HCs dose of the week: stuff Desmond did for work during his runaway years

• seasonal jobs depending on the city he was in before he made it to NYC, possibly cashier work in tourist attractions cus he was good with numbers and people;
• street busking, he's handsome and i know he has a good singing voice;
• your average customer service clerk on chain stores, like Virgin or Blockbuster;
• a quick jaunt helping organize and carry inventory for a local store which led him to get recommended for,
• working inventory on a logistics warehouse, meaning that Desmond Miles is in fact, forklift certified;
• odd jobs as he was recommended to by friends and colleagues, anything from running mail to small fix-ups around the house;
• outsourced custodian work for an apartment complex, which was the most chill work he ever had if you ask him;
• stagehand for a local indie music scene, mingling with goths, metalheads and punks. he mostly did electricity and light directing, but on occasion, he did stage management;
• a longer-than-expected period at a mechanic's workshop, got a taste for tuning up cars and bikes there;
• food industry, maybe a prep cook or waiter on a smaller restaurant. not fast food though;
• and of course, front bartender on high-end bars like Bad Weather.
