Employee of Eternity Nominations

Brigid O’Shaughnessy, Phyllis Nordlinger, Walter Huff, and Helen Grayle are my top nominees for Employee of Eternity, they will be wonderful asset to Hell,Inc. and its mission. They all are similar in the fact that they have committed murdered, a large portion of their cause is due to money or to get what they want, and then they have to cover up what they did. With the women, their similarities are their immaculate skills in seducing, manipulating, and lying, using their bodies and looks to get men to kill for them or protect them from the law. With Walter, his difference is pure remorse and you will not see that with any of the female candidates they truly have never felt bad for murdering someone.

I will further review each choice and their personal sins along with details that could qualify them.

Sadly Sam Spade falls into her trap and is used for her personal body-guard and information source concerning the falcon. Moving on from Spade to the captain of the ship, which she previously seduced and hid the falcon with, who is sho...

..., Helen Grayle is my favorite and I feel she would bring so much demonic presence to Hell, Inc. she did not murder any children. Therefore I must award the position to Phyllis Nordlinger. The choice was not easy but Phyllis is dedicated to death and the values of evil. I can gladly say she qualifies for every aspect of Hell, Inc. plus adding the perfect psychopathic essence.
