Staff Rules: 1. As a staff member of Tiannan Academy of Drama, you must remain firm in your heart and remember your identity. 2. It is recommended that you make more friends, with at least two friends. Remember their identities, appearances, and habits; they can serve as reminders when you become lost. 3. As long as you are within the Staff Office Building, you are considered to be on duty. While working, staff must fulfill their duties wholeheartedly and must not slack off. If you feel unwell, you may rest in the Rest Area on each floor for 5–10 minutes. 4.
