Some thoughts on working the store and lifeguard. When and why.
- day 2, work 1st day in the store. Needed to meet Teagan, and you get the knife needed to rescue Maddy cheaper.
- day 3, work 1st day as lifeguard. You need to rescue Lolly to get to Maria. There are a number of paths to Maria, but all require rescuing Lolly.
- day 4, work 2nd day in the store. Handing in the beercase you found in the lifeguard tower earns you some money and points. You can work the 2nd day as lifeguard, but it is not really a good idea as you preferably need strength 9 while rescuing Sandy. If you have 8 or less rescuing her costs 1 stamina and points with Pamela. Better leave it for day 5. You can also go downtown for the gym and be back for the store at 17.00. Needing to be back at 16.00 for lifeguard means you have to skip other things, like visiting the clinic and discovering the shortcut to the beach.
- day 5, work 2nd day as lifeguard. Rescue Sandy and earn some more points with Pamela. It's also easier to go to the downtown gym for the second time on day 5. You want that to get to gym day 3 and be able to invite Chantelle or Francine to the gym. Buying the gym membership alone doesn't get you that.
- day 6, go to the gym for the third time. You can do lifeguard day 3, but I did not find it worth it for the moment as it only gets you Pamela. In the same time you can do two girls downtown.
