ok
so since c l e a r l y this network/glorified message board isn't used for anything actually important i'll ask it here

free cute phones (not sketchy at all btw). a file full of info on us (again: SO not sketchy). crappy apartments. roommates. big government. inter dimensional travel or w/e.
~superpowers~
this is all some special kind of bs but has anyone addressed the bs fact that the jobs we get assigned are like some kind of freaking joke
it's a little too insulting imo


has anyone gotten a job that they can take seriously

[coppelganger]

yeah, it's like they have to give us jobs to make us feel like we're not trapped here

I actually had a 'real' job when I first arrived: they made me a guidance counselor. Of course, I was rubbish at it, so now I bartend.

[nastygram]

wow
somebody in the job department hated you


honsetly that's the least surprising career move i've ever heard
statistically i bet 50 out of 60 guidance counselors end up bartenders

voice forever

[arkproject]

Are you saying you don't like it here? I understand governmental suspicion but it doesn't seem so bad to me.

Anyway, I like my job. I'm a world designer for online games. It suits me pretty well.

text forever

[nastygram]

[Daisy's been checking on the comm but rarely interacted as of late. The fact that whoever this was clearly had their suspicions. Ones Daisy shared.]

I have a job that is taken very seriously. Though I can agree, some of the jobs are questionable.

[nastygram]

I got assigned "Hot yoga instructor for workout show BODY HEAT!"

I ended up liking it, but I'm not going to deny it's a joke.

[nastygram]

ok so what's the joke

text;

[attainment]

They made me an energy drink spokesman, which has branched out into things like commercials and advertisement campaigns. Combined with my current hero work, it's really not that different from what I did back home.

[Maybe that's the joke. Oh well.]

[nastygram]

a hero who sells highly caffeinated beverages w/ their image and credibility
spawning a new generation of addicts

being a sellout pays pretty good huh

text;

[doubleblind]

My job's definitely not a joke, but the majority of them are? Probably like, 75%. Ish. Don't ask me to cite that.

[nastygram]

congrats on being in the 25%


so what is it

[rathercommon]

For THIS you go anonymous? Anyway, no, the jobs are all rubbish.

[nastygram]

i like to keep my ass covered at all times


it's so hard to fall in line and be a good little citizen w/ this bs
what are we supposed to do

[tactical_lalafel]

The only good thing out of my job is that I've been able to work it into getting me clothing in my size that isn't plastered with smiling cartoon characters, and write it off as a business expense.

[nastygram]

[musclemothers]

At home, I'm a scientist. An engineer, to be exact.

Here, they decided to assign me the job of sex therapist. So no, I'm pretty sure that it's just one big joke to them, only I'm not laughing.

[nastygram]

bc engineers are all virgins?

text | id reads "karen starr"

[boobwindow]

[nastygram]
