About this game

Funemployed hands you a job card, say, Astronaut or Assistant Manager, and a hand of utterly random trait cards, then dares you to build a convincing pitch for why you deserve the gig. Argue your case for "surprisingly flammable" or "collection of ventriloquist dummies" being exactly the qualifications this job needs, and a rotating judge picks whoever sold it best. There is no wrong combination, only how confidently you can spin one, so quiet people surprise everyone and the loudest arguments do not always win. It scales absurdly well from a tight three-player huddle to a room of twenty, pure improv comedy in card form.
