Staff management can be accessed from any PC from the DO-er App.

As you progress in levels, more staff is unlocked. The following is a list of available staff and their stats:

Staff is essential in running your shop and should pretty much be hired as soon as available.

Leveling Up your staff

While high, staff gains experience for each action they take (making a sale, handing out freebies, restocking something, etc.) It is imperative to make sure staff has access to smokes, either by being handed them manually (talk: "Smoke this") or better by just placing a bunch of smokes into their inventory. Note that they cannot smoke packaged smokes, only individual smokes. They will automatically smoke if they are becoming sober.

Each staff has different potential in different roles, and since experience is gained slowly and increases the salary per skill point spent, one should spend some time thinking where they want that employee to work longterm, before randomly assigning skillpoints.

A great example is "BOB" who is the earliest available staff to be able to man security. However, his security potential in the long term is abysmal with a starting stat of 0. So a great strategy would be to place him onto security but spend his skill points into promotion or merch instead. This way, once better security is available (Steve & Wayne), he can be used according to his strengths without wasting precious skill points and money.

Recommended positions. These are my recommended positions and quantities for each role and staff member based on their individual potential as well as alternative staff strengths and the general job stat benefit. (E.g. having a 1 stat merch manager is a waste due to diminishing returns in that position)

Payment

Staff get paid once every real life hour.

Assigning skill points to a staff member on a role they aren't working on or will work on in has no benefit. Instead it's a gigantic waste of money. For example, applying skill points beyond security on Wayne will waste tens of thousands of dollars per hour without any benefit whatsoever.

Resetting & Firing Staff

Resetting staff skills

If you feel like you screwed up and want to reset your staff skills, hit them with a melee weapon. They will run away and lose all acquired levels and skills and can be hired once again after a short period.

Putting a reset staff member on the cash register for a while is a fast way to regain experience.

Firing staff

While every staff member is useful, and eventually all should be employed simultaneously, if you want to temporarily fire a staff member you can do so in the DO-er app on any computer. Staff can be rehired later and will not lose any skill points.

Closing Words

This guide is a WIP. I realize that some of the information can also be found in the Official Guide, however I found it to be unsatisfactory and too surface level in terms of jobs and staff with a lot of information missing, thus this guide. If you found the guide helpful please feel free to rate it appropriately.
