Jobs in Zombie Outbreak


Red = Required
Green = Over Billeted
Blue = One more needed
Black/Bold = Full
Orange = Unlimited
So, we have all sorted out our qualifications and "experiences". Where does that leave us when Z-Day comes? We all have excellent skills, but what good is a mechanic, if there are no drivers? Or a brilliant leader? What are they without their men? This here will outline our roles to play when the outbreak begins. I shall add a couple to begin with.
The next person I catch removing a name from a list, less moderators, will be banned.

Journalist, Historian, Archivist, and Librarian
Library Of CongressDuties: Collect, maintain, and protect pre-fall books, covert same to electronic format (in HTML and notebook format), maintain records of the rise, and disseminate same to fellow survivors.
WARNING: Many disasters have been caused specifically by propaganda disguised as journalism (example: the Viet Nam war was only lost by the South Viet Names after utterly false reports about the course of the war were sent to the US, UK, and Australia by Communist-sympathetic ‘journalists’). To fill this duty, you must be able to collect and disseminate data WITHOUT POLITICAL OR PERSONAL OPINION- “Just the facts, maám .”
Archivist and Librarians must have a love of ALL written word, without personal bias; While many books may well be burned during the crisis, afterwards EVERY book possible must be saved. To this end, as many as possible should be converted to an electronic format to ensure they survive as long as possible, and to allow greater dissemination.
Historians must not only have a love of history, but also to collecting information about the past through all means available, and be prepared to offer analysis both with an absolutely neutral point of view with as few words as possible, and only when requested. Like an Journalist, they must focus on the facts and only the facts that they can PROVE.

Danger: There had better not be any.
Minimum number of members choosing this rank: No limit. Any person who can read, write, and do at least basic math should be volunteering for this duty, unless they have pychatric problems.

I'll settle with dropping the entertainer idea as it will happen on its own..But, we need drivers...APC drivers, Truck drivers, whatever; we still need them...I'df like for it to be placed near the pilots section; I can't fly and I won't claim that I can either, but I can sure drive, and so can a lot of other ZSDW members....We need them dedicated though so when the time comes for extraction we're not left in the cold since they're all busy making Cocoa Wheats or drawing doodles on paper that resemble combat tactics...

Thoughts? Comments pertaining to the subject? Wanna tell me to go back to playing 007: NightFire?

Just a thought.... what is the job title of someone who kills zombies??
As a technical term i mean. For example, a garbage man would be a garbage disposal technician.
Zombie homicide assistant (apprentice)
Undead exterminator

Some of these jobs could be collapsed into each other. For example, everyone will be a soldier to a degree, as well as a watchmen.

I'm proposing that we divide each of these jobs into separate sections

Military Operations- Responsibilities would be training as well as base security. People in this field would be conducting missions that ranged from search and destroy missions to security. Military training is recommended.

Logistics and Maintenance - Would ensure base is supplied and maintained. Duties would include armory, storehouses, vehicle and equipment maintenance, and keeping track of equipment.

Engineering - Responsibilities would encompass construction and maintenance of structural defenses and other base structures. Would include demolitions.

Medical Corps - Would be responsible for first aid treatment and training, as well as psychological counseling.

Communications and Intelligence - Ensure steady stream of information to command staff as well as maintaining commo equipment

Command Staff - Responsibilities would include centralized command of base operations.

Hopefully that covers most of the basics.

well I'm a marksman and you could count me in as a Survivalist, tactician, body disposal technician, and supply gatherer. Those are the things I could contribute to the survival effort.
