The five ranks
Every member of staff starts as a Fresher and can be promoted. Promotion costs a multiple of that role’s hire cost and needs a minimum player level.
| Rank | Work speed | Wage | Promotion cost | Player level |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fresher | 80% | ×1 | n/a | 1 |
| Junior | 100% | ×1.6 | 1.5× hire cost | 3 |
| Senior | 125% | ×2.5 | 3× hire cost | 6 |
| Manager | 150% | ×4 | 6× hire cost | 10 |
| Executive | 180% | ×6 | 12× hire cost | 15 |
For a Technician that means $300 to reach Junior, $600 for Senior, $1,200 for Manager and $2,400 for Executive.
The order to hire in
- Technician. The first hire every time. Without one, a bench only works while you are standing at it.
- Shop Assistant (level 2). Carrying devices is the most time-consuming thing you do by hand.
- Front Desk (level 2). Keeps the drop-off queue moving so customers do not time out before they are even checked in.
- Customer Care (level 3). Collects cash at pick-up. Cash that is collected promptly is also cash a thief cannot take.
- Security Guard (level 4). Worth it once the counter regularly holds more than $40. Higher ranks run faster.
- Accountant (level 5). The only role that lowers your bills. Its value grows with the shop, so hire it once rent and marketing are significant.
Lunch, illness and training
Each member of staff takes one lunch break a day. Breaks are staggered, starting a little over a third of the way through the day, so the shop is never empty. A Canteen Cook shortens those breaks.
From day 6, each member of staff has a 6% chance of falling ill on any given day. With ten staff, expect someone to be off most days and plan your bench count around it.
