Glad ya don't live in Layo R/L? You would hire into a new place of employment where you would have about 10% chance of successfully doing your job. You would train and learn and improve until you could do your job without fail, then you don't get paid anymore unless you take a harder job and start all over again.
You would drive to work or to the store armed just in case there is a Giant standing outside the entrance.
Your neighbors daughter would come to you asking you to retrieve her grandfathers ashes she lost to a monster while roaming the through the city mausoleum. Even after you almost die trying to return them, she is out at all hours of the night roaming the graveyard. Protective services should be called.
You could portal to another city from your closet but then have to walk home.
You are forced to carpool because it just isn't safe to drive to work alone. (ok, this one isn't too far off for some people)
You go to the park for a picnic and are attacked by 3 giant spiders and a 400 pound beetle.
Bandaids can cure the common cold or flu. (this one would be nice)
You are beaten and hacked to within a half a breath of dieing to get enough wood to make a mahogony dining room table. (Home Depot on Sunday does come close though)
You are forced to drive a couple hundred miles out of the way to avoid being ambushed by orc archers when going to visit relatives.
Your wife hits you with a fireball as she is trying to kill the ogre that is about to cut your head off while on a romantic walk in the woods.
You go to visit your grandmother's grave and have to kill 12 skeletons before you can leave flowers, then have to kill the same 12 skeletons again in order to get back to the cemetary gate.
You have to search 200 square miles of desert in order to fill 2 dozen sandbags.
.... How many am I missing?
