Employee #333-4-591032

Employee #333-4-591032 (会社員^?, Kaishain) and Treat Spider (イランコトシームシ^?, Irankotoshī Mushi), also known as Employee and Pest in Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise, are characters who appear in Packing Pests in Rhythm Heaven Fever and Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

Story

Employee #333-4-591032 left his mother in the country and moved to Tokyo to become an actor. His earnings as one are small, so he started work at his uncle's candy factory to make ends meet^[1]. There, he and several other employees sort the product by catching candy to put into a box and slapping away any Treat Spiders which fly their way. He got through sorting training and went right to work. After a job well done, the workers received their bonuses. Later on, they were asked to do some overtime work. Prior to this, Employee #333-4-591032 seems to have grown hair. As usual, the workers got paid at the end of the shift.

It's been two years since Employee #333-4-591032 started work at the candy factory. At some point, he went to an audition. He did not receive any news from it afterwards, but had a good feeling about it. He wrote to his mother about it, and sent her half of that week's bonus as he usually does^[2].
