Ch. 1.4 Winterfest and birthday

Image
Annika had been getting promoted for couple times but the promotions weren't easy. She did everything she could, as many tasks as possible and enjoyed all of it. The problem was that she wasn't usually focused enough. Today was collecting day, she was eager to go and collect some minerals but why it had to rain today of all days? The days were full of new inventions, nice colleagues, microwaved meals and trying out those new inventions. She was having especially fun with the transformer, the things she could do with it! Just too bad that you couldn't predict the outcome. She also made couple serums but didn't have that much luck with them. One made her feel angry, which was very weird, as she had never been really angry and one made her feel hungry all the time, no matter what she would eat.

Annika couldn't help it, she loved her job, now as much - or even more - as on her first day here. When you came to work, you never knew what was going to happen! Today was her turn to water the plants for example. She was so happy about this that she was actually whistling while working. The work at the science center was much more social than she had thought, not that she minded. It was just the calculating attitude that bugged her. If you managed to talk to a right person you could get promoted quickly - sort of thing. She had always considered herself as a fair person who played by the rules and was good to other people. Sure, she would have had it easy here if she actually played by the rules, the problem was that she didn't like these rules. "I saw you whistling at the greenhouse just a moment ago" her colleague started, "so you like this place?" "Yes, I like it here", Annika said carefully, there was something in the air that told
