VYou are a vagrant, with only a small amount of money in your pocket and no family or friends to reach out to. As a high school drop-out, your resume is less than impressive. With few options, you have decided to make a go of it in a new city. Unemployed, your only options are to live in a small motel on the edges of town until you can afford to move to a proper home. In the meantime, your search for employment begins. After checking the classifieds, you locate three optimal options for jobs near you:
\u000a
\u000a[[A job as a clerk at the local Wal-Mart, which offers low pay but semi-reasonable hours|Wal-Mart]]
\u000a
\u000a[[A job waiting Tables at a nearby restaurant, at which you will have to depend in part on tips|Restaurant]]
\u000a
\u000a[[A job in construction which offers above-average pay but will require long hours and a large degree of labor|Construction]]
\u000a
\u000aWhich will you choose?

VYou take the test and, a few days later, you find out that you pass! You are formally hired as a clerk at Wal-Mart.
\u000a
\u000aAs the days go by, you find working at Wal-Mart somewhat discouraging. Your supervisor can be very strict and arrogant, and your co-workers range from compassionate to downright malicious. What's more, the work is often banal and unfuffilling. You spend most of your days restocking the store's items or helping customers with their purchases; your days blend together, each seemingly indistinguishable from the last. Still, low as the pay is, it's better than being unemployed. You have been able to aquire a reasonable amount of food, though nearly all of it is pre-packaged or comes in a can.
\u000a
\u000aAfter a few months at Wal-Mart, you remain at the Motel, unable to afford upfront the security deposits required to rent even the most bare of apartments. Still, you remain optimistic that, in time, [[your work at Wal-Mart will pay off.|Moral Dilema]]

VYou decide to take the job at the local Restaurant. A small diner, they interview you for a typical job as a waiter. Following some typical introductory questions, the restaurant manager evantually contacts you and offers you the job, which you choose to accept.
\u000a
\u000aWork at the restaurant isn't too difficult; though you sometimes have to deal with a rowdy customer or co-worker, the pay is semi-reasonable, and the tips is usually are as well (depending on the customer, of course). The hours are also fair, allowing you to at least get a decent night's sleep. Nontheless, the pay has not yet allowed you to move out of the motel or buy particularly nutritious or well-made food. Still, you perservere, hoping the job will take you places in the future.
\u000a
\u000aOne particular day, during the lunch rush, you spot a [[very rowdy table|Rowdy]] near your section that has yet to receive a waitress.

VOne day, while you are going through your regular shift at Wal-Mart stocking items, you find that a fellow employee and a recent friend of yours, Sandra, looks faint and as if she might pass out. You know that she has not been able to afford to eat a full square 3 meals a day, but she has come in to work day in and day out. You want to help her, but such a move would be incredibly risky. Your supervisor is incredibly strict, and going off-duty on your own work, even for such a justified reason, would likely result in a reprimanding, putting your job and ability to provide for yourself in jeopardy. What will you do?

\u000a
\u000aThe next day, you recieve a reprimanding from your supervisor. Though you try to explain that Sandra needed help, your supervisor presses the point that you abandoned your responsibilities as a clerk. Though you are scolded, you do not lose your job. Nontheless, tensions between you and your supervisor remain high, though Sandra and your other fellow employees seem to get along with you even better.

VTimes at the shelter are immensely difficult. You live in digusting conditions, with grime and dirt everywhere. Supervisors and government workers that run the shelter are often ineffective and on occasioan even malicious, and none are sympathetic to your unemployment. With no money, no home, and no one to reach out to, your future looks very grim. You pass your days in the shelter with little hope of employment, living off scraps and even resorting to begging. You want to concieve of a better future for yourself, one outside of the shelter, but you no longer can.

VOnce in the hospital, you are informed that your overworking has sustained significant damage to your hips, arms, and legs, that you may not recover from for some time, if at all. Your lack of sleep has also taken its toll on your mental and physical health. Your doctor advises you that there is simply no way you can continue working at the construction site without ending right back up in the hospital again very soon. With the hospital bills taking up the very last of your extended wages, you can no longer pay for your apartment, and you have no choice but to return to your beginnings and choose one of the [[other jobs|Start]] you considered earlier.

You are relatively new to the job, and not only do they not look like a particularly nice group of people, you also believe they might not be the best tippers.
