radioactivism | EVENT #1

[ a serious, clinical-sounding woman's voice will be broadcasting on all radio frequencies sometime in the middle of the afternoon. it starts with a businesslike clearing of her throat. just to make sure she has your attention. ]

Greetings, settlers. I hope you've found yourself comfortable. We have had the... honor of your presence for quite some time now, and the time has come for you to earn your place. In your respective towns, we've placed bulletin boards listing some tasks you may elect to do in exchange for pay and other necessary supplies. While these aren't mandatory... [ there's a slight sneer to her voice here. ] ...we do advise you to select at least one that you are qualified for.

Employer's names and locations can be found on their respective flyers. Please direct all inqueries to them.

[ there's a momentary pause, but the transmission doesn't quite end yet. ]

Please keep in mind that supplies are limited and will come on a first come, first earned basis. Simply put, if you want to survive this environment, there is no leeway for slacking off.

Good luck.
