What part of the last fifteen or so years of human history leads you to the fairly surprising assertion that you should assume good faith?

Strong start. Theres conflict, an intriguing setting. I wonder if we could get a stronger feeling of who the MC is, a little bit of background. Right now she's just a viewpoint. What does she want, why is being fired such a big deal? Is she just worried about money and what Aeko will think, or is there some other reason? Thanks for sharing this!
