Work, duty and pay

Getting hired, clocking in, grades and companies.

Version 1, updated History

Work is how your character lives. Every job in the city is played by real people, and most of them are open to newcomers.

Getting a job

  • Civilian jobs (mechanic, cab driver, cook, scrapper and more) are open to everyone at the Employment Agency, Kabuki Gallery. Press E at the terminal or type /agency there.
  • Hired jobs (NCPD, Trauma Team, ripperdoc, fixer, netrunner) are given by the boss of that company, in person: they must stand within a few metres of you to hire you. Ask around in the city.
  • The full list, with pay, is on the jobs page.

Duty and pay

  • F9 clocks you in and out. Only clock in while you work.
  • F6 shows your job, grade and pay.
  • Pay is by grade: recruit, employee, senior and boss. Your boss promotes you.
  • Wages are paid every 10 minutes of active duty, into your bank account, minus 12% tax.

Running a company

  • Grade 3 is the boss. Bosses hire, promote and fire, and manage the company account.
  • Each company has its own account (its society). Wages come out of it, and the company's sales go into it.
  • A boss runs their company in roleplay: interviews, training, shifts. Staff step in only when the rules are broken.
