Administrative Auditor
Dr. Jane Smith needed to find a new job. She felt neglected, never promoted, underappreciated, and given mundane tasks that were far below her competency level.
She had a Ph.D. in physics, but working as an engineer, her supervisor gave her paperwork to administrate, audit, and shuffle tasks. She only remained employed because of new protection laws for 'her kind.'
The next day, Jane went to a job interview for a position that offered a higher salary, better benefits, and that'd tap into her advanced theoretical problem-solving skills.
"Hello, Ms. Smith, please have a seat," said the interviewing manager.
"I see on your resume that you have a lot of work experience and a solid education. What makes you interested in working for our company?"
"Well." Jane cleared her throat. "In all honesty, I need a job that's more challenging for my abilities and knowledge. The job description mentions that a higher level of abstraction is required. I think I'd be a perfect match for that."
"I see," said the hiring manager. "We're an equal opportunity employer, but we also administer a test."
"Oh, what kind of test?" Jane's eyes widened.
"Nothing that shouldn't be beyond your abilities, Ms. Smith." The manager held up a holographic screen that rapidly flashed a series of symbols, formulas, and equations, and then he handed Jane sheets of paper and a pencil. "All I need for you to do is jot down what you observed and solve them."
Jane huffed, "I cannot."
"Why is that, Ms. Smith? Is there something wrong with your ..."
"No." Jane shook her head. "I'm not enhanced. I refused to get The Chip implant for religious reasons."
"I see." The manager raised an eyebrow, circled a piece of paper, and slipped it over to Jane. "I think this job would better suit you. We could always use a more purely human perspective."
The position showed the title of 'Administrative Auditor.'

Another great war awaits, but will she be able to avert it?Second iteration of the Knight's Fate saga chronologically speaking. Yes I'm starting from the second because the first was an utter failure when I tried to write it, it just didn't fit the mood of a fantasy novel unlike this one. Though don't worry this doesn't mean you can't enjoy this one before I write the first. This is the first story I've actually published so I appreciate any feedback, be it good or bad just let me know what you think.
