Second best to OP, I’ve always thought, would be night security guard at a place that never checks up on you.
The kind of guy who is deep asleep and doesn’t see the protagonist on the security cameras. I’d be full on playing video games, and even if I noticed someone stealing shit I’d just let them, assuming I didn’t work for an orphanage or something.
I doubt that job really exists anymore, though. They probably have 3rd parties check up in you remotely, and track your active status in Teams or whatever. I guess what I really want is to (not really) work in the 80’s or 90’s.
Yeah that's a good one, also hotel night receptionist is very chill afaihbt.
Also about the security job, you normally have to go and do rounds every hour or so, and blip your tag. I mean it's a security job, they will know what you are doing, unless you're a bulldog with a spiked collar guarding a junkyard or something.
