Habits

Blue Collar Tradesman : Jay is good with his hands and typically finds employment as a tradesmen; often construction work depending on where he can find a job
Tinkerer : Call it being thrifty or just being broke so often that you're more accustomed to making it work rather than doing without - Jay's the guy that collects the broken cast-offs that people don't want and fixing them up. Whether it's fixing someone's carburetor for a lift somewhere or repairing someone's dryer for a load of laundry, he likes to help people and pay his own way with things.

United Salvage : Jay started working at the United Salvage Yard a few months ago, helping to clear the place up and do some of the work that Old Man Johnson and his Boyz (tm) either couldn't handle or didn't want to.
