I know I replied back in a different thread with this answer but I wanted to bring up a thread specifically for this.

I myself (possibly others) feel that we should be able to use any job ability from any career as long as we have CPs for that career and made it to a level where a job ability was present. I.E. I have enough levels in the medical field whereas I have at least one job ability (more actually). I trained a few days in the politics field and used CPs from the career to lower bail on various people. Now, let us suppose I wanted to go back to military so I can level and get a job ability. If I still have CPs in medical and politics why can I not use them? I did the job. Just because I am not in that field anymore does not mean I forgot what I "Learned".

I am in the HVAC field in RL. Now suppose I wanted to work for my cable company. Will I forget my HVAC skill? No, I think not. If I stay out of it I will get rusty but will still retain some knowledge. Let's say I go to the Red Cross and take a first aid class. Does that mean since I am in the HVAC field I will not know anything about basic first aid?

I feel that if I train 100 CPs in the medical field, 100 in politics, 100 in construction (after I reach a level whereas I have a job ability), and now I want to go to military I should be able to use those CPs as needed and not have to wait until I go back to those careers. I think it would make wars more interesting also as others may have some medical points and others have the hideout repair ability with CPs also. It can make a 3 or 4 person gang formidable against a 6 to 8 person gang if they have a variety of abilities and points to use.

What does the rest of the AL community think about being able to use points from other careers. Please give reasons as to yes or no if you feel obligated. At least the negative responses as I and maybe others would like to know why you may think something good like this deserves a no answer. THanks all.
