Evening falls?

Why this pops up and ruins a run?

Is that the one where you put Passion at the senior position of Glover and Glover? It did say it represented giving up your dreams, though I know others have been caught off guard by that as well.

I've got this also, it surely a trap? how to get the stable position in Glover then?

You need to get rid of one of the board members. Once that's done your passion will instead be for earning a promotion. Pay attention to the text!

This comes after earning the senior position. You need to either wait for your boss to retire (either by itself or sending a minion to 'solve' the problem) to take over after him and then you'll have a chance at targeting one of the board members.

IMO staying at the senior position is better tho.

It is not what I mean, I already did that. I mean, the job at Glover and Glover require player to keep doing the job because it has the countdown. I mean, is there any chance for us to got job with no card countdown (demote) in Glover and Glover?

No. If you have a "real" job, you have to go to work once in a while or you get in trouble. That's how jobs work.

That said, the top level has a 90 second cooldown, you can fit a painting in before it runs out, and that's the longest you really ever spend on the Work verb when not going to Work at Glover.

Actually the top level has a 100 second cooldown. Takes 50s when not tainted by a scandal, and 60s otherwise. But unfortunately it can draw notoriety and get you permanently fired if already tainted.

Yeah, it is true, I've been fired and try to get other 'proper' job. But, I don't know how. So at the end of the day just do some painting, physical job and beg on the streets. Is there any other 'proper' job after the permanent fired?

You do it once to your manager, and then once you have his job you do it AGAIN to get a board seat. If you put passion in the slot after taking the senior position but before taking out the board member, that is when you get the alternative game over.

Also, as far as making money without the day job goes: Painting can be quite lucrative using notoriety or mysticism, especiay if you upgrade your skill enough for 4 slots. You can also talk to your patrons to get a commission, then work on that with the appropriate lore (Having 6 or higher in each lore means you can always do any commission they ask for) and sell the spintrias they give you.

Only the legacy jobs remain, AFAIK. The detective position also decays, and permanently vanishes after a while, but the Physician, at the cost of not being as profitable (it's always 2 funds for 60s), is permanent, no matter how much you leave it unattended. For that reason it's the legacy I always go for if available.

Which makes sense.

No medical facility is gonna tell a doctor “no you cannot help us today.” When she shows up and offers services.

This just happened to me and it reeeeeally didn't feel good. I thought I had earned the promotion without having to murder the guy. With other end conditions you get a red timer before they actually throw away your run, this was surprising and very frustrating to me.

Red timer ticking down are bad endings. This one is a victory, so it will show in a yellow/gold timer instead. A bit harder to distinguish from the normal white, but still easily noticeable. The in-game texts even warn you of what you're doing (giving up your dreams of immortality do settle down in a mundane life).

Why would you want to be an office drone in a game about starting a cult is beyond me.
