Efficient definitely has no effect at all on jobs! It's very specifically a tool for tasks, not for rolls that abstract many tasks. Jobs involve large numbers of time factors that are wholly independent of worker skill, notably wait times for clients, processes, work-related shopping and sales, etc. It isn't as if, say, a freelance jeweler with Efficient (Jeweler) can make buying gems and metal, setting adhesives, traveling to the bazaar, and selling the final product go any faster. There are vanishingly few jobs where one time-dependent skill defines the whole of what goes on. The fact that the job roll is against a specific skill isn't meant to suggest that's the only skill that matters . . . most jobs are defined by templates with many skills, and the job roll just uses the iconic skill for meta-game simplicity. At best, a kind GM might say "Efficient helps about 10% of what you do, so go ahead and add 2% to monthly income."
