On Skyrat Station, your job defines a little bit about your character and who they are akin to a class. Every job gets a different and unique set of equipment as well as access. Keep in mind that you should restrict each character to two skill sets, such as engineering and security, service and medical, or science and medical. More can be read about this in rules. Most of these are meant to be comedic in nature, rules take priority over funny meme.

Command

Head of Security 		Make sure your team is doing their job and is upholding the law. Protect the station against your enemies and look cool as shit while doing so. Watch in helpless silence as your officers beat each other to death over petty squabbles. Politely remind the warden that breaking a prisoner's kneecaps over a minor incident is against company records. Die in the first shootout you get into. aVery Hard

Watch the prisoners build baseball bats and hatchets to stare menacingly at you from the walls. Watch your officers refuse to process prisoners manually and dump their corpses in front of your office. Sip your coffee with a sigh. bHard

Detective 		The detective is both a useless and incredibly useful job. The problem is, anyone can point a scanner at something and match the DNA, but not everyone has access. Typically people will ask you to a crime scene to scan everything around it and match up stuff. Your secondary job is to interrogate criminals who break the law in a high capacity. aMedium
