To get more than six cash-ins per day, or to work one area for longer than a month or two, you’ll probably have to disguise yourself. Your disguise does not have to be complex or expensive; the Fun Center drones will always give you at least a glance, but they’ll only check you out carefully if they’re already suspicious. You can usually get away with simple props like hats and glasses. The trick is to give them something to remember you by, like an unusual hat or shirt, an attitude, a strange facial expression, whatever, then show them the opposite the next time -- young/old, happy/grumpy, smart/stupid, etc. Polarity is the key.
If you are middle-aged, for example, you can go for a young/old duality. First, give them a younger look; cover your balding head with a wig or a baseball cap, and carry a Walkman. Wear a button supporting euthanasia. After a few weeks of that, just when they might begin to notice you, change to the older look. Comb your hair back, and give it a few streaks of grey (drug stores sell special hair paint for this purpose). Wear a button supporting the draft. You might even put sharp stones in your shoes, to keep that youthful spring out of your step. But the very best way to look older is to soak your face in brine for a few hours. Breathe through a straw while submerged. This treatment (immersion in salt water, not breathing through a straw) will dry and harden your skin, giving it that hagged-out look for several days. A copy of Retirement Times under your arm, and you’re all set.
