| Employee Work Stations Granddaddy Ravenclaw | | Jermione Granger Regardless of the type of work they do, each Environmental employee has a work station here. A colour scheme of greens and whites is prominent in this are and helps to set it aside from the Creatures work area. A large window stretches across one of the walls from floor to ceiling, depicting an ever-changing scenery. On one side of the work area sits a large cabinet full of various essentials that the employees are free to use. From spare quills to stacks of parchment, this cabinet has it all. Attached to the cabinet sits a small bookshelf, full of books on botany, weather and other environment-based novels that the employees can use. The Department Head simply asks that you return it in its rightful place once you’re done with it.
Clusters of desks can be found around the work area, each divided by divisions within the department to make it easier for the employees to interact with their division. Comfy green and black chairs are found sitting near pristine white work surfaces. Each desk comes with a small chest of drawers and a nameplate for the employees to use. Simply write your name down on the piece of parchment in the nameplate, give it a tap and it should stay there for as long as you wish.
The work area is an open area rather than a room, meaning that you can visit other areas within the level and, at times, can see people walking past. Hopefully, this doesn’t distract you too much. A noticeboard sits along another side of the wall, right near Mrs. Howell's office where the Department Head will put up any important notices for the whole Department to see. OOC: Any/all employees are welcome here!

Hogwarts RPG Name: Sophia Svensson #556B2F Slytherin Fifth Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Eulalia Walles (#F48037) Hufflepuff Fourth Year | Constant Vigilance! O_O AWAKE! Juniper strolled over to her work station and dumped her bag on the chair. Sure, chairs were for sitting, but she had trouble focusing in these chairs. They were just too cushy and comfortable. She tucked her curly hair into a loose ponytail and pulled out the inventory sheet she had prepared the day before. She needed to make sure nothing was missing. Or order more supplies if they had run out of gloves or something.
Before getting started Juniper peered around the desks area to see if any of her coworkers were around to greet. She really wanted to try to be polite, at least. Nope. Either she was the first one here today, or everyone was in the greenhouses. That was just fine with her. Small talk required a lot of effort this early in the morning.
Leaning slightly against the desk, Juniper settled the sheet on a clipboard. Clipboards really did help with the whole "work while standing" thing. Now to go through the actual numbers of things. Hooray for lists. |

Hooray for lists. Pem yawned as she walked, hoping she didn't run into any work stations while she momentarily had her eyes closed. It was early. Waaaayyyyyy earlier than she normally came in to work, but she wanted to get some of the finishing touches on her paperwork before heading out to the field for the rest of the day.
It wasn't until Pem deposited her purse on the floor underneath her desk that she looked around the area to see who else was an early riser for the day. "Hello, there." Pem greeted the woman a few desks away. "Pemberly Perkins, don't know if I've met you yet." Quickly Pem moved a few things around her desk, trying to tidy up the best she could with the small plants she had around. "I have chocolate if you want some. It usually makes my morning a little better." Pem offered with a smile opening a desk drawer with her chocolate stash.

There was someone else at work now. She looked up and looked around until she spotted the speaker, someone she had not actually met yet. "Good morning! I'm Juniper Melo, and no, we haven't met," she said with a smile. "It's a pleasure."
Standing up from her awkward desk-leaning position, Juniper stretched and then resumed her previous stance. "I'll pass on the chocolate, but thank you." Wasn't it too early for chocolate? Juniper wasn't sure, she didn't particularly like chocolate. "I am more of a tea in the mornings type of person." |

Her desk was as tidy as it was going to get with her small collection of plants scattered about. Pulling her wand from her sleeve Pem began to water her plants as she did every day when she arrived at her desk. "Juniper is such a beautiful name!" Pem commented with a smile.
Plants watered Pem sat down and began to organize papers. "Are you normally an early riser?" Pem asked after a while as she fought a yawn.

Plants watered Pem sat down and began to organize papers. "Are you normally an early riser?" Pem asked after a while as she fought a yawn. Juniper smiled awkwardly when the other woman complimented her name. She never knew what to say to comments like that. It wasn't like she had chosen her name or anything. It was just who she was. Well, at least Pemberly Perkins was nice. She took a sip from the water bottle she kept on her desk. It was really too bad she had left her travel mug at home, as she would have liked some tea just then.
She nodded thoughtfully at the question. "I suppose so. I like to get my day started early so I have time to be productive once I get home." Not that she cooked or anything, she just liked to see her kids work in her family garden before the sun went down. Noticing the woman's yawn, she gave a half-smile. "Are you normally a morning person as well?" she asked. It certainly didn't seem like it, but yawns could be deceiving. |

"Are you normally a morning person as well?" she asked. It certainly didn't seem like it, but yawns could be deceiving. Pem laughed at herself. "I once upon a time used to love mornings. I always got up early to make a cup of tea and watch the sun rise." Those were the good days. Now all Pem felt like she was doing was working, working, working, working. Which was entirely true thanks to one Mr. Perkins. "My husband has decided to expand the family dairy farm at the same time he wants to plan to open a summer camp." Pem explained as she sat down at her desk. Taking a deep breath Pem realized she was on the verge of rambling on about all the workings of the farm and that she didn't want to subject Juniper to listening to all that. "Pardon me. My mouth is going on and I'm sure you don't want to hear about our farm." Pem apologized to Juniper. "Do you have any hobbies?" Pem asked, interested in Juniper. "I love gardening." She smiled in response to her own question.

She smiled in response to her own question. Juniper zoned out a bit as Pemberly rambled on. It was still early, after all. She was allowed to be a little distracted before noon. Then it sunk in. Dairy farm? As in cows? Juniper couldn't remember the last time she had seen a cow.
"Your family has a dairy farm? How many animals do you have?" she asked curiously. Sure, she really should get to her inventory and figure out which supplies to order more of. The lists would be there all day, though. Pem might disappear into a greenhouse and never speak of the dairy farm again. "Oh, yes. I think everybody here loves gardening. I kept a fairly large greenhouse when we lived in Iquitos. We supplied the local apothecary with most of the basics for potion-making. There's not as much space here, but I still try to grow some herbs and vegetables for cooking." Wow, she could talk about gardening all day. She blushed a bit at how much she had just talked about herself to this woman she'd just met. Hopefully Pemberly didn't think she was bragging, she just really did love gardening. |
