At it's core, the job of a janitor is to keep the station clean. However, there is little incentive to do so unless you care about round score or [[personal objectives]] (you weirdo). That said, the janitor gets his own office (the [[custodial closet]]) and has a variety of unique toys to play with. Coupled with having very little responsibility to the station, that makes the janitor a great beginner job.

'''Wet Floor Signs''': Put these down after you mop a busy intersection and simply point to them and sigh after people slip on wet floors.

'''Cleaner Grenades''': A powerful anti-filth explosive. Click on it while it is in your active hand to pull the pin, then throw it. Explodes in a big cloud of foam that will remove most filth, but make the floors wet.
A '''Janitor''' is a humble soul wholeheartedly devoted to the simple yet Sisyphean goal of keeping the station clean and tidy. Like the [[Detective]], the job gets its own dimly lit office, called the [[Custodial Closet]], stocked with a variety of unique toys to play and clean with. Because this role involves simple tasks that are easy to learn and usually don't cause a lot of harm if you mess up, Janitor makes a great beginner job!


'''Spray Bottles''': Versatile liquid-spraying device. Some of the bottles come filled with Space Cleaner, a strong cleaning chemical that doesn't leave floors wet. The other bottles are empty and can be filled with other liquids such as water. Scientists covet these items because they can be used to delivery nasty chemicals into people's faces.
==The Janitor's Arsenal==
All of these items spawn in the custodial closet, with many of them appearing in the [[#JaniTech|JaniTech]].


'''Sponge''': Used to dry up floors. Why you would ever want to do that is a mystery.
===Cleaning Equipment===
----
Items for cleaning up messes such as blood puddles, vomit, puddles of liquid, and the like.  
{|class="wikitable sortable"
!scope = "col" style="width: 15%" | Item
!scope = "col" style="width: 5% ; text-align: center" class="unsortable" | Image

== Syndicate Janitors ==
|- id="Mop"
! Mop
| <center>[[File:MopNew.png]]</center>
| The basic floor-cleaning device. Before washing can occur, the mop must first be wet. Using it on a floor will create a puddle of whatever fluid it's absorbed and liquefy average messes like dirt, blood, vomit, and oil. Using it on a puddle of fluids will soak the liquid into the mop. You can also use it in self defense like a spear via clicking a distant tile while on {{Harm}} intent. It is also possible to "joust" with these when riding a [[Vehicles#Segway|segway]].


The Syndicate Janitor is well equipped for a messy, horrifying rampage. His Syndicate Cleaner Grenades appear to be regular at first, but in fact lay down a mess of acid and space lube in their path. Anyone who holds still will be horribly burned; anyone who runs away or moves into help will smash their face as they slip on the space lube. Your regular cleaning grenades also serve as an excellent getaway tool, slipping up the Security forces out for your blood while you run off unharmed. If you can gain access to Chemistry, you can load your empty spray bottles with devastating concoctions or turn them into makeshift flamethrowers. Finally, the syndicate trash compactor, disguised as a regular trash container, will quickly turn any slipped victim you capture into a cube of meat that explodes into messy (and uncloneable) gibs.
|- id="Mop Bucket"
! Mop bucket
| <center>[[File:MopBucketV2.png]]</center>
| Can hold about 400 units of liquid to dip your mop in. To fill it, you click-drag the sprite for your container of choice onto the mop bucket's sprite; if you just click on it with the container, you'll wind up stowing it away in its storage slots.<br><br>This must be dragged around behind you. Expect it to get pushed around ''constantly''. You can also expect to occasionally get boxed in by your own mop bucket. If you find yourself stuck, you can click-drag your character's sprite onto the mop bucket's to scoot around it and move to the tile it's on, allowing you to move freely again.<br><br>You can also store up to seven normal-sized items (and anything smaller than normal-size) on it, e.g. [[#Mop|mops]], extra bottles of cleaner, etc., essentially functioning like a second [[Clothing#Backpack|backpack]]. It works just like a backpack too: you can click on the mop bucket while holding an item to store it on the mop bucket, and you can click on the mop bucket with an empty hand to access its contents and, from there, take items out.


