Jobs

In order for Jake to earn money, he requires a job. Depending on which story-line Jake is on, different work opportunities will become available to him. Some of these jobs can be found at the Job Center, whilst others are only offered to Jake by relevant NPC's assuming that he meets all the required criteria.

Jobs have different rules, for example the pool cleaner job has no specific start-finish times so Jake may do the work at any time (during daylight hours) but he may only do the work once per week. Other jobs are required to be done daily and have strict start-finish times which if Jake continuously misses he will get fired.

Some jobs pay a fixed amount per time, and others pay on commission which require Jake to successfully complete a task in order to get paid. Certain jobs have promotion prospects too, which mean that if Jake is consistently successful in that job he may get a promotion which includes a pay raise, better hours and other perks.

Some jobs include a "pickup" which means that jake does not manually have to travel to the location of the job, he will automatically be taken there at the relevant time, thus meaning it is impossible to accidentally miss work. Other jobs require Jake to make his own way to and from work meaning he must keep an eye on the time more carefully.
