SURVIVAL: Weekly death jobs
Ethan Cole is twenty-six, broke, alone, and one missed rent payment away from losing the last place he can still call home. When a job listing with no requirements and impossible pay appears on his phone, desperation pushes him to accept without thinking.
At midnight, his life is no longer his own.
A system drags him into jobs that should not exist, assigns him roles no one would willingly take, and gives him one condition for survival: follow the rules. One week he is driving a truck through a desert road that lies and watches. Another, he is locking supermarket doors at the wrong second or standing under fluorescent lights while something waits on the other side of a security camera. Sometimes he bakes bread while pretending not to hear footsteps in spilled flour. Sometimes he learns that some entities remember him even after the shift ends.
Surviving a job does not mean escaping it.
The Weekly Occupational Job System does not allow refusal, only compliance or transfer, and every completed assignment unlocks something more invasive, more personal, and more permanent. The rules are not arbitrary. They are written in the mistakes of people who did not survive long enough to warn anyone else.
As Ethan struggles to maintain a normal life in New York while spending his nights obeying instructions that defy reality, he begins to understand the truth behind the system.
It is not training workers.
It is conditioning survivors.
And the moment you try to quit, the job follows you home.
