Clay the Office Cleaner – Character Insight
I created Clay the Office Cleaner as part of my Canadian Trades/Professions Character Challenge. Cleaners are a very important profession in Canada because they help keep our offices and commercial buildings clean.
Clay the Office Cleaner is responsible and dependable. He has been working as a cleaner for quite a few years now. He was recently promoted to a supervisor. He would like to own his own cleaning company in the near future.
Being an office cleaner is a very rewarding career for the right person. It is for the most part, light duty work. The hours are usually nights and weekends.
Clay the Office Cleaner brings his passion for hard work and his integrity to Storyland. I feel Clay the Office cleaner is an important character for Storyland, especially during the coryvirus pandemic that has recently struck some Storyland characters. It is vital that office buildings are kept clean to stop the spread of this nasty virus. My goal for Clay the Office Cleaner is to help show some respect for the cleaners because without them the coryvirus would just keep spreading.
