Jobs: Difference between revisions

On Yogstation, your job is somewhat akin to your character class in that it defines your starting equipment, your [[Identification card|station access]], what you are expected to know or not know, and what you're expected to be doing with your time. Several jobs have time gates to them that must be fulfilled before the option to play them is available such as account age or time spent playing jobs in a specific department.
