<strong>I think it bears mentioning that we have some thoughts for characters that choose to take up a profession.  <br/><br/>A character can have a job if they would like.  As jobs take time away from potential plots and character interaction, we are not asking players to play out their job everyday.  Instead, we will simply ask that a block of the day (Morning, Afternoon, Evening or Night) be 'blacked out' for said job on the days that they would be working.<br/><br/>For most basic jobs, a player can determine their own hours and days as well as job description.  If there are questions, please contact Ciosa and I.  <br/><br/>For those that are running shops, we also do not expect your character to only be able to post in the Buyer Beware thread.  So long as other players are interested, there can be as many posts there as everyone would like - we never want to discourage player interaction.  However, we do not want players to be trapped in their shop or simply waiting for people to need something from their shop.  Owning a shop can work much like having a job.</strong>
