Citizen
A citizen is a general member of the working class, the sorts of people who make the world go around. This can include simple blue collar manufacturing, resource extraction, or farming work, working in the service sector or as part of the corporate bureaucracy, or for this not averse to risk, making a life for themselves in frontier space. Citizens work for a truly diverse array of employers, but can be found in nearly any society that hasn't fallen, or deliberately limited itself to feralism and a pre-industrial level of technology.
