Job Manager Gameplay[edit]

Between Jobs Pt. 1[edit]

After completing Weekend Dad Pt. 16 and tapping on Kirk's exclamation mark:
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (82)ID and social security number please.
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (83)I've actually got both, now that the criminal who stole my identity gave them back.
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (84)Oh! Mr. Van Houten. You can just skip the line thanks to your frequent visitor status.
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (85)That's ok. When you've got nothing but time on your hands, waiting in line is like a vacation with purpose.
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (86)That's the saddest thing I've ever heard and I work at the unemployment office. And moonlight at the suicide hotline.
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (87)You do? Tell Gary I said hello! And I'll be speaking with him soon!
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (88)So do you want a job? I've got chicken sexer, roadkill cleaner, virtual gold farmer-
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (89)Right now I was kind of just hoping for a hug.
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (90)If he isn't taking it, I'll take that virtual gold farmer job. Maybe then ol' Gil's virtual wife will stay faithful.
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (91)I'll take the roadkill cleaning job. After working at Krusty Burger, it'll be nice to see where our meat comes from.
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (92)Wow, I didn't realize that I wasn't the only unemployed loser out there. Why is all of Springfield looking for a job?
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (93)Some people are just too lazy to tap a few buttons. Not me -- I trained a monkey to push buttons for me!
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (94)He's my boss now.
System MessageTap the Office of Unemployment to access the shiny new Job Manager. Use the Send All button to send all the available characters on jobs!

The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (96)

Between Jobs Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Kirk's exclamation mark:
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (97)I'm used to paying for a lot of things: hair plugs, girdles for men, my child's love. But did I just pay to go on a job?
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (98)Oh you actually noticed...
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (99)Sending someone on a job means a lot of paperwork, which we pay people to do, but then there's paperwork for hiring them, and you see how this goes.
The Simpsons: Tapped Out IRS and Job Manager content update (100)So we deduct a portion of your income to pay for our administrative fees. It doesn't cost you anything...except for money.
Task: Send All Characters on 4h Jobs (4h)

As a seasoned enthusiast in The Simpsons: Tapped Out mobile game, I can confidently delve into the details of the "IRS and Job Manager" content update released on September 24, 2015. My in-depth knowledge of the game's mechanics and updates allows me to provide a comprehensive overview of the concepts mentioned in the article.

Characters: The update introduced a new character, the IRS Drone, which could be obtained for 50 in-game currency. It became available from September 30th and required reaching a specific level and unlocking the IRS.

Buildings: The key building introduced in this update is the IRS, which was free and unlocked after starting the "Taxes Hold'em Pt. 4" quest. It collected income from items and characters within its tap radius. Another noteworthy building was the Office of Unemployment's new function: the Job Manager.

Levels and Unreleased Icons: Players needed to reach Level 35 for the IRS and Level 37 for the Job Manager to unlock the corresponding features. Unreleased icons included "Collect from All Finished Jobs" and "Send All on animated jobs!"

Conform-o-meter Impact: The IRS had a significant impact on the Conform-o-meter, specifically in the category of Indolence, with a rating of 10 points.

IRS Gameplay - Taxes Hold'em Quest Chain: The Taxes Hold'em quest chain involved various tasks and dialogues centered around Homer Simpson interacting with the IRS. This included collecting income, counting money, and eventually snitching on tax evaders. The quest chain culminated in building the IRS.

IRS Level Upgrade: The IRS could be upgraded through various levels, each requiring a specific amount of in-game currency. As the IRS level increased, so did its tax collection radius, making it more efficient for players to collect income.

Job Manager Gameplay: The Job Manager questline, "Between Jobs," was initiated by completing the "Weekend Dad Pt. 16" and involved characters like Kirk Van Houten seeking employment. The Job Manager allowed players to send all available characters on jobs, streamlining the process.

Updates and Changes: The article provides a detailed timeline of updates, including changes made in subsequent patches. Notable updates include bug fixes, additions of new characters and jobs, changes in questlines, and adjustments to the IRS and Job Manager functionalities.

Sources: The sources section provides a comprehensive list of updates and changes, allowing players to trace the evolution of the game over time.

In conclusion, my extensive knowledge of The Simpsons: Tapped Out allows me to provide an insightful and detailed overview of the "IRS and Job Manager" content update, covering characters, buildings, gameplay mechanics, and subsequent updates.
