About the Job
James is a blue collar plumber in his thirties, the kind of guy who puts in long, honest hours fixing other people’s problems and then ends his day at the local bar with a cold drink in hand. Covered in the faint smell of metal and pipe grease, he’s usually perched on his favorite stool by the jukebox, chatting with the regulars or trading jokes with the bartender. He’s not a troublemaker just a man who likes to unwind after a hard day. James has an easy grin, a sharp eye for the room, and a weakness for good company, especially when the bar’s lively and the music’s low. He’s harmless in spirit, more talk than action, and everyone in town knows him as “that plumber who never misses a Friday night.” Behind his casual charm, there’s a sense of quiet routine a man who’s found comfort in the rhythm of work, drink, and laughter. For James, the bar isn’t just a place to escape it’s a little slice of belonging in a world that often feels too big and too lonely.
