who even standardizes troll job names. is there like a list, or does everybody just know what stuff is. impaleozoologists?? really?? gosh learning alternian must be so hard. the "im-" prefix kinda doesn't make any sense!!

yeah the naming conventions have me taking out notebooks and clocking in for class
you and me both! and also pencils and erasers and stuff, and i am trading you some of those mini animal erasers, so that you can have a study buddy while we both get our asses academically handed to us in our Stranglage Class (which is language class for trolls).

Why do you think I'm sticking to human vernacular
indomitable human cultural pride? nah just kidding heheh. swag? it's probably your swag.

Option C: even as she's whispering what I should be speaking and writing I reject it because it sounds fuckin dumb

were frantically taking notes and still flunking every test our study buddies are horribly disappointed in us
my dad threatens to send me to military school if i can't get my grades up and we try to plan our next moves outside a circle k and a matrix-looking dude named rufus offers to let us use his phone booth shaped mystery machine to go back in time and observe the construction of language for ourselves, and we get into all kinds of excellent hijinks,

( Ꮚ‾̀ꈊ ‾̀Ꮚ); < Believe it or not... ( Ꮚ⚀ꈊ⚀Ꮚ) < Phrases like that are less etymologically based!!!! And more...function first! Most Alternian Jobs are military-related...and very literal!!! Saaaaaaay for example...medictator? Someone who makes experienced, seasoned, and high-hit dice decision-making culls on the daily! Who lives, who dies, who gets augmented with sharp 'n pointy prosthetics before tossin 'em back into the fray! Mediculler? Exactly what it sounds like! The one who administers the life-shortening surgeries that keep milita sorts armed 'n ready! ( Ꮚ‾̀ꈊ ‾̀Ꮚ); < The job series yer talkin' up is a freighter-class frigate tier excavationihilist job. You destroy things that make jobs harder for others. Terraforming, resource extraction, all of these are mighty hard with big dead things in the way! ( Ꮚ⚀ꈊ⚀Ꮚ) < So the job of the impaleozoologist is t'drill a BIG HUGE IMPALING HOLE in the sides 'o dead monsters...excavatin' through the bones belongin' t'once titanic, extinct custodian species, such as Gorgonopsia Suckerbeasts, Abyssal Trilobiters, the fearsome giant Anomalocaris Vex, or massive, multi-limbed predatory beasts still kickin'!!!! It's really quite vital, 'specially on older interstellar colony planets that faced mass extinction events, either caused by Alternians, or predating us!!! (ᴗᏊᄒꈊᄒᏊ)ᴗ< Hope that helps?!
