[Jimmy's looking a lot better than he did last time he was broadcasting. He's sitting on a couch, and it doesn't look like he's been hitting the sauce.]

So...how does a guy who's never had a real job get himself a real job?

I don't need nothing fancy, just something that pays at the end of the week, you know? I can haul boxes or sweep a floor, I know options aren't great for a guy with no education and no normal work experience.

[But he's not going to be some moocher, he's gonna pay rent and buy food and be able to get things fixed when they broke. All that kinda stuff a guy ought to do.]

But everybody's always telling me how that doesn't matter here, so I figure there's gotta be options!

Excellent. The bigger the city, the more opportunities you'll have. And if you do find work that involves lifting or sweeping, you can always ask your Pokémon for assistance. I've not yet seen an employer refuse that.

Got that going for me, then!

Hey, never thought about that. Bet Omi could push a broom!

Does Omi happen to have more than two arms or tentacles? Few floors last long against the might of half a dozen brooms.

Nah, he's just got the two. But I don't mind hard work.

That's exactly the sort of work ethic that'll get you far. Especially if you find work that also offers a challenge.

I hope so. I just want something that I can get paid for, all normal like.

As opposed to receiving a yearly pension, or depending on your parents?

No, I kinda...grew up in a communal sort of situation. Traveling show kid. We all just pooled together the money the show made and used it for food and stuff, nobody really got a paycheck.

That sounds like the sort of system a travel party or a household would use. And yet it was applied to your whole community? Your treasurer must have had a lot of work to do.
