#TODO Could use a better name, especially since this was written pre-covid and now 'essential employee' has a strong connotation that's not related to this kind of worker.

Abbreviated: SEE

An SEE is a type of employee that came about after the Intelligence Wars. They perform small, almost always repetitive, tasks for government or company functions. These are tasks that were performed by computers but after the Intelligence Wars were considered too susceptible to AI Infiltration. A collection of SEEs is referred to as a SEE Farm and is interacted with like a computer.

Governments and companies almost never pay SEEs directly. Instead, for as long as they remain employed, their housing and wellbeing are paid for in full. This takes form as apartment complexes with built in services free for residents. It isn't the highest class living but it will provide a better living that nothing. Not having to compete in the extreme capitalisms is incentive enough to pull in the sheer number of people required in an SEE Farm.
