~WELCOME EMPLOYEE ID 31345 - DUSTY SWEEPS - LAST LOGIN: 4 MINS ~
Huh….I was playing around with one of these work terminals. This is my second time today messing around with it. There is a profile of me, but for some reason I can not access it. IT is working on it. Not that anything is wrong in the profile. Dusty Windswept Sweeps, brown mane, tan coat, brown eyes, cheery smile, friendly. ...ok that last part is not in the profile, but I’d add it if I could. The guy in IT says they are working on it. I hope it gets fixed before my orientation tomorrow. Hard to believe I’ve only been in Applewood for a week….
Ha I guess this employee notes section could function as a diary of sorts. Let’s start this properly:
Dear Diary,
Hi, I’m Dusty Sweeps. I grew up in Bucklyn, Manehatten. My mom and dad were great parents. They didn’t even care that I dropped out of high school. To be fair, I was suspended before I graduated, I just opted not to go back.
It all started when I got my cutie mark. I was a late bloomer as they say. Not sure who they are or why they say things like that, but they do. Basically, I was a blank flank all through high school. You know once you find your talent it appears, right?
I thought my talent was in acting. I mean I wasn’t so good, but practice makes perfect...right? I was in drama club my freshmen, sophomore, junior, and the beginning of my senior year. I never got any lead parts, a few background roles or “the ensemble”, but my senior year, I wasn’t cast at all. I ended up on the backstage crew. Which brings me back to my cutie mark. I never said what it was. It's a flaming pushbroom.
I got it when I cleaned up backstage after rehearsal. I can apparently clean a room in 10 seconds flat….just friction and air resistance is a thing….so the broom may have caught on fire. It was an accident. I didn’t mean to burn down the auditorium.
When I say I was suspended…..It may have actually been expulsion, same net result. At least I didn’t get arrested for arson. So I hopped on a bus for Applewood. My parents helped me arrange to live with my aunt in her apartment near downtown, it was up to me to find a job...and I did. I’m now a custodian at Warmer Mare’s Studios. My boss is a very professional stallion named Rubbish Trash-shoot.
Anyways, I gotta go. I need to hit up Mega-Mart before it closes. Um…
Sincerely,
Dusty Sweeps
Custodian at Warmer Mare’s Studios
P.S. These notes are private, right? Wouldn't want anypony finding out about my accidental arson….might get me fired.
