The position of lead for the Pawn shop got more interest than I expected. Thank you to all who sent in their applications! Had to make a choice so we will have two proposals up for community review. Both have quite different ideas to them so, please, feel free to post your comments and questions. I will leave the two threads open for a week before making a decision.

24 hour Pawn shop

By: Andrew Flint (Matthewpalmer2 Resident)
Type: Official Business - Pawn Shop

BACKGROUND: As a leader I will begin working on getting people there regularly and start having things like a stolen good acquirer, have things like part of the underground trades go through the shops. Hold regular staff meetings and so one. As the manager Andrew Flint(My avatar) will personally meet each employee when hired on. Give them the rules of the business and what is expected. He will also have weekly meetings with required attendance(IC work related penalties, like cut pay.) I will/would like to have someone at the store as much as often to also bring a bit more of an rp to the armed citizen parts, (filling out a form*just rp based not anything to touch the actual system in place*) The purchase of the gun, and things like that. Make it more rp related to get your firearm. I would also like to add a couple more display items like a cellphone, knife and maybe even a mesh /prim pepper spray. Andrew is a cruel man but he is all about money, he is greedy running the business is a way to make money and he would want it to succeed.

UNIQUE: It will stand out as it is by making people remember it is there. not many people remember the Pawn shop is on the sim. At the moment it is a good place to hide to build work hours. I want it more than that. I want it to be a rp point. Broke your phone, go the the pawn shop and buy a new one, need a knife the pawn shop has that.

EXPERIENCE: The personal qualities I bring is rl experience of management and 12 years or rp. I have a desire to see the Pawnshop become a good roleplay point and see people here. To see people rping here.

IDEAS: Each new rper who joins as staff will have a meeting with Andrew as the manager. Assist Managers will be required to also meet the new worker. I would also Have someone on the main street calling out telling them about what you can buy and sell(excluding the illegal stuff of course.) and also try and host events like "sales" Larger payout days and so on.

OTHER: The grand reopening would be a huge sale on all the items *except the guns* everything 85% off with random 90% specials popping up through out the day. Also a barbecue with free hotdogs and hamburgers for everyone.
