The OP needs to do a little research on what day jobs already exist so he doesn't duplicate ones that already exist and explain how what effects players will earn from the new ones he ends up suggesting.
...ok. Now go through that entire list, and redo it to where it makes sense.
1: Name of the Day job.
2: Log out locations.(Remember, one location CANNOT be used for two day jobs. You've already got Gambler and Professional Athlete by logging out in arenas, but we already have a day job for logging out in arenas.
3: What would be the Day job power associated with each Day job?
4: List them all in the same manner so that other people can understand it. For example...
Bus Driver - Logging out while standing in a bus stop - def/res to toxic and psychic damage
i read all of the OP's threads and it makes me think of brewha......
/unsigned to all of them cause i don't feel like pl'ing my post count.
all i did was go thought all the listing of the most requested day job
if some one would like to that the time to filter out these i would love it
i think the name are the most imporant thing right now as they give us who read it a meatal image of a job that done in pargon city
the break down of that job and how it affect player in game is 2nd
if i get time later on i will try to break down jobs

Why?
Seriously, if every one of those day jobs you listed are already on the forum, why put them up here again?

New Daytime Jobs
All he's doing is reposting a list of names and places. He isn't making any effort to see if any already exist or overlap, He doesn't seem to be aware that earning a day job badge has an in game effect, or that when combined with other day job badges they form accolades that have an additional in game effect.
Until he gets his act together, does the research and posts something more than a list of names and locations this is a colossal waste of time.
Oh, heck no!
It was enough of a hassle with the existing ones, no more are needed. Especially if GR introduces even more! >_<

I did read your post. At no point did you say "This is a consolidated list of the ideas for potential Day Jobs posted in the stickied thread". As for your fallback statement... not everyone reads every thread posted in every section of every forum, so how would someone know you made that statement if they didn't read that thread and relate it to this thread?|

| Introduced with Issue 13, the Day Job system allows characters to log out from a specific location, like a Hospital or Vault Reserve facility, and gain a temporary power or other benefit when they return to play after an extended period offline. Prolonged offline time in each Day Job is also worth Badges. |
