"These jobs are asking me to work fifteen hours a day with minimum wages. This is a scam…" Lex groaned.
Lex had been job hunting for the past thirty minutes and all jobs he found were asking him to work for more than 12 hours.
Lex now realized why the previous owner of the body was so depressed. The poor guy had people coming after him due to the debt and the fake case.
"I would rather go back to my job of being a cashier at Ballmart." Lex sighed. At least he got AC and a free lunch at his previous job.
After scrolling some more, Lex decided to search for some jobs using the filter option.
"Are you a boy or a girl?" When Lex saw the options on both sides, his eyes widened. "If you choose girls, there are over a thousand offers but if you choose boy, the number barely rises to two hundred!"
Despite wanting to choose the girl option, Lex proceeded with the boy one. The second option asked whether he was under twenty or not.
Once he chose the yes option, the third option appeared.
"Are you comfortable working with the same gender?" Lex narrowed his eyes. The question was kind of suspicious. "I am getting some bad vibes. It's better to press no and play safe here."
Lex answered a bunch of other questions, some of which were bizarre and were better kept hidden from others.
After applying the filters, only seventy or so jobs remained. Lex once again began his job hunting and to his surprise, a few interesting jobs appeared.
"I can work as a model for a pillow company. The job pays above minimum wage and only requires me to be present there for two to three hours a day."
Lex was about to put the job on his list when he noticed one detail. The shop was actually a body pillow shop.
One of their requirements was that the person must be comfortable with naked two-dimensional characters printed on pillows. Another requirement was that the applicant needed to know how to make lewd expressions.
'I will put you right above the p*rnstar job…'
Lex started scrolling through the jobs; only ten more jobs remained before he knew it.
"Hmm, a food tester for a three-star restaurant. Though I might have to eat some toxic food at this job, the pay is quite nice. There's also a hospital nearby so I don't have to worry about my…" his voice suddenly trailed off.
The food restaurant only covered 50% of his medical bills. Knowing the health care services available in his country, this was a pretty risky job.
Lex sighed as he reached the last three jobs.
One of them was as a cartoon designer. This one was scrapped since Lex only specialized in stick figure drawings.
The second job was as a housekeeper. This one could work well so Lex put it in the high tier, which at the moment, consisted of only one job.
"Hmm, a job as a full-time butler? I probably shouldn't… the pay is five times the minimum wage per day?!"
Lex almost choked on his own saliva. Someone was willing to pay him that much money for just being a butler?!
'Wait, because this world is slightly more advanced, the prices here are higher. Not to mention that I have a huge debt on my head.' Lex debated.
He also wondered whether there were some serious cons attached to the job. Perhaps the employer was a pervert…
"Wait, I will be a butler for a rich loaded woman? She's almost like a noblewoman you might find in a fantasy world."
Though Lex didn't find many details on the employer, it was confirmed that she was a rich woman. Furthermore, she had a huge house where the butler would be staying.
Lex was sold. He would be happy to be her butler no matter how the woman looked. It was not every day you encountered a sugar mommy who was looking for a butler.
"Wait, the minimum requirements state that the applicant should either not have an ability or have one below 2.4 level. This is getting a bit suspicious all of a sudden…"
Lex decided to note down the address and manually go to give a review. He didn't trust online websites not to scam someone like him.
"All right. I should consider searching for some sugar mommies." Lex muttered before entering the filters once again.
Having a sugar mommy was a dream for people like him. Not only was he in debt, his living conditions were poor as well.
Living in a big house would be a high-level upgrade.
But soon after putting the filters, Lex closed the site shut.
'I should not have chosen the female option. Those images are not going to get out of my mind anytime soon…'
Lex had wondered what type of jobs the female option would land him. That had been his biggest mistake of the day.
Some men had gotten a little… creative with what they wanted.
'I will go to this address tomorrow. Hopefully, I don't encounter a mad scientist hell-bent on experimenting with human bodies.' Lex silently prayed.
He looked at the address he had saved one last time before deciding to eat dinner. It took him five minutes to boil some water and cook his instant noodles.
'May I get a sugar mommy tomorrow.' He thought while lying on the bed.
Lex closed his eyes and went to sleep. Unfortunately, one of his nemesis chose this time to show up.
*Zzzzzz*
A buzzing sound echoed in his ears.
Lex immediately sat up and glared at his surroundings. He was 99.9 percent sure that it was a mosquito that had caused that noise.
'I won't be able to catch it this way…' Lex realized that if he didn't kill the mosquito, he wouldn't be able to get a good night's sleep.
He didn't want to look sleep-deprived in his job interview the next day.
Lex lay down and pretended to be asleep again. He waited patiently for a few minutes for the mosquito to arrive.
*Zzzz*
As soon as the buzzing noise echoed in his ears, Lex got up like a kung-fu master. He clapped his hands towards the right and killed the mosquito perfectly.
'Years of killing mosquitoes has made me a master of the dao.' Lex smiled and got off his bed.
He washed his hands once to offer some respect to the mosquito he had just killed. Lex got back in his bed and closed his eyes for a good ten hours of sleep.
Barely ten minutes had passed since then when Lex felt the entire house shaking. He first thought that an earthquake had arrived but he was proved wrong by what followed the shuddering.
"Call me when you want!~ Call me when you need!~"
"OH FOR F*CKS SAKE!"
