Megan loved when someone asked about her job, especially a man.
“I perform all the routine maintenance on board the Alanwich Industry spacecrafts. I ensure the safety and reliability of every major and minor system, including propulsion, navigation, life support, and gravitation. I check hull integrity before every flight. I monitor the amount of deterioration on both external and internal components and replace any that have worn down. I wash the windows and surveillance cameras to maintain maximum visibility.
“I even keep the toilets clean, if you can believe that.”
“So basically you’re a janitor.”
“You mean a space janitor.”
