Mecha and Destroid mechanics are a rare breed as there are so few Destroids and mecha still in use, however anumber do still exist and create a more than adequate amount of business for these specialist mechanics. Although most Mecha and Destroid mechanics are employed by construction companies and Colony Defence Forces to repair and maintain their mecha, many other mechanics are still independant. Most do call out work, and own large cranes and equipment to assist them in fixing the enormous vehicles they must fix.

The number of Variable Fighters owned by civilians maybe small compared to the sheer weight of numbers owned by the UN Armed Forces but they do exist, and they require skilled mechanics to learn how to repair and maintain them. Most Universities that cater for mechanical based courses will provide a VF Mechanics course, the majority of people attending this course will go on to join the UN Armed Forces as VF mechanics, but many will go off into civilian careers as VF Mechanics making lots of money.

Miner (Min PE 9, 6 months training. Start age 16).
New planets and the vastness of space may seem like many to be wide and empty but to those who know better new planets and objects in space such as asteroids are enormous untapped resources. Miners will specialise in one area normally, although it is common for those who have been miners for a while to train in both earth based and space based mining. The more intelligent prospective miners will go to University and learn to become a Mining engineer and will co-ordinate and organise the digging of new mines, and mining operations.

Models of both sexes need to be able to performto the standards required of them on a catwalk or modelling shoot, in otherwords, ways of walking, ways of standing, and ways of looking. In many ways being a model is like being an actor or actress but one without any lines. Models can start at any age, but most find that work immediately drys up when they approach 30. However as they make so much money from catwalk shows and fashion shoots they are normally able to comfortably put away enough money to retire on long before that happens.

Becoming a coroner usually involves a lot of investigation into how a person died, thus making coroners the 'Police Investigators' of the Medical profession.

And because of this there will always be those people who will prey on those men and women who have fallen into prostitution. Pimps are rarely the leopard skin safari suit, cane carrying pimps of the 1970's films of Hollywood. Normally they are dressed business style, (if successful,) or comfortably dressed in jeans and a t-shirt watching their prostitutes or rentboys and ensuring they get their cut of the money.

A P.I. must also know the law so as to know what he can and can't do legally in the pursuit of his goal, however most bend the law as much as they can.

Psychics and Fortune tellers are seen by many as a fun diversion, but for others, especially those of certain cultures Psychics, Fortune Tellers, Witch Doctors, Witches and Brujah's skills are an essential part of their cultural history and beliefs. People will sometimes run their entire lives and careers by what the local Fortune Teller tells them. Others will seek out a Witch or Brujah to do a cleansing spell on them to keep negative energies (AKA the Evil Eye.) Most psychics and fortune tellers have no real psychic powers but have a true belief that what they are doing is real. Others are charlatans and con-men looking to fleece people for everything they can get. A very very small minority of people have some form of gift, be it esp, the ability to see glimpses of the future, or something else in some small way. most true psychics work for free and ask for nothing in return. However locals will normally thank them by doing services for them, (weeding the garden, painting their house,) or giving them food, (something special like Grandma's secret recipe Lasagna, as opposed to cans of food.)
