Departures

Listening

Take your time. Describe the life. I'm just here to listen.

Talk the way you'd talk to a friend. Wander. Change your mind. I'll keep up.

Pull

Occupations are real, from ISCO-08 (the UN/ILO standard, 436 unit groups) and ESCO (European Commission). Real odds are weighted by ILO modelled world employment, 2024.
Pull with no filters and every occupation is a real ISCO-08 title. Add a filter (a place, a field, a mood, anything) and the board switches to imagining: it composes lives to fit the overlap of your filters, each one grounded in a real ISCO major group and marked ✦ imagined, never passed off as a catalogued fact.
