He’s a field reporter. He goes out into the world to write about stuff. If he’s gone for three weeks working on a story, that’s what it takes.
He’s also super smart and super fast, so he can write the story in a small fraction of the time as most reporters.
So, as Superman, he flies to where the problem is, solves it, then writes about it as Clark Kent.
Same thing Spider-Man does, except a big part of it is also getting pictures of himself as Spider-Man doing the problem solving.
These types of roles are extremely limited in modern news. They often involve reporting from within active war zones e.g. all the journalists killed by Israel. You don’t just say you’re going somewhere and fuck off the org will want to know where you are and what work you’re doing so they’re not just paying you to fuck about the countryside.
There’s often references to his flakiness. Its a common trope in various series that he’ll here someone in trouble and excuse himself to go save them. Sometimes it just shows him “accidentally” dropping a pen, reaching under the table to get it, and using his super speed to zip off and save someone.
There was an open window and they’re on a high floor.
Though it was something I was thinking about. Could he somehow use his super breath to replace any displaced air? Does the same super-shielding effect that keeps his costume from get torn in every fight also keep him from being affected by air resistance and thus cause less disturbance when he’s moving at super speeds?
Its all comic book magic, of course, but interesting things to think about.
Really? I don’t think he’ll let anybody die just because there wasn’t a convenient phone booth around to get rapid changed in.
I mean, I dont know about you but work will start to ask questions if Im taking a piss break every 10-15 minutes.
He’s a reporter, I think he has a little latitude to be away from his desk for a few minutes, even days or weeks at a time.
Any reporters want to confirm this?
Otherwise Im thinking about a career change.

People would notice at my work.
You dont have super speed.
The physics of that speed and the air pressure means he’d be literally blowing people’s clothes off in the office.

Shit happens. As long as he comes back nude, no one is the wider. (Taps head.)
