The machines

AutoReivs — service androids performing nearly all labour in the domed city of Romdo.

What people do all day

The council issues you an occupation, a residence, a partner and a duty to be productive. Vincent's assigned job is disposing of AutoReivs that malfunction. Nobody chose any of it, and the city considers the arrangement a kindness.

Pattern

Allocated labour — A system decides what you will do, and people comply — sometimes willingly.

Note

The bleakest allocation on the site because the allocator is benevolent and the citizens are comfortable. Romdo hands out purpose the way a utility hands out water.
