Wow....over a year since my "Hiatus Ended".....hahahahaha, so much for that.
So many things have happened I'm not sure where to start. I may take a day to think about what to write.
I will leave you with this:
I recently got a new job as a custodian cleaning county office buildings. They are all offices and its a very easy job. I have five buildings, they take at most two hours apiece, by myself. The last two buildings are on the same property, one side being open 24/7 with security (it has the county's suicide hotline) and the other being completely empty.
I was on the empty side, in and office room that has four "cubicles" joined via a doorway to another room that is set up the same. One side is apparently the green thumbed side as all the desks have at least one plant. The other side must have allergies (ha ha) for there are no plants.
So anyway, I'm on the allergy side, emptying trash.  My only other co-worker is vacuuming the hallway, maybe ten feet past the door. I can see the cord move and hear him moving further down the hallway.
As i place the small trashcan back on the floor next to the desk(there is a wall behind me, maybe five, six inches) and i stand back up, a male voice says "HA!" into my right ear. My co worker is on my left (on the other side of a wall)and has now moved down the hall almost as far as he can go with the cord. Still vacuuming.
I'm still not sure if i heard this correctly(though there is no doubt that i heard it) but i think "no, it didn't really happen." I go to walk into the green thumb side and i hear leaves rustling. Not like, the air conditioner is on and a gentle breeze is blowing through leaves. This was a rustle equivalent to someone pushing branches out of their way as they are traipsing trough the woods. (I grew up in the country so I know my forest sounds)
This is the point in time that the full realization hit. I am most definitely NOT the only thing in this room.
Which in turn, prompted me to gtfo of there with a speed that rivaled Flash.
I did eventually go back in to finish my job. I'm sure "there was a ghost in there" is not an acceptable excuse for a job not completed. And yes, i waited until someone else was in that room.
Since then, the door has been locked. I'm not sure why. Not hearing any complaints from me though, haha.

I worked this building for two weeks, no issues. Why start now?
