Jung might've been nicer about giving her a job, but do keep in mind she gave him a black eye when they first met. And like Aaron she hasn't been that good of an employee.

Agreed on the black eye bit; that was simply measure for measure on Jung's part. But apart from being upset when Jung made her wear a costume she hated (and upsetting her was his intent; see: black eye), was she really a bad employee? Jung soon appreciated having her around: her antics with Yuki, according to Jung, soon "doubled [the shop's] clientele." As a result, Jung called her a "keeper." She even later voluntarily, and enthusiastically, cosplayed as Nekomimi Mimi to make up for being late to work, and that brought in even more customers. (To be sure, she also committed no-nos such as reading yaoi on the job, but when Jung called her on it, she pointed out that the boss wasn't paying him to eat jerky on the job either. So he let it go.)

Aaron, in contrast, seems to be dead weight so far. (Unlike with Zii, even having him in costume doesn't contribute to the business, other than keeping Jung amused I guess.) The only reason I say "so far" is that there's the possibility he'll surprise everyone by coming up with a genuinely good superhero idea for the publishing imprint. But based on what we've seen of him, I doubt it.
