As Janitor, it is your job to keep the station clean as can be. Your duties are to mop the floors, clear the trash / junk and replace broken lights. It is your job to scrub away any undesirable graffiti from the floors. It is also your role to silently point at the wet floor sign and quietly laugh every time someone slips.

Beware being lured into dark rooms or alleyways by a colleague requesting help. For messes visible from the corridor to places you don't have access to, stand mutely and point at the mess until they embarrassedly let you in. For high security areas, make a positive impression by requesting trash through a window and lending them your mop if you see a mess.

As janitor, you'll likely be requested often by [[Medical]] and [[Chef]] staff. Blood and vomit will steadily increase in their departments. [[Scientist|Science]] will likely need you too but are often too busy experimenting to notice their mess or remember to let you out. Remember to use the [[Radio]] to work closely with the crew.

When starting, consider finding a crowbar and possibly a wirecutter (to be able to let yourself out of obscure locations when the power goes out or the [[Scientist|Science]] team forget about you). Your first, second and third option to escape a room that you've cleaned should be to say 'Excuse me' and hope they notice and feel sorry for you.

If you are having trouble mopping large amounts of liquid (like a blood filled [[Chef]] kitchen), consider trying Space Cleaner. You can request a [[Chemist]] or [[Scientist|Science]] team to refill your Space Cleaner Spray Cans. They may ask you to first half fill it with water. Note that blood will still need to be mopped up rather than sprayed at.

== Item Repurposing ==
The lazy and nuisance Janitor dumps everything that is on the floor into a bin and asks science for cleanbots. Consider sending objects to where they can be used.
* Dead mice or animals can be cooked by a [[Chef]], sold by [[Cargo_Technician|Cargo]] or recycled into biomass by [[Medical]].
* Raw food ingredients can be used by a [[Chef]].
* Glass / Cloth / Plastic / Steel / Gold / Wood can be used by the [[Scientist|Science]] or [[Engineer|Engineering]] department, or it can be sold / distributed by [[Cargo_Technician|Cargo]].
* Empty cans, wrapping paper, matches, plants, chairs, clothes, plushies, etc can be sold by [[Cargo_Technician|Cargo]].
You can also reroute disposals to your department so it is easier to manage, though you may want to talk to someone in Engineering ''before'' doing so.

When all the clean water in it gets dirty, drag it to a Drain, Left click on the Mop Bucket and continuing to hold the left mouse button, drag it's ghost image over the Drain. You can then refill it at a water tank, sink, or water cooler using a blue Bucket or other small container to transfer water. In a desperate survival situation, under the effect of mind altering chemicals or if you just REALLY can't find a Drain, you can also drink the contents (ewww!) and potentially contract any diseases your colleagues have vomited / bled out.

Once the water in the mop's Liquid Bar at the bottom of the UI is completely replaced by whatever foul mess you are cleaning up, click on the mop bucket again to wring and re-water the mop. If your mop won't drain water from the Mop Bucket, it's time to go and replace the water in the mop bucket. Or you can try spilling clean water from a blue bucket directly onto a large mess to dilute it.
If the clown dares to get in your way, you can wield the mop two-handed to be instantly more intimidating, by pressing Z.
|-
| [[File:bucket.png]] || Bucket || Used for transferring water to Mop Buckets and cleaning up big messes. Holding the bucket, click on a water source multiple times until the bucket is full, then click on the Mop Bucket multiple times until empty. It will take multiple Buckets of water to fill an empty Mop Bucket. To use on the floor directly, fill the Bucket with water, stand in the center of the mess, then right click on the Bucket and choose Spill Liquid.

For large junk like plushies / toys / clothes, you will need to manually put them into a Disposal by hand.

== Getting Supplies ==
A Janitor's Closet should be your first stop. If the closet is missing required objects, here is a reference on where to go to ask for replacements:
* [[Scientist|Science]] - Request a Mop / Bucket / Power cell (battery for flashlight) / Spray bottle / Flashlight. Science can also research an advanced mop, which cleans spills faster and automatically cleans itself/creates water.
* [[Chemistry]] / [[Scientist|Science]] - Request Space Cleaner to be made at a ChemDispenser. You may need to supply a container such as a bucket or spray bottle half full of water.
* [[Hydroponics]] - Request Water for your Bucket
