Class LotEmployment

A lot employment is a job that a Person executes somewhat perpetually. A person with a LotEmployment does not live on a Lot or in a Household, but instead either works at their lot employment or "leaves the city" through an TinyLife.Actions.BeAwayFromLotEmploymentAction. Lot employments can be added to lots using Employments or to a map using MapWideEmployments.
