Mercy Island
Initial Greeting
So here's the deal, Character. I'm here to talk to you about the extremely lucrative world of Day Jobs.
Day Jobs are what you do when you're offline and not running around the Rogue Isles committing crimes.
As far as I'm concerned, it's a crime to call it 'work' because it's just so easy, but - hey - if that isn't incentive, I don't know what is. So here's how it works: you 'work' at your Day Job by logging out in a Day Job location. While you're logged out you gain benefits that 'fit' the area that you're logging out of. If you log out in the same location for 21 days (non-consecutively or consecutively) you will receive a Day Job badge. This gives you some pretty nice employment perks, and this isn't just a sales pitch.
As if that weren't enough, collecting certain Day Job badges will grant you Accolades that come with even more benefits. So, do we talk terms or have I wasted my time?
Specific Day Jobs
Tell me more about specific day jobs and their rewards
Very smart. Asking the right question is paramount to any job interview.
So let me make this simple. Here's some specific locations and their benefits you get for 'working' at a specific location. This isn't the complete list, it's just a teaser. You're going to have to explore to find all of them.
Demagogue: Log out in the Arachnos Building in Port Oakes and for a limited time receive an Infamy bonus when completing a mission.
Midnighter: Log out in the Midnighter Club and for a limited time receive a random piece of arcane salvage when completing a mission.
Duelist: Log out in an Arena and for a limited time receive a bonus to your maximum Endurance.
Fashion Designer: Log out at a Facemaker to receive coupons that grant a discount to Tailor fees.
Pain Specialist: Log out in a Hospital and for a limited time receive an out-of-combat regeneration bonus.
Professor: Log out in a University and for a limited time receive a random piece of tech salvage when completing a mission.
Clubber: Log out in Pocket D and for a limited time earn a bonus to your out-of-combat Recovery.
Monitor Duty: Log out near a Villaingroup portal and for a limited time earn a prestige bonus when completing a mission.
Smuggler: Log out near a ferry dock and for a limited time earn a random enhancement when completing a mission.
Thief: Log out in a Vault and for a limited time earn an Infamy Bonus when completing a mission.
Marketeer: Log out near the Black Market and for a limited time you will be granted a device that can quickly teleport you to the Black Market.
Not a bad teaser, huh? It's the tip of the iceberg, pal. The rest is up to you, so get out there and explore. The world is your oyster.

Day Job Accolades
Tell me about day job accolades
Excellent request. You have that shrewd look about you, you know. So I'm going to give it to you straight. Trust me, you're going to like what I have to say.
If you earn two different day job badges that work together, you'll be granted an accolade. Earning an accolade will grant you even more benefits beyond the individual day job.
For example, earning both the Pain Specialist and Professor day job badges will earn you the Physician Accolade. While logged out at a University or inside a Hospital you will earn charges for your Revive Ally power.
I know I'm just a recruiter, but this kind of job satisfaction makes me tingle. Imagine the Accolade possibilities! Some of the legwork is up to you, though, so you'll just need to get out there and explore. Nothing in this world as sweet as options, am I right or am I right?
