[After everything that's happened in the past few days Pepper is ready to get back to business as usual. Then she's presented with the man she oh so recently helped send to jail. Pepper's jaw gapes open in unabashed shock. What is he doing here? Why is he here? Didn't they have enough trouble without bringing a no account, cheating, thieving JERK onto this turtle?
There is absolutely no way that Pepper is going to offer him a job with Stark Industries. She knows it's all hands on deck, but those hands need to be competent and trustworthy. Sure Hammer Industries is good for some things, but their development and field testing as well as almost anything when it comes to the big things needs everything to be desired. Besides, the man is now an escaped convict (Yes, she's counting being pulled into another world and living on the back of a giant turtle as escaping from jail). Let Bruce Wayne or ... anyone else deal with him. She refuses to let him anywhere near Stark Industries.]
