sci-fi jobs that must exist that i find inexplicably amusing:
space customs
tow trucks except they’re towing illegally parked spaceships
for that matter, spaceship thieves, if only for how much more effort i imagine that would take
irs agents who have to find tax evaders who went 2 or 3 galaxies over
literally everything about the concept of the space version of the dmv
imagine being the person who teaches hapless 16 year olds how to fly a spaceship
people who analyze Old Earth media for a living the same way people now analyze shakespeare or beowulf, aka a bunch of scholarly and serious academics writing papers arguing the true meaning of Mean Girls and Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure and A Very Potter Musical
cruise spaceships. you’re taking a slow tour of saturn’s rings and people are still complaining about you running out of cocktail sauce
feel free to add more