|- id="Bucket"
! Bucket
| <center>[[File:BucketV2.png]] [[File:RedBucketV2.png]]</center>
| Holds 120 units of liquid and is used to wet a mop or transfer liquids from a [[General Objects#Tank|water tank]] to the mop bucket, though it's usually faster to click-drag the tank onto the mop bucket to fill it up to the brim in one go. Makes a helmet if wirecutters are used on it, but it also becomes useless for holding liquids. You can also click on it in-hand to make it into a bucket hat, dumping out its contents onto the floor and obscuring your vision when worn. A red version is available as both a [[#Janitor Job Rewards|reward for accruing a certain amount of Janitor XP]] and a reward from getting the [[Medals#Spotless|Spotless medal]].
|- id="Buff-R-Matic"
! [[Vehicles#Buff-R-Matic 3000|Buff-R-Matic]]
| <center>[[Image:BuffRMaticV3.png]]</center>
| It functions much like a segway, as you must drag yourself onto it, and you may be pushed off. Unlike a segway however, you will coat the floors with any [[Chemicals|chemicals]] you put in its reservoir tank when you turn the buffer on, and it will dry off floors with puddles of fluid when it's off. Comes filled with a mixture of water and space cleaner.
|- id="Cleaner Grenade"
! Cleaner Grenade
| <center>[[File:CleanerGrenadeV3.png]]</center>
| Also known as clean''ing'' grenades, cleaner grenades are a powerful tool for cleaning up especially filthy areas. Simply click on it is in your active hand to pull the pin, then throw it (Press either {{Key|Spacebar}} for Goon WASD or {{Key|R}} for /tg/style WASD, then click on where you want the grenade to go). After the timer runs through, it creates a [[Chemicals#Fluorosurfactant|foam]] puddle of [[Chemicals#Space Cleaner|space cleaner]] that removes almost all types of filth in a 7-tile radius (barring walls, windows, etc. of course). It doesn't make the floors wet, but the foam itself can slip people who go through it too fast, though it dissipates after a short while.
|- id="Spray Bottle"
! [[General Objects#Spray Bottle|Spray bottles]]
| <center>[[File:SprayBottleV2-32x32.png]]</center>
| Some of your bottles, like the one that starts in your [[#Janny Pack|janny pack]], contain [[Chemicals#Space Cleaner|space cleaner]], others are empty and be filled with whatever reagent you desire. If you're more interested in doing your job as opposed to slipping people up, stick to space cleaner as it actually cleans up dirt and blood and what-not, unlike bottles filled with pure water. In addition to cleaning floors and items, this can also be used to clean gunked-up [[Foods and Drinks#Microwave|microwaves]].
|- id="Sponge"
! Sponge
| <center>[[File:SpongeV2.png]]</center>
| A versatile scrubbing tool found near showers and tubs, and one can be found in the [[#Janny Pack|janitor's fanny pack]]. Wet it using a sink or [[#Mop Bucket|mop bucket]] and apply it directly to stubborn messes like dried vomit, or click a floor or wall tile to 'wipe it down' and clean dense piles of gibs and fungus with ease.It can also clean dirty [[Foods and Drinks#Microwave|microwaves]]. A full sponge can be wrung out by clicking it in-hand, dumping its contents into a pool at your feet. On the Oshan map you can get them by hitting a sponge coral with wirecutters.
|- id="Towel"
! [[General Objects#Towel|Towel]]
| <center>[[File:TowelCollection.gif]]</center>
| A towel, located within [[#Janny Pack|your handy dandy janny pack]] on round start. Wipe down floors, glasses, and whatever else is dirty. Functions very similarly to a sponge. You'll get a random color when you spawn in except for the special [[bartender]] and [[clown]] variant.
|- id="WA-V3 Cleaning Device"
! WA-V3 Cleaning Device
| <center>[[File:WAV3CleaningDeviceWave.png]]</center> <!-- Wave is evidently considered the default mode; this is the mode it's set to when it spawns-->
| This WA-V3 Cleaning Device shoots out waves of cleaning fluid, drawn from a tank you wear on your back. The tank can accept all sorts of chems, but it has the same blacklist as the [[General Objects#Fire Extinguisher|extinguisher]], so some chems will clog the device (you can clear the clog at a sink, and empty the whole tank with a wrench.) It comes with three modes:
*[[File:WAV3CleaningDeviceNarrow.png]] Narrow: One tile wide. The wave also pushes items lying loose on the floor.
*[[File:WAV3CleaningDeviceWave.png]] Wave: Three tiles wide. This also pushes items.
*[[File:WAV3CleaningDeviceWide.png]] Wide: Five tiles wide, but short-ranged. It also pushes people, in addition to items lying on the ground. 
Besides storing stuff for the sprayer, the back tank also has three item slots for tiny- and small-sized items, e.g. [[Janitor#Sponge|sponges]], [[Janitor#Vacuumn|vacuums]], [[Janitor#Cleaner Grenade|cleaner grenades]], but not [[Janitor#Mop|mops]] or the WA-V3 Cleaning Device itself.
|- id="Antique Mop"
! Antique Mop
| <center>[[File:AntiqueMopNew.png]]</center>
| The [[#Mop|mop]] before the fluids update, but better, found in a wreck in the [[Debris Field]]. Unlike the regular mop, it can clean multiple successive messes before drying out, more if you clean multiple messes at once. It takes a bit longer to clean than the regular mop, but it cleans things it normally can't, such as gibs and robot debris. It also makes the tile cleaned slippery for about fifteen seconds, evident via a faintly pulsing outline, causing anyone who runs over it to fall; walking and crawling are fine. Cannot mop up fluid puddles.
|- id="Cheese-Shaped Sponge"
! Cheese-Shaped Sponge
| <center>[[File:CheeseShapedSpongeV2.png]]</center>
| Just like a [[#Sponge|regular old sponge]], but it's shaped like cheese! Great for people who love cheesy jokes and pranks. You can sometimes find a cheese-shaped sponge in the [[Kitchen]]'s cheese box, and you can DIY one by using a cutting/snipping tool, e.g. [[General Objects#Scissors|scissors]], a sponge, which preserves whatever chems were originally in the sponge. 
|- id="Tsunami-P3 Spray Bottle"
! Tsunami-P3 Spray Bottle
| <center>[[File:TsunamiP3SprayBottleV2.png]]</center>
| Unusual cleaning device, found only in the [[Afterlife Bar]] (i.e. not normally accessible to the living). When used like a standard spray bottle (click on a tile while holding the thing), unleashes a 3-tile wide cleaning wave that travels for up to 9 tiles, removing any messes it touches. You cannot add in any chems, the cleaning wave itself is harmless and cannot slip people, and the bottle has unlimited uses.

