readingredheadIf Heaven were run like some hybrid of a mega-corporation and the American executive, what would individual departments be responsible for? So far, I have:
Human Resources: the angels who are internally responsible for passing information onto God--hiring, firing, promoting, demoting, etc.--but as a concession to their own position, they are not allowed to rise any further up in the heavenly hierarchy. If you hit HR, you stay there for life, unless you do something that gets you demoted. (Although would they call it Human Resources if they're not dealing with humans? Perhaps "Human Resources" actually is in contact with humans somehow?)
Public Relations: angels who try to go around cleaning up messes—keeping up the positive image of the Forces of Good in this world. They work closely with the network of the human church, trying their best to make sure that God’s representatives on Earth are doing the right things, giving the religion (and the religious) a good name. Hell’s PR firm is notoriously skillful, and God is always busy trying to match their offensives, making PR a difficult job, but one that could get you promoted very easily if you do your job well.
Customer Service: answers prayers
But what does "Research and Development" look like? Manufacturing? Retail? What do corporations do that I can play with to create much fun and amusement?

do you have guardian angles in the mix? manufacturing could involve babies, human and maybe otherwise. perhaps r&d could be related to adaptations of animals (darwin-type stuff, i suppose). as for retail... i haven't a clue.
let me know how this is going-i'm super interested! is this related to your job re-telling story?
