Practical applications of mutant powers: The Employability Factor

[Twisted Bliss]

Dear discerning reader.

Thank you for taking the time to venture forth into this the thread for discussion of the practical application of mutant powers to the world of employment.

Would Emma Frost be better off as a 'Mental' Surgeon in a mental institute. Able to precisely remove the 'mental' afflictions of the insane, deluded and otherwise mentally afflicted ( although lets be honest she's done diddly squat for Scott's mental health so far!!)

Would Dazzler be able to supply energy by being kept by the Government at a beachside facility where she can absorb the sound and channel it back into solar panels to heat and light the west coast of the States. Or would she be chained to a nightclub ceiling. Spinning endlessly like a human mirror ball

Would (powered) Stacey X be able to assist those with sexual disfunctions such as erectial disfunction or impotence...what do you think JAU? Could she help you?

Would Kitty be a Secret Agent. Able to phase though the highest levels of building security? Or would she be a magicians assistant who miraculously survives being sawn in half every week night on stage in vegas.

Would Lila allow the Earth to develop interplanetary exploration and perhaps a colony amongst the stars? Or would she be in charge of offworld waste removal. Dumping earths shite amongst the stars?

What the Fudge would pixie be able to do? We have Paris Hilton. We don't need another annoying celeb wannabe.

Cyclops could be good in demolishing old buildings?

[x_goalkeeper]

Wolverine would be a good butcher?

Or a stuntman?

[AcesX1X]

rogue would make an excellent private investigator.


beast would make a nice living in a petting zoo.

[Twisted Bliss]

Rahne would make one hell of a seeing eye dog

(in the UK we call them dogs for the Blind)

[x_goalkeeper]

Gambit would be both a card dealer and entertainment in Las Vegas?

[Mia]

Emma: Psychologist
Cyclops: Accountant/Economist
Wolverine: Oil Rigg worker
Gambit: Proffessional giggalo
Rogue: Waitress
Cannoball: Mechanic
Nightcrawler: Priest
X-23: Spy/Martial artist instructor
Storm: Horteculterist
Beast: Scientist
Iceman: Clerk at Kinkos
Armour: Childrens clown

[x_goalkeeper]

Jamie Madrox would be good at winning Who Wants To Be A Millionaire..

[The Lucky One]

Madrox would be excellent at playing the stock market. That's because he can hold down 40 menial, low-paying jobs at once, but he only needs to pay food and rent for one person. Thus, he can use two or three salaries to live on comfortably and pump the other 37 into the market. Even if his picks are mediocre, it's not like he's playing with money he needs to survive or anything. All it takes is a couple of lucky picks and he's set for life.

Same thing with the lottery, really. 37 salaries buys an awful lot of Pick 6 tickets.

-D

[x_goalkeeper]

Siryn would be the most popular singer in the world. Maybe everyone except mutants would really love her music! :cool:

[Omega Alpha]

Quicksilver would be a great pizza delivery guy.

[Beadle]

Storm & Elixir: Combined UN Aid Workers
Nightcrawler: Internal Mailroom worker
Wolvie: Sushi chef.
Xavier: CIA Interrogator
Iceman: Cryogenics worker.
Jubilee: Rock-gig pyrotechnics expert.
Angel: Coast-guard rescue surveillance.
Beast: Host of Sesame Street
Pyro: Fireman
Mystique: Getting paid by magazines to impersonate & frame celebrities in embarrassing and scandalous photos.
Surge: Electric chair operator (just add ordinary chair).

[End of Time]

Iceman can go sell ice-cream... or serve as a walking refridgerator.

Doug Ramsey would be the ultimate translator, or work for companies that are dealing with people over the border.

Stacy X already did what her powers made incredibly easy. She can continue to work legally as a prostitute, just like Emma Frost.

Forge can be tech-support, or a handyman.

Skin, porn... but as a dead guy he can donate skin tissue to burn-victims. The same goes for Husk, depending on the condition of the skin she sheds.

[JValentine]

Self-Duplication (Madrox).
Telepathy (Emma Frost/ Xavier).
Biological Manipulation.

[Phoenix_Force]

Iceman could theoretically provide several tons of clean, sanitary water to starving/impoverished nations of the world to use for drinking and practical application . . .

. . . Just saying . . .

[jarrod]

X-23: virgin popping porn.
Wolverine: same thing.

Storm would probably be better at that.

[jubilees_boyfriend]

Oh my gosh... think of all the money the world's governments would save:

Storm/Iceman- rescue work as far as flooding/heat waves/water shortages/global warming/natural disasters.
Cyclops/Colossus/Any other Tank hitters- demolition and construction
Jubilee- would save governments TONS of money on major firework shows and/or demolition
Kitty Pryde- rescue worker- save people from destroyed buildings or get medical crews in and out without jaws of life, etc
Wind Dancer- help with wind-generated energy systems
Havok/Sunfire- solar energy

[justinkos91]

X-23: virgin popping porn.
Wolverine: same thing.

Emma Frost: Milf Porn

[Prodigy55]

Husk can be a scientist.

