## Description
**Model Employee** is a corporate horror visual novel where players take control of  the latest individual amongst millions to start working in one of Tethys' online shopping labyrinthine warehouses. Just discharged from the hospital and massively in debt for their life-saving cybernetics, the player must adapt to the "extreme" work-life balance of a Tethys team member- but they have help. 

Penny, the artificial personality that controls all security, waste disposal, and employee surveillance in the facility, specializes in reinforcing a certain kind of workplace culture- and she's taken an interest in you. 

If you want to get ahead in your career, you gotta be willing to take some risks.
