I'm a fairly big and strong dude. I hate my current job and want to change careers. I think I would be a good goon, like a character Batman beats up before a boss fight in an Arkham game or that Noir detective outsmarts. How does one acquire such a job? I don't see any posting on Indeed.

Keep an ear out for bank robberies, diamond heists, or any other highly organized criminal activity in your neck of the woods. Then, do a little research into what evidence they left behind. Was there a themed calling card? A letter to taunt the authorities? Perhaps a direct callout to Batman? That, my friend, is the work of the person you're going to be gooning for.

After that, it's just a matter of applying yourself.