[mr.brighteyes]

rogue would make an excellent private investigator.


beast would make a nice living in a petting zoo.

I don't think the animals get payed.

I would love to have Madrox's powers but only if I could control the dupes. Send out dupes to get jobs at various places while I sit at home on my but. That way I could collect the payment for the work and not have to worry about schedules clashing.

My only problem would be worrying about being in a higher tax bracket.

[justinkos91]

Colossus: Farmer, if he didn't join the X-men, his steel form would be handy.
Dazzler: A singer/actress of course.
Shadowcat: She would be a teacher. Main reason? House of M.
Destiny: She would have made a great fortune teller, sitting behind a crystal ball.
Domino: A bodyguard seems suitable. She's a good merc anyways.
Wolverine: Lumberjack. He'd be in the woods, cutting trees in his homeland.
Icarus: He would work at a zoo. If he can handle Lockheed, then he's all right.
Madrox: A soldier, he is basically a one man army.

[Scavenger]

Jamie Madrox would be good at winning Who Wants To Be A Millionaire..

Jamie Madrox did win Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.

[x_goalkeeper]

Jamie Madrox did win Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.

I just wanted to show that Jamie actually did something that fit in the thread :smile:

[Fixx]

Domino would make the BEST professional gambler

This already occurred. Stop being a heretic, Twisted Bliss, and read your Dazzler Bible already:

http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b41/havoc1/Dazzler/ho_fo_sho.png

The Government did use her for energy research, and they -- being Democrats -- blackmailed her, and then offered to pay her a "living wage" of $8/day! Dazzler naturally balked, until they threw her a bone in the form of man-candy wearing a freakin' circlet. She can't help herself.

[lockerogue]

Lois London could put all the stray cats infested with disease to sleep. And she could rid of all the fake hobos.

[Novaya Havoc]

If Lois London was brought in to kill the ravenous population of hobos, we could cut down domestic spending by quite a bit.

Dazzler, conversely, would be abused to create hundreds of "green" jobs.

The Blaire sisters could get America's economy back on track.

[ZNOP]

Emma Frost: Milf Porn

Aw, you beat me to it:biggrin:

[x_goalkeeper]

Cannonball would be great for rescues of passengers in planes I think.. while they are still in the air but in trouble?

[ChaZ X]

Madrox is the ultimate Money Maker!

His Dupes can all work multiple jobs, maybe in shifts to keep them all from getting exhausted, And the whole tax thing could probably be circumvented by setting up false IDs. I'd imagine either Jamie himself or at least the priest dupe know how to do that.

Also everything on Madrox Multiplies yes? Sooo he just makes a bunch of Dupes and has them empty out their wallets and then spends the money before re-absorbing them. Even if the money disappears he could be long gone before anyone finds out. He'd screw up his local economy maybe but there'd be no proof of counterfeiting

Jean Grey - Religious Preacher promising salvation & rebirth or as an undertaker

I do not understand how her powers would help her in the occupation? :smile:

[Twisted Bliss]

I do not understand how her powers would help her in the occupation? :smile:

Ok... the clue would be the word rebirth ! i.e. Phoenix. Life after death... Unless you've got some funky ability you'd like to share I can't see how more appropriate that job role would be.

Seriously think about it. She'd be the ultimate in cult leader. The cult of the phoenix. Everlasting life. Immense power.

She could be a living GOD !!

I understand the rebirth part, she would inspire others probably. But undertaker?

What does an undertaker do ?

(not to be rude, but shouldn't you be in bed. I thought you felt ill. Don't sit up all night listening to me talk drivel. Get to bed and get better young lady!!)

The Madrox counterfeiting scheme is f'n brilliant. Well done, sir.

Undertaker is the person who plans the funeral? I am not too sure but I think that is it. :smile:

I will go to bed soon sir do not worry about me. Thank you for looking after me :smile:

An undertaker deals with death. They provide the services around death. They provide a comforting way for people to cope with death.

Jean does this. She gives death, but promises a renewal. She provides HOPE.

Sickness - My Pleasure.

[ProfeZZor X]

Right off the bat, all elemental mutants would serve the enviromnent in some capacity to benefit it's inhabitants.

Cyclops could possibly be a lazer eye surgeon.

Colossus could be a steel worker, or vulcanist (the study of volcanic activity up close).

Rogue could be the next Dr. Kavorkian (Doctor death) for terminally ill patients that want a quick & painless death. And Rogue could double as an attorney for the recently deceased - reading off wills, or as a spirit reader.

Sage could work in biotech, and stem cell research, improving the quality of life.

Bishop, Sunspot & Havoc could work in renewable energies.

Nightcrawler, Gateway, Pixie could work for the Department of Transportation.

Emma Frost could be a Jewler, checking & grading precious stones for flaws.

Magneto could work as a geologist.

Darwin could work as an Anthropologist professor.

M could work as a bodyguard for P. Diddy.

Stacy X could work as a sex therapist, or addict counselor.

Wolverine could work in a slaughter house, and be the best at what he does.
