Grounds for Removal/Dismissal
There are two ways the chief cosmetologist can be removed from their office. The first and most common is to be voted out in an election. The second is abuse; abuse of power, abuse of trust. There are three instances of the second being enforced. The third chief cosmetologist was abusive to those beneath him because the guild was not making as much money as he thought it should. The second time was when the chief cosmetologist took more cosmetics than could be used in a year and began selling them on the side, undercutting the guild's profits. The last time it was invoked the chief cosmetologist was caught skimming from the guild funds and altering the records to hide the theft.
