I'm a fairly big and strong dude. I hate my current job and want to change careers. I think I would be a good goon, like a character Batman beats up before a boss fight in an Arkham game or that Noir detective outsmarts. How does one acquire such a job? I don't see any posting on Indeed.

Go talk to Jimmy the Fish down at the docks. He has a few jobs that need takin' care of.

I tried making cement shoes for someone, but I didn't have any cement and made them out of wood instead. I hope that's OK.

I tried walking to the docks but got stopped by a police officer who asked for my ID. Apparently you need a Longshoreman's certification to hang aroudn the the docks now.
