Day Jobs suggestions thread

With the upcoming "day jobs," I've already heard some people saying "But my character wouldn't do that," or "Well, wouldn't this be cool?"

So, how about if we get all the suggestions into one place.

I'd suggest listing the "day job" and potential location. You might be able to come up with bonuses and/or badges - but really, what day jobs would your characters have?

For reference, this is what we know is coming now:

Hero:
City Official - City Hall
Law Enforcer - Police Station
Commuter - Train station
Shop keeper - store lobby
Intern - Portal Corp lobby
Caregiver - Hospital lobby
Banker - inside vault


Villain:
Demagogue - Arachnos building (Marconeville/Port Oakes)
Arachnos agent - Arachnos bases and Arachnos controlled areas
Pilot - near Black Helicopters
Smuggler - ferry docks
Crey employee - Crey Industries building in Nerva
Pain specialist - Hospitals
Thief - inside vault

Either side:
Clubber - pocket D
Fashion designer - Tailor lobby
Mortician - Graveyard.
Professor - inside universities
Midnighter - inside midnighter club

So, what would you like to see?

Here are a couple of suggestions to start off with:

Student - University courtyards
Architect (might be conflicting with MA) - SG base
Construction worker (suggested by someone else) - construction site.
Parapsychologist - anywhere dealing with ghosts (Croatoa, Fort Hades)

See my Guides and Tutorials

Ghost Hunter - Any place with ghosts/undead

Miner - Any tunnels/underground locations (might need more of these to make it work)

Sculptor - On top of statues

Ranger - Under the canopy of forested areas

Medivac - On top of Hospitals (as opposed to inside them)

SCUBA - In water

Explorer - Beaches

Dockworker/Longshoreman
Sailor/Fisherman
Gondolier (FF!)
Park Ranger
Commodity Trader (WW)/Arms Dealer (BM)
Vangard (RWZ)
Archaeologist/Relic Hunter (Cimerora)
Miner
Cage Consortium Employee
El Super Mexicano Employee (if selling tacos could work for Wonder Woman...)

A few more:

Miracle Man/Woman: Areas in/around Magic Store/Magic Vendor

Genetic Abnormality: Areas in/around Mutation Store/Mutation Vendor

Eureka!: Areas in/around Science Store/Science Vendor

Trained: Areas in/around Natural Store/Natural Vendor

Gadgeteer: Areas in/around Tech Store/Tech Vendor

Architect- logout in your SG base.

Lineman- logout on a power line.

Not that I am sure what location would be right for these professions

villains should have

Insurance salesman -
DMV Employee - any govt building
Computer Tech support - Any Crey facility (but that is already in use)
Telemarketer - WSPR TV station
Spammer - on the web in grandville

Thank you for your contributions.

You all massively fail for not posting this idea yet (except Ex Libris)

Reporter MUST be one of the day job options.

Edit: Also, I don't think the Architect would work, at least not with the SG base as the location; as it stands, if you log out there, you are booted back out the main portal.

Now, NEXT to the base portal on the maps might work.

Nice job, Memphis!

I think that's the shortest post-to-sticky time I've seen.

[/ QUOTE ]I don't think this is possible because when you log back in, you are in the zone you went into the SG base from. And to get the bonus you have to log out AND BACK IN in the same spot.
