So, here's the thing. I get that most of us don't want to be here.
[let's start by acknowledging that, alright? Emma doesn't want this. she's new, she's pissed, and all she wants is to get back home to her son. there's a role she's being forced into here that she'd like to totally ignore, but that's only going to make her life harder in the long run.
if playing along is what's going to get her home, then she's playing along - for now.]
It's apparently enough of an issue that I've been enlisted as a personnel retrieval officer. What that means for you is that if you're not where you need to be, I'll have to find you, and then I'll have to escort you to the right place. you can try getting out of it but I have almost too much experience in this sort of thing, and I always get my guy.
[it's being a bailbondsperson all over again. she may not want to do this, but she's perfectly capable of it.]
So show up for work, alright? This sucks enough on it's own without any of us making it worse.

[Finally, he laughs.]
I'm only joking. I didn't realize showing up for work was so difficult around here.

[Maybe they just picked Emma because they know she'll try anything to get back to Storybrooke. Not that it matters, at least a crappy job is still something to do.]
It seems like the biggest complaint is from people who weren't placed properly to begin with, I don't blame them for not wanting to deal with it.

[Working with his dad is not fun.]
I do wonder how they go about deciding things.

[She can't find a reason to be the one to do it. This is probably as close to appropriate work as she's going to find here.]

That or they have some sort of... mystic power decide or something.
