Not Suitable for Work‘s latest installments delivered a professional twist for Abby (Avantika), who had left her job working under stylist Vanessa (Constance Wu) to work alongside Austin Blanchett (Harry Richardson). Warning: Spoilers for Not Suitable for Work, Season 1, Episodes 6-7ahead!
The decision to leave behind her gig for what she believed was a quicker path to success turned out to be anything but. Instead, Austin revealed to Abby that he planned to work with a different stylist after she bent over backwards to get him a brand ambassador deal and blew up her steady job for an unknown future.
When Austin came to reveal the news at Abby’s apartment, she was quick to throw him out. The question is: Did his decision have anything to do with the fact that Abby wouldn’t cross the workplace boundary? It was clear Austin was interested in her romantically, but Abby was strong and maintained professionalism until they cut ties.
