank her in person, like a mature and respectable adult.
(transcribed for my boss, who isn't allowed to write in without my approval after last time)
Ah, Ms Hina. She's such a good egg, isn't she?
We don't have anything scheduled just right now, but come by our Hanamizaka store and have a look at our commemorative Ms Hina themed GITCG card backs. I think you'll like them.

I want Jon and Sasha to both be the archivist and to drag each other down through a corruption arc.
#they’re dating btw#not maintagging this but please know that the Jonsasha Eye Corruption Arc is constantly being rotated in my brain#I think Sasha is very smart and capable but wants to Know so badly that she gets really reckless and is willing to jump right over personal#boundaries. I think she’d make a great beholder and I lover her#but I hate fandomized hyper-competant Sasha#like sure there’s a lot of gaps in her characterization that could be filled#but I swear to god just about everyone who writes about her COMPLETELY glosses over the characterization#that we DO have#she makes the same risky and dangerous decisions as Jon in pursuit of knowledge#under much less dire circumstances#(talking about Michael specifically here. meeting the Creepy Monster that was hanging around who invited you to a cemetary after dark#and told you to come ALONE. is really suspicious?? but not only did she meet with it as asked she didn’t even tell anyone????)#don’t get me wrong I love sasha sosososososo much#but I think it’s really annoying (and kinda weird tbh?)#that most of the fandom seems to have sanded down everything we DO know about her#cuz she’d make a genuinly good Archivist?? she’s got the hunger for knowledge down and racks up two marks back to back (corruption and#spiral)#but everyone wants to IGNORE that so that she can be the competant and cautious Archivist who does everything Right#she HACKED. the employee records. of her coworkers/work friends. for FUN#and I love her so much for that????#but that just makes me think a paranoid s2 Sasha would be a terrifyingly effective stalker#and that her and Jon should be paranoid messes together and bond over late nights spent spying on other institute employees#they have a romantic picnic in a park while Jon painstakingly explains how Elias spent his entire evening last night#and Sasha considers this before launching into her own analysis of Tim’s browser history#just. just think about it. okay?#I’m very sorry if my ramblings show up in the js tag#I’m not sure how frequently it’s used#but enjoy my lengthy hot take about my two favoritest characters

If your employer knew about all the multiversal friends you have and their abilities, would you hand them over if they demanded it?
It’s honesty time!
They know. This connection was established with their blessing, and my communications are logged. Only on my side but. They know.
Threats have been made regarding my performance and the expectations of maintaining the company image.
I don't know. I hope it doesn't come to that.

bruhh the world really hates me this week
#let's see what happened? what hell did I go through?#we were down 12 people this week on the team- so we had two 12-hour work days#my body hurts and my feet are blistered- and I was assigned to help my supervisor wrap up in equipment for the week#which I barely got training on#yesterday I accidentally tripped the emergency fire exit alarm in walmart cause my dumbass didn't watch where I was going#which caused me to have a meltdown which I was trying VERY hard to hold back and not sob my eyes out in front of my boss#My belt buckle broke while I was working today so I had to stop and shop for a new one#I tripped and ate shit while packing the equipment cases into my supervisor's hotel room last night#my leg gave out from under me when I tried to stand up after counting a shelf in grocery and I rolled my ankle#I got lost when my supervisor told me to take the equipment to the back room#I had to stop and ask two walmart employees where it was located- neither of them knew#I've been overstimulated since first break this morning#I got so many scratches on my arrms from counting pegs in apparel and those bitches are so sharp they'd make my therapist concerned#aaaand while wrapping up equipment there was a bike hung up on a shelf and I ran face-first into the handlebar and I bent my glasses frames#so now I gotta get those fixed#I'm quickly making my way to the top in competing for 'most directionally challenged' as my supervisor jokingly put it#I'M GONNA GO DOWN TO THE LOBBY TOMORROW MORNING AND MAKE MYSELF A WAFFLE FOR BREAKFAST#I DESERVE A TREAT
