Create primary key on two fields in table ranks, or at least create
unique constraint on them.
If rid is unique, why do you use two fields as foreign key? "rid" is
enough. You can get rid of "rrank" in table jobtypes.
And one more question - why you don't use the same names in all tables?
"did" instead of "did" "rdid" "jdid" ? It's much easier to create joins
when using the same names.
