Well, this is exciting! I can say with absolute confidence that even if you have been to the Cryptidery, you’ve never seen me. If you’ve ever walked past at night and seen lights flashing around, inside or out, that’s probably me. I guess there’s a couple of creatures it may be too, but I don’t think you’d see their enclosures from the road. Of course, no one’s ever snuck around the back parking lot at night… I never, ever have to go back there and shine my lights on any local teenagers… right?
I know this internet thing isn’t the same as meeting in person, but I never got to meet visitors when we were open, so this is pretty neat. Everyone’s always talking about how so much has changed this year, with everything being closed and whatnot. But it’s pretty much been business as usual for me.
My job is mostly building and repairs. I get the habitats running the way Maria wants them, and then I keep them running. There’s a white board in the office where everyone writes down anything they notice that’s broken, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen it empty. I also keep an eye on some of the more nocturnal creatures. Sometimes I might notice something that the day staff missed. With so many creatures, the work is never ending, but it’s rewarding in its own way.
Let me know if you have any questions about the habitats or anything else. If I don’t know the answer, I’ll ask someone who does.
It seems I’m supposed to go fix Maria’s camera now. I didn’t even know she had one. She read “pics or it didn’t happen” somewhere and took it seriously. I’m not sure if the internet is meant to be taken that seriously.
Have a good day,
Mohammed
