Oooh, a few characters means a few jobs.
One mc is in a call centre, one a fashion designer, one runs a family owned business. One is a visual concept designer and photographer.
I have a Personal Banker and solicitor too…
Sacha Black says
A visual concept designer? I have no idea what one of those is but I love that you’ve thought so widely about their occupations
Ritu says
It’s a designer who can create the realistic visual for businesses, of the final product, or premises design.
Totally out there, right? I don’t know where it came from, but you wanted a job for a character who loved sketching, photography and imagery!
The rest are a smorgasbord of jobs, because that’s what you get in life, and within a group of people!
beccapuglisi says
I love the variety! Honestly, there are so many options. Looks like you’ve definitely left the box behind and are thinking past the usual jobs!
