Hey. My name's Rude. I'm looking for work.
[ It might have taken a couple of beers to muster the courage to post to the network, if the level 3 bar scene behind him is any indication. There's the steam and hiss of frying noodles, the glow of signs advertising other brands of alcohol, and a low murmur of general conversation. The bar he walked into might not be inside the red light district proper, but you wouldn't have to walk far to reach it.
What can he say? It feels a lot more like home. ]
Got a few practical skills. I can fix things. Move things. Done a lot of work guarding things. And people.
[ God, this is hard. How do you sell yourself without revealing that you worked for the evil megacorp? How do you even talk to a camera without hating every moment of it? He pauses to swig a mouthful of beer. ]
...doesn't have to be permanent. One-offs are fine, if someone needs help with something quick. I can, uh...generate chroma too. If needed. [ He pauses, searching for words. ] Oh - I can operate a helicopter too, if that's useful.
...again, it's Rude. [ Another pause, another drink. ] And before you ask, yeah. I've heard the joke before.

Probably same characteristic jokes you get. I can at least introduce myself as "Jill," though. Figure I'm a bit luckier.

[ And he'd probably leave it at that back home. But no, Rude, remember...you're trying to socialise. ]
Someone else mentioned the Lunar Scientia.

[ Thankfully, Jill's pretty decent at talking for two. ]
For work? Don't know what they offer for people like you and I. I know they employ scientists.

[ He lets the first part go without comment...but yes. Absolutely yes. ]
