Today I want to uncover misfortunes in Eorzea, especially the horrible payment and working conditions. As adventurers we are trying to safe the world and make it a better place. Whenever an angry god is summoned, we are there, risking our life. The payment for “Judgment Bolts and Lightning” (killing Ramuh extreme) is 2445 gil. Did you guys know that the barber gets 2000 gil for one haircut which takes him like 2 seconds? Ok, I know he is very skilled, making a long haircut out of a short haircut, nevertheless he isn’t risking his life. Since the wage is ridiculously low my character has to do overtime in dungeons, which takes 7 hours (20 minutes RL = 7 hours Eorzea time). Call it a day! Au Ra need sleep and free time too! Because of these horrible conditions I’ve seen more and more adventurers attempting suicide by jumping off high places, luckily, they survived with 1 LP. Therefore, I make demands for minimum wage and regulated working hours. THIS INAURAN TREATMENT CAN’T GO ON!
Stop treating us like slaves!

I mean, they won't even give us a house. We have to kill a thousand of primals at the rate they pay to be able to afford one! It's like they want us to be their little indentured murderhobos, taking any job they'll give us in the hope of not sleeping on the street.

To be fair, he is top of tops hair dresser that can make short hair long and bald into blonde.
2000 gil is fare. -

Maybe you should make a commercial to raise public awareness.

It's like Tridus said, people are sleeping (log out) on the street, because they can't afford a house/apartment even though they make Eorzea a safe place. I had to sleep on the floor after purchasing my first apartment, because I was so broke that I couldn't afford the bed. I had to do overtime in a dungeon (no quest, no payment) to loot the gil, because I couldn't fell asleep on the cold floor. -

Hence the phone ringtone-like chirp that proceeds a linkpearl call in cutscenes.Quote:

And just because you're now ordained as the Warrior of Light, you are still just an adventurer legally like all the rest.
Really, I think maybe your character should consider another career path if this is too much for them. ;) -
03-14-2018, 09:12 AMNanaKimDo we have possibility to broadcast? Will adventurer be able to listen/see the commercial?Quote:

The barbershop doesn't hire atm. Seems like that one guy can cope with all customers. -
