How to unlock the Working Overtime achievement in Thief - Definitive Guide
There are two clients and each of them will give you three different jobs:
Vittori who is located at the Sirens Rest in Southquarter - Riverside gives you the jobs
- Happy Medium (job available after chapter two)
- The Carnal Connoisseur (job available after chapter four)
- Sideshow Attraction (job available after chapter five)
Ector who is located at his Workshop in Stonemarket (Ector's Emorium) gives you the jobs
- Hand Tailored (job available after chapter one)
- Silence is Golden (job available after chapter three)
- Heartbroken (job available after chapter six)
If you are having troubles with any of these jobs I can recommend this link: http://guides.gamepressure.com/thief/guide.asp?ID=24029
This is a well written guide with pics which should solve your Problems :)
The achievement should pop right after completing the last Job.
Ector becomes available (in Stonemarket) after accepting the Machinations side mission from Basso. This can be collected from Basso at the Crippled Burrick after completing Chapter 1. Follow the Machinations quest, it will lead you to Ector and the first of his side missions. There are 3 side missions for Ector; the second and third missions aren't available until after completing Chapters 3 and 6 respectively of the main story.
Vittori becomes available in the South Quarter after accepting the Carnivalesque side mission from Basso - this is available after completing Chapter 2. This quest will lead you straight to Vittori and his first mission. You may want to hold off starting this until after Chapter 4 as the main story will take you into the South Quarter and straight to the tavern where Vittori is based anyway. Vittori's second and third quests are available after completing Chapters 4 and 5 of the main story respectively.
The trophy drops after you complete the final mission out of these 6 - for me it actually dropped after completing the heist but before returning the artifact to Ector.
Client Jobs are essentially smaller side quests that can be found throughout The City as you roam around in between each Chapter or after completing the main Story. There are a total of six Client Jobs, three stemming from two different clients: Ector and Vittori.
You will first be able to visit Ector after Chapter 1 when you meet Basso at his shop. Accept all of Basso's quests, and one of them will be to visit Ector at his workshop. Alternatively, Vittori is located at on the upper floor of The Siren's Rest Inn which is located in the Southern Quarter of The City near the Docks. You will first come to the Southern Quarter on your way to the start of Chapter 3.
Below, you can find a list and brief description for all six Client Jobs.
- Hand Tailored (Ector) - This job requires you to break into a tailor's shop and recover a mechanical hand.
- Silence is Golden (Ector) - This job requires you to steal another mechanical item, this time, a voice box.
- Heartbroken (Ector) - This last job from Ector requires you to steal a mechanical heart.
- Happy Medium (Vittori) - This short job requires you to recover Vittori's stolen skull.
- The Carnal Connoisseur (Vittori) - This job requires you to recover one of Vittori's prized attractions, the wonderfully named 'Octopuss'.
- Sideshow Attraction (Vittori) - This job requires you to free Vittori's love from the watch guard post where she has been detained as a 'streetwalker'.
Once all six Client Jobs have been successfully completed, the achievement will unlock. Remember that there are collectibles during each Job to be retrieved!

Once all six Client Jobs have been successfully completed, the achievement will finally unlock. Remember that there are collectibles during each Job to be retrieved!
There is a total of six possible Client Jobs available to you through two different people (kinda small we know) in Thief. They can be found in the two different parts of the city as shown on your City map from these icons. You will not be able to complete all of the Client Jobs until you've completed Chapter 6.
Client Jobs differ from Basso's Jobs, in which instead of simple grab and fetch quests, each Client Job consists of a mini-level, together with its own set of collectibles and Thieving Challenges that you can collect and complete. Because of this, it is highly recommended that in addition to completing these Jobs, you will want to complete most if not all of the Thieving Challenges that each mission lists out for you. This works in your favor too as these Challenges usually involve very little challenge as the areas are so small.
Ector
Hand Tailored
Silence is Golden
Heartbroken
Vittori
Happy Medium
The Carnal Connoisseur
Sideshow Attraction
Three of them are given by Vittori (the fat aristocrat):
- Happy Medium (available after Chapter 2)
- The Carnal Connoisseur (available after Chapter 4)
- Sideshow Attraction (available after Chapter 5)
The remaining three can be obtained from the inventor Hector , who hangs out in his workshop:
- Hand Tailored (available after Chapter 1)
- Silence is Golden (available after Chapter 3)
- Heartbroken (available after Chapter 6)
Without a full set of tools, as well as without rope arrows, there is no point in taking it on.
