Random Science Fiction Character Jobs or Occupations

Most people think of themselves in terms of their jobs. "I'm a star pilot." "I'm a xenobotanist." Your characters probably do too. This is a list of jobs/professions/careers which you can give characters in your science fiction story. If you need more than one job for your story (you probably will), just click the button and a new job will appear below. Right now this future/science fiction list is pretty sketchy. You might want to check the much lengthier lists of contemporary jobs or medieval/fantasy jobs as well. Many of the contemporary jobs (perhaps with a futuristic twist) can be used for futuristic/science fiction stories as well. If you have ideas for futuristic jobs to add to this list, please e-mail me at: julia at juliahwest.com
