Professions that Should Be!

[Ringo Montgomery]

I think in the event of an expansion following JtL, we should have some suggestions for new professions to submit to the powers that be. Here are some professions I'd like to see:

Power Converter Delivery Person

This would be useful for saving time if you don't want to go to Tosche Station to pick up power converters; however, if you're using this as an excuse to go cruising around in your new speeder behind your uncle's back, you'll need to find another lie.

Nerfherder

Why? Because I want to see what exactly a nerfherder is. Being scruffy looking is NOT a requirement.

Janitor (Custodian), Plumber, Electrician

How primative do our galaxies look without Janitors, Plumbers, and Electricians? I really think these professions are a must if we are to be taken seriously. Of course it goes without saying that Bothans, Ithorians, and Wookiees get bonuses for each of these professions upon startup

Shuttle Operators

I can't tell you how much I would love to be able to pester the shuttle driver when going on trips. Not only would I use the shuttle a lot more, but I'd feel like I was back in elementary school. Bonus XP would be given to the operators that pulled the shuttle over and lectured everyone on board about harassment and giving out threats to remove citizens from the shuttle. Also, slight mind buffs would be given if you got the back seat on the shuttle or cause the most harassment.

Dentist

As far as I know, all creatures in our galaxy have teeth, so why not have a dentist? A new patch would be needed that caused death via gum disease or gingivitis if citizens didn't visit the dentist regularly. Those who skip the dentist only once or twice would only have a mild case of bad breath which would offend all but Wookiees.

Image Changer

There should be a profession where you can change what a character looks like and what kind of detailin...What? Oh. My apologies.

X34 Xtreme Kustomization Artist

This is a profession where clients would bring in their X34 for large spoilers (to counter that wicked Tatooine downforce wind) as well as add large mufflers, sound systems, and neon lights under the speeder. This 'Kustomization' would make everyone feel a lot better about driving the F student of SWG vehicle roster.

Blast Door to Blast Door Salesperson

This profession requires the citizen to wear a cheap suit and tie and go around at the break of dawn to try and pawn off cheap items to the citizens of the galaxy. Popular items to sell are popcorn, chocolate, and religion. One bug has been found: avoid using Wookiees since most goods to be sold will go missing from the inventory and you will find yourself too full to eat anything. Weird.


Please submit your ideas as I will try to post more as they come to me.

[E-bo Obi]

Does anyone else remember the thread on the swg boards, under Gorath, about children in SWG? That one had some interesting additional professions added. I will try to dig it up.

[Ekade]

A couple I am thinking of, but don't have time to descrive are:

Imperial Weapons QC Specialist:
Calibrate Imperial firearms. Good eyesight optional.

Space Station construction worker:
Safety guaranteed.

Tie fighter pilot:
Do you think shields are a bad idea? So do we.

[E-bo Obi]

Caretaker: This person ensures that all the player created structures owned by the employer are properly maintained and all the bills get paid. If a structure is not kept in good condition the player may be sacked and/or publically flogged on the steps of the capital.

Concubine: This player takes care of all their employer's "needs." If the owner has any form of the name "david" in his name he can have over 100 concubines and send his neighbor off to die in a war so that he may take his wife as another concubine.

Pimp My Speeder ?! I can dig it. South Florida in da house...

Whup-Whooooooop!

Wookiee Groomer

Ever get sick of finishing second, third, even last in wookiee Grooming contests? Maybe its not the fact that Genericbacca doesn't have the proper gait or cute smile. Maybe you need SWGs newest profession: The Wookiee Groomer. These brave individuals are equiped with shampoos, scissors, brushes, and fragrances in order to help turn your Wookiee into the most beautiful Kashyyyk raised product in the galaxy.

Hyperdrive Repairman

Want a profession that rewards you with tons of money for doing little to no work? Perhaps a Hyperdrive Repairman is the profession for you; offering tons of credits for half-assed work even for those who really count on you to do quality work.

Thats true, but I at least gave your race a slap on the ass in the form of a bonus so they know we appreciate their work.
