I mean data snatchs, wetwork, bank heists, etc. etc. whatever.

How many runners out there, read the news, get info from their own contacts and make their own jobs as opposed to waiting around for the fixer to call?

I wish all crews did this. It's a pet peeve of mine that no runner crews I've played with, even some of the most talented ones, did not capitalise on their strengths like this to get the more lucrative jobs.
