Editing Janitor (section)

==Stellar Patrol, it's not a job, it's an adventure!==
You have the most <s>important</s> time consuming, under appreciated and eventually pointless job on the station. You keep small areas from looking shitty while the areas you've already cleaned are covered with blood and litter again. You'll clean floors, toss out junk, replace broken lights and overall, keep the station resembling a workplace and not an anarchist playground!
<br>

===Equipment===
Much of this equipment is acquired from your JaniDrobe vendor in your [[Custodial_Closet|Custodial Closet]]. <br>
[[File:Jshoe.png]] [[Galoshes]] that prevent you from slipping on wet floors and items such as bananas and the clown's [[PDA]], but do nothing on [[chemist|space lubed]] floors<br/>
[[File:Cleaner.png]] A [[Spray Bottle|spray bottle]] of [[space cleaner]] that will sadly run out quickly and need to be replenished by [[chemistry]]<br/>
[[File:Grenade.png]] Three [[Space Cleaner|space cleaner]] foam [[grenade]]s<br/>
[[File:Bucket.png]] A [[bucket]] for filling your janitorial cart<br/>
[[File:Mop.png]] A [[General_items#Mop|mop]] for mopping floors<br/>
[[File:Wetfloorsign.png]] Some wet floor signs<br/>
[[File:Janiprojector.png]]A holographic sign projector<br/>
[[File:JaniBioSuit.png]] A [[haz-mat suit]]. Its hood will prevent facehuggers from raping you. Both pieces of it, when used with internals, will stop you catching contact and airborne viruses.[[File:JaniBioSuitHood.png]]<br/>
[[File:WaterTank.png]] A [[Water Tank|water tank]] to fill your janitorial cart from using your bucket<br/>
[[File:LightBox.png]] Two boxes of [[Light Bulb|light bulb]]s to refill your [[Light Replacer|light replacer]] or give to assistants so they can help replace lights<br/>
[[File:Lightreplacer0.png]] A [[Light Replacer|light replacer]] used to remove broken light tubes from light fixtures and replace them with new ones with one click. Use in hand while standing under a fixture with broken light to automatically replace it. <br/>
[[File:Brokenbottle.png]] A trash bag. Equippable in your belt slot, or the exosuit slot of [[Clothing_and_Accessories#Bio-suit|bio-suits]] [[File:BioSuit.png]]. Use it on tiny or small items to pick them up. Use on a disposal bin to empty. <br/>
[[File:MousetrapBox.png]] A box of [[mousetrap]]s to kill [[mice]] that never leave maintenance without [[Assistant|assistance]][[File:Mousetrap.png]]<br/>
[[File:Bear trap.png]] Two bear traps for trapping [[Space Bear]]s or your colleagues<br/>
[[File:Paint violet.png]] Some paint remover for cleaning up graffiti and floor stains<br/>
[[File:Janitorial Cart.png]] A [[Janitorial Cart|janitorial cart]] which holds a mop bucket, four signs, mop, spray bottle, trash bag and light replacer<br/>
[[File:Janibelt.png]] A [[Clothing_and_Accessories#Janibelt|janibelt]], a belt that can hold many of your standard issue items. You can put this into your backpack if you prefer to use the trash bag as your belt item. <br/>
[[File:Janicart.png]] The janicart, a PIMPIN' RIDE. The key spawns nearby. Drag yourself onto the cart to ride, then insert key into it to be able to start moving. You can remove the key by alt-clicking the janicart. To unbuckle from the vehicle, click the janicart or press B "resist". <br/>

Most important, you have your purple soft cap to signify <s>your duty to the station</s> who to lynch when the [[Clown]] is wetting floors.

===Wet Floor Signs===
Drop warning signs where you mop. People get pissed when you don't. You don't have enough to cover every area you clean and between lag and every player running everywhere they're usually not spotted until people are already on their backs, but they can't blame you for doing what you can!

Shaking up those you slipped maintains favour with the crew. Do this by clicking on them with an empty hand while on help intent [[File:Intent_Help.png]]. Smugly pointing at one of your signs incurs their ire.

Also, if people are chasing you, throw a bucket of water behind you, or where they will run into it, as they likely want to steal from you (your shoes are valuable). Or fill your spray bottle with a little water to quickly take down huge amounts of people.

People assume if someone slips, it was your doing. This may not be true. Often it was the [[chemist]] with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Lube|space lube]], or a [[clown]] with a bucket of water. It's possible to differentiate between slipping on a wet floor and slipping on a lubed floor.

Make sure the [[detective]] has cleared a scene before you clean up an area of some blood. Follow people dragging bodies to the medical bay; they leave long trails of blood which means more work for you.

People are going to accidentally charge your cart halfway down the hallway. Kind people will get on the other side of it and push it back to you. There's no avoiding this, apart from not using the cart and relying on the space cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]], or using the mop with buckets of water held on your person. This would require you to carry signs too.

A janitor [[cyborg]] is usually a more efficient janitor than you. It can clean floors by just moving onto them. But so can you once you get your [[Research_items#Floor_Buffer_Upgrade|floor buffer upgrade]].
