Help Wanted
It was just a casual school day as the clock struck three and everyone was officially done with school for the week. Some students left already, though there were quite a bit of them outside or in the halls just making conversation.
Meanwhile there were a particular group of students that we all know and love. Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Sunset Shimmer. Seven girls, seven friends, all of them with different abilities that are truly magic.
The friend group are outside at the front of Canterlot High School, where they were just having a casual conversation.
“Well guys I’m gonna have leave soon. I’m gonna have to get to my 3 hour shift at the sushi place,” said Sunset.
“Meanwhile I have to make a few dresses for a couple clients of mine,” Rarity says as she paints her fingernails in a sky blue color. "How about you darling?"
"Everything is handled just fine at the animal shelter. I could be on break but I still want to make sure the animals are safe and accounted for," Fluttershy says a bit softly.
"I might as well start looking for a job for a change," Rainbow Dash says the other girls looks directly at her for the unexpected reply. "What? I'm actually serious."
"Sorry sugarcube, It's just that we weren't expecting that to happen," Applejack says.
"What made you think about getting a job anyways?" Sunset asks.
"Weeeel, I might need a bit of cash to get a new skateboard," she answers.
"Wait, what happened to your last one?" Applejack asked. Rainbow Dash just scratched the back of her head as she remembered the same incident she broke her skateboard out of rage.
Last Week
Rainbow was at the skateboard park trying out a new trick she's was trying to learn. Only a small amount of people were able to complete the trick. The trick was to get as much air as she can after reaching up from the top of the half pipe skateboard ramp and then bring the skateboard up above her head and then quickly back under her feet and make the landing. It takes a lot of practice to get it right, especially with a few bumps along the way.
Rainbow Dash makes her way to the half pipe to do the trick. She goes as fast as she possibly can, using a small amount of her super speed to accelerate a bit more. This is it, she's about to make the jump to do the nearly impossible trick so there's no turning back now. As she manages to get some air she makes sure to grab her skateboard and hold it above her head. After she completes that part of the combo she tries to get her board back under her feet. As she has the board under her feet again it was too late as it hits the corner of the half pipe and she falls down and injures herself a bit.
After suffering that type of blow she becomes enraged. She yells out in frustration and the next thing she knew she completely breaks her board in half.
“Oops...”
Present
“Well maybe you can take a job at the animal shelter. They can always use an extra hand,” Fluttershy suggests.
“You can also try mixin’ things up at my job Rainbow,” Applejack adds.
“Thanks,” says Rainbow. “I’ll start with Fluttershy’s job first.”
“It’s a plan then. You can try both of them and see which is better,” AJ said as the three girls walked away.
Later at the Animal Shelter
“I’m glad you wanted to try this Dashie,” Fluttershy says in her soft voice but a little bit more exciting.
“Sure. So when do I get to ride on a horse?” Rainbow Dash says.
“umm... we don’t do that to any animals here,” she points out.
“Oh... well what do you guys do around here?”
“Well we usually feed them, make sure they get nourishment, and even give them tender loving care,” the soft spoken girl says.
“How about I just feed one of them?” Rainbow asked.
“Well sure... but I’ll just give you a practice test,” Fluttershy says as she pulls out Angel Bunny from her book bag.
“Ugh... no one said that a job would have a quiz or whatever it is,” she groans as Fluttershy pulls out two carrots.
“Look, all you have to do is feed Angel a carrot,” she explains as she gives Rainbow two of the carrots.
“Fine,” she says with neutral tone. Rainbow looks at Angel as she carefully moves the carrot towards him. As Angel eats part of the carrot with his teeth he holds it with his little arms and Rainbow let’s go of it.
“You did it Dashie,” Fluttershy says softly as she hugs Rainbow Dash. The rainbow-haired girl blushes a little. Angel tries to get the carrot in Rainbow’s other hand.
“Uhh I think one whole carrot is enough Angel.”
Angel on the other hand disagrees with Rainbow. The next thing she knew Angel jumps on her face and attacks her as he tries to get the carrot.
“Angel!!!!!! No... umm... bad bunny.”
“GET THIS THING OFF ME... AHHHH!!!!!”
Later at the Canterlot Mall Juice Bar
“It’s basically an easy job, nothin’ much,” Applejack says.
“So what am I supposed to do here?” she asks.
“Well you have to take an order from somebody at first. Then you just uses these here juice machines to give them what flavor they want or they be mixin’ some flavors,” she explains. “It’s that simple and I wrote down the first order for ya.” Rainbow Dash looks around the bar a bit nervously.
“Ok... easy how hard could it be?” Rainbow Dash went ahead with the task and the next thing she knows, she was in for a recipe for complete disaster.
Later
Rainbow Dash was outside of the mall completely covered in slushies and other juice flavors. Applejack joins Rainbow and sits beside her, covered in juice flavors as well.
“Ok well... that’s a minor setback.”
“Minor Setback?” Rainbow looks towards AJ.
“Ok maybe a huge setback,” she says. “But ya can’t just give up maybe that was not the right job for you.”
“Oh please AJ, I’m not gonna get a job. I’m no good at jobs,” Rainbow doubts herself. “I think I’m gonna take a walk after I dry off. See ya later Applejack,” she says as she walks in the mall to go get something to dry off.
Throughout the day Rainbow Dash just takes a stroll around town trying to figure out what to do for a job so she can get a new skateboard. After walking for a while she decides to go to the music store.
She opens the door and walks in the store as the door closes back by itself. She walked around for a bit until she heard the sound of boxes being moved in the back. It was Vinyl Scratch moving a couple boxes around back as she came to the counter.
