Editing Jerry Gryante (section)

=== Story ===

Jerry Gryante is or better was a prodigy of the wealthy [[Gryante|Gryante family]] an their respective business back on earth, specializing in medical and agricultural "creative" solutions. One of the advertised goals of the [[Gryante|Gryante Corporation]] indeed was to find novel food supplies. These include "new" crops like insect and mushroom farms, which might be harvested on small asteroids and even earth itself. However, the portfolio of the Gryante Corporation soon evolved beyond that field and now also encompasses basic medical and chemical products. Even if the official channels still emphasis the beneficial character of the corporation, rumors did not stop that Gryante also deals in some shady business as well.

Jerry Gryante is the youngest of three children. His father Thomas Gryante currently leads the Gryante Corporation in third generation after inheriting the mantle of CEO from Jerry's grandfather. Thomas indeed was and still is a very strict man, putting great expectations on his children and "encouraging" them to "live up to the name". Both Jerry's sibling [[Olivia Gryante|Olivia]] and [[John Gryante| John]] were able to live up to this high standard, Jerry not so much. 

Jerry always preferred a spoiled and lavish lifestyle, keeping his escapades hidden from his family for the longest times. Parties and gambling were his favorite hobbies. This combined with his admittedly snobbish attitude did not exactly grant him a lot of real friendships. This he would encounter the hard way, when his father finally got wind of his allures and disowned him in front of his own family.

This is when Jerry vowed to "life up to the name" in his own way. However reality hit him hard, as his former circle of friends where all to eager to abandon the now poor Gryante heir. He lived from day to day for some time, using his gambling abilities to keep him aloof. This reality check striped him of some his former snobby attitude (you can't convince people, when you talk down to them). At least that is, what Gryante thinks of himself.

He recently  [[Roldy Greenett]] after one of his gambling rounds in a bar. He first encountered him during one of his former "friends" birthday parties as an entertainer. They drank together and Greenett told him, he would hire for C&C. More as a joke Jerry applied for C&C as well: They both filed the application on this very night in the bar. To his surprise, he was accepted as a new employee of C&C. Jerry realized, this was the first time he was employed in a business not owned by one of his family members. Seeing this as a sign he enrolled with C&C. Perhaps this is a way to won up to the family name?
