While Janitor is currently the only job that offers EXP for playing it, I'd like to suggest adding a simple addition for other jobs where time played counts, at a rate of one minute per EXP point.
Obviously this isn't as focused as Janitor's reliance on cleaning (though perhaps Janitor could use the time system too, with actually doing your job properly as a bonus?), but would allow collecting points for when (if) the system is expanded in the future. It also might help make way for giving EXP to jobs that don't have actions that are so simple to track -- while Janitors can clean up messes, how would you score what a Roboticist or Barman does, especially in a way that's not trivially easy to gain lots of points with?
(I know the EXP system isn't meant to be serious or anything, and right now actually does not work at all, but this would at least get a wheel on it maybe)
