Upgrades & Passes
Chef Skill as the late bottleneck, six staff passes with store Robux prices, Permanent 2x Money, timed multipliers, and group rewards.
What this page covers
Chef Skill, the six staff Game Passes with store prices, free Happy Chef and Throw Bait boosts, Permanent 2x Money, timed money multipliers, Instant Money packs, and the Like + Join group timer. Staff passes cost Robux. Free play still works.
Chef Skill
Chef Skill shows as dollars per second of fish-to-sushi throughput. Early on you can chase merges first. Later, if Skill lags, fish pile up, boats feel unaffordable, and AFK staff cannot finish the loop.
Early loop pacing is on the beginner guide. Boat Cash needs a kitchen that can keep up. Free Happy Chef sits in the boosts table below.
Employees pass table
The Employees board sells six staff passes: Cashier 29 Robux (collects money), Fish Trader 49 (deposits at a target Fish Value), Deck Hand 79 (collects fish), Sous Chef 149 (doubles chef skill), Greeter 299 (customers pay 1.5x), and Manager 499 (twice as many fish per catch).
| Employee | R$ | Effect | Job | Pass ID |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cashier | 29 | Collects money for you | Collect money handoff | - |
| Fish Trader | 49 | Deposits fish at target price | Fish Value auto-deposit | 2058360112 |
| Deck Hand | 79 | Collects fish for you | Collect fish handoff | 2032640355 |
| Sous Chef | 149 | Doubles your chef skill | Chef throughput / second chef | 2061376793 |
| Greeter | 299 | Customers pay 1.5x more | Customer pay boost | 2058492091 |
| Manager | 499 | Twice as many fish per catch | Catch volume | 2032454370 |
Prices on the Employees board match the list above (Cashier 29, Fish Trader 49, Deck Hand 79, Sous Chef 149, Greeter 299, Manager 499). Cashier still needs a Pass ID fill-in. Double-check the live price before you buy.

AFK still needs Chef
Buying every staff pass and leaving collectors running does not fix a starved chef. If Skill stays flat for hours, you come back on the same fish tier with a full kitchen backlog.
FAQ
Which pass should I buy first?
Buy the pass that fixes your worst handoff. Deck Hand if Collect fish slows you down, Cashier if Collect money does, Fish Trader if you hate watching the value board, Sous Chef if the kitchen backs up.
What Fish Trader target should I set?
Common targets are 1.2, 1.3, or 1.5. Higher targets wait longer. Some players leave the pass off and deposit by hand at peaks.
Is Permanent 2x Money a staff pass?
No. The floor pad sells Permanent 2x Money for 12 Robux. Staff passes are the six employee roles listed above.
Can free players finish without passes?
Yes. Staff are Robux helpers. Hire, merge, cash boats, Chef Skill, and the group timer cover the full loop.
Why am I stuck after buying every pass?
Collectors do not replace Chef Skill. If $/sec lags, fish pile up and boat Cash never shows. Keep buying Chef Skill even while AFK staff run.
What are Happy Chef and Throw Bait?
Free timed boosts from the HUD. Happy Chef gives 2x chef skill for 1 minute. Throw Bait gives 2x faster fishing for 1 minute. Each needs 60 minutes to cool down after Use Now.
Does Instant Money respect money multipliers?
Yes. If Permanent 2x Money or a timed money burst is active, Instant Money packs pay more Cash. Buy the pack while the multiplier is on if you are spending Robux on it.
