However it can be rolled more when required by working weekends, holidays and overtime.

 Due to the repetitive nature of Profession and because it is rolled daily it is assumed a character is always taking 10 unless otherwise stated by them. (Sometimes you have a good or bad day at work. It happens! Either way the roll is only completed at the end of an 8 hour chunk. Meaning if a player works 12 hours the first day he would roll once and then the second roll would happen after the first 4 hours of work the next day.) Due to the repetitive nature of Profession and because it is rolled daily it is assumed a character is always taking 10 unless otherwise stated by them.
