"People try to sue over product mishaps," Alix said casually. He really didn't want to go into the details in the middle of the store, and he certainly didn't want to talk about it with Niki if he wasn't going to hire him. He doubted that he would speak about it even if he did take on the boy as an intern.
He remained quiet as Niki answered his question, turning over what the lad said in his mind. He didn't really have motivation other than simply wanting to prove his usefulness. So he wasn't out to gain anything specific from working for the twins, and he didn't really seem to be lying.
It twisted his arm a little to think that by dismissing him, he might be labeling him as useless. That wasn't what he wanted, "I can assure you that you're not useless. Perhaps you're not meant to do particular things, but no one is utterly without use," he said. Why he was trying to be the least bit comforting, he wasn't sure. In some ways...when he looked at Niki he almost thought of a child. He seemed a bit harmless.
"This slot is currently only temporary. I'll have to talk with Fred and George about it. If you prove that you can do the job efficiently after a bit of instruction on how I would like it done, then it's possible that you'd be taken on until the task is finished. After that, it would be up in the air as to whether or not another task would be found."