“Oh hey, Vinyl,” she greets as Vinyl gives a thumbs up in response. “If you’re wondering why I’m here I was just looking for job so I can get some money for a new skateboard,” Vinyl looks at RD with a straight face as she was listening to her music.
“I don’t know it’s just that I’ve failed two times to get an actual job. I mean why do people need to have jobs if it’s a set up for failure,” Dash says as a customer comes in the store and approaches the counter.
“Hey, you know where I can get Vivid Screamz latest album?” the customer asks. Rainbow Dash uses her super speed to go get the album he wants and comes back with it.
“Here it’s 5 bucks for the CD,” Rainbow says as the customer puts 5 dollars with some change on the counter.
“Keep the change,” he says as he leaves the store.
“I don’t know Vinyl maybe I should quit while I’m a...” Rainbow Dash was cut off by Vinyl as she points at the money. Rainbow was confused until Vinyl points at the customer who was just leaving. “Yeah sooooo Oooooohhhh,” a light bulb turned on in her head.
4 Days Later
“Come again soon,” Rainbow says as she hands the girl her CD after she gave her the cash for it. As soon as the customer left Vinyl stood beside Rainbow and gave her a thumbs up. The two girls gave each other a high five as well.
Rainbow Dash, coolest girl in school, multiple star athlete, and official Employee of the day.

I was done waiting around for the officials to do anything so I made my own
Since this is a take on a season 3, wonder if some stuff like about the whole problem with Spike being a dog would be addressed?
Pretty much they just ignored the issues and Spike really got the short end of the stick due to being a dog..
Can't wait for the cornucopia costume story
What happened to seasons one and two?
10719776
10719827
10719854
Thank you everyone for reading
10719798
I’m not sure if I can somehow. Maybe an episode in equestria in FiM or on another story. It’s hard to stick the landing with that in my opinion.
10719862
Equestria Girls was made into a web series that were already season 1 and 2
10719864
You’re welcome
10719864
Oh.. ok then..
Really, the problems of Spike being a dog really screwed him over.
Way too many times he got excluded, forgotten or just.. THERE like a prop.
Heck, apparently Sci-Twi is bringing Spike her less and less at school(which is really not a good sign), it was pretty bad enough she doesn't bring him at the mall or the park(which is pretty hypocritical due to she literally brought him with her at school, especially when she was so focused on her education and yet she is willing to risk that by bringing Spike).
Doesn't even get anything. The girls kept getting more powers but Spike gets NOTHING pretty much..
10719880
Hmmm maybe I can try and talk about in another short story
Wait you kids still use CDs?
(I remember around 2018 I asked a kindergartener what was their favorite TV channel. They said, "Netflix!" I felt SO old.
)
10720012
I still have my CDs
This sure was great, can't wait to see more if this in the future my friend. Keep up the good work
Now I loved reading this!
Thank you so much for making me feel like Equestria Girls still alive!
I love it so much. Thank you for keeping Equestria girls alive
. But uh, one question. What happened to rainbow dash's last job. She worked at the sports store.
Looks good so far, can't wait to see more!
Haven't read yet but I never understood what's the deal with hasbro's video description. It describes both ponies and humans except no Sunset and both descriptions are same with little difference. And why do they still make 20min long videos made from parts from old videos and how does they still get thousands of likes?
10720456
1. Honestly since this is a continuation of the series (mostly cuz they never announced anything) I thought it might be suitable for this.
2. That's what I was asking when did the compliations
Doesn't Rainbow Dash work at the sports store?
10720645
10720229
Oops
I forgot about that gawd dang it
I honestly don’t remember that so I’ll just say I decided to change it to this.
Not bad. I'm looking forward for more. By the way what are the ships. One is definitely Flutterdash. Are you going with Sunlight or Twitimber? For some reason the series had both ships even though twitimber was established first and sunlight was never officially said other than little gestures.
10720774
There’s no romance involved with this but I will put in cute moments of ships throughout
10720698
You could change it so that Rainbow lost her job at the sports store and this is her finding a new one.
10721166
Well It just that I’ve never really seen RD at that job in the actual web series sooo......
Nice. I'm a little surprised no one made a season 3 of Equestria Girls as a story already, but here it is!
10721172
If no one else is doing it I’m doing it myself.
The story even got featured too
10721175
That's the spirit! It's like a version of that saying "if you want something done right, do it yourself".
Oh yeah. I only got around to checking it out now, but I saw this featured for a while earlier.
Good start. Can't wait to see what you come up with next.
That was a great read! I feel you made it perfectly as an episode, can’t wait for episode two!
You know? I haven't seen one of these stories in awhile, where it's just the EQG cast doing fun stuff. Most of the time, I see them in alt universes, or dealing with some melodramatic crap that comes with magic and high school. I can't wait to see where you take this! A solid 9.5/10 just because this need more chapters!
10723429
Thx
I’m hoping for this to be a great project
This is so cool i can't wait to see what you come up with more episodes.
I have a suggestion for one episode: Sci Twi experimenting with equestrian magic, but accidentally the experiment goes wrong and Spike is affected by some magic wave, transforming him into a human it would be epic
10726055
Hmm maybe. Transforming Spike into a human would be cool. Though Idk how it’ll work but I’ll see what I can do.
That was pretty cool. This story should be animated.
10743216
Just need to draw the frame animation and get the voice actors ^^
Finally gotta chance to catch up in this. The thing is I thought Rainbow worked at the shoe store. I remember in one music video her fitting Sunset with a new pair of shoes. Other than that I like first episode.
In addition to a couple people mentioning Rainbow Dash already had a job at a sports store in the Summertime Shorts, didn't Rollercoaster of Friendship show Applejack quit her job at the smoothie place due to being overconfident she would get a job at Equestria Land?