===Other Janitor Equipment===
Clothes and other items not necessarily used for cleaning but nevertheless useful in the janitor business.
{|class="wikitable sortable"
!scope = "col" style="width: 15%" | Item
!scope = "col" style="width: 5% ; text-align: center" class="unsortable" | Image
!scope = "col" style="width: 75%" class="unsortable" | Description
|- id="Janny Pack"
! Janny Pack
| <center>[[Image:JanitorBelt.png]]</center>
| Also known as the janitor's fanny pack, the janny pack is essentially a stylish purple version of the [[Clothing#Fanny Pack|fanny pack]]. It has five slots and spawns with four items: a Janitor Towel, a [[#Handheld Vacuum|handheld vacuum]], a [[#Sponge|sponge]], and a [[#Spray Bottle|spray bottle]]. Starting equipment for janitors.
|- id="Wet Floor Sign"
! Wet Floor Sign
| <center>[[File:WetFloorSignV2.png]]</center>
| Put these down after you mop a busy intersection and simply point to them and sigh after people slip on wet floors. Mopping without putting down wet floor signs is generally considered grounds for Light Mockery and Amusing Tickets & Fines. Clicking on a wet floor sign with a [[wrench]] anchors/unanchors it, preventing/allowing people to pick it up.
|- id="Galoshes"
! Galoshes
| <center>[[Image:Galoshes.png]]</center>
| The janitor's (mostly) unique footwear. Prevents slipping on wet floors when worn, though you are still vulnerable to space lube, ice and certain other chemical spills. Every Janitor spawns with a pair.
|- id="Cleaning Gloves"
! Cleaning Gloves
| <center>[[File:Rubbergloves (1).png]]</center>
| Also called long gloves, rubber gloves, and janitor gloves. Fun fact, did you know that the German word for gloves means hand shoes? That's what these little things are technically. While these cleaning gloves won't prevent you from slipping (even if you walk on your hands), they're quite similar to the galoshes in appearance and also happen to provide some protection from dirt, heat and even electricty to some degree. Every Janitor spawns wearing these, and there are a handful of spares in the [[#JaniTech|JaniTech]].
|- id="Mousetrap"
! Mousetrap
| <center>[[Image:MousetrapBox.png]] [[Image:Mousetrap.png]]</center>
| Besides killing the [[chef]]'s only friend, these can be used to just annoy folks or for more nefarious purposes with the right equipment. Anyone who steps on an armed mousetrap while barefoot will be stunned and take damage.
|- id="Trash Cart"
! Trash Cart
| <center>[[Image:TrashCart.png]]</center>
| A big green cart for stuffing litter (or corpses) into. Expect it to be pushed around and the items spilled. A lot.
|- id="Trash Bag"
! Trash bags
| <center>[[Image:BoxOfTrashBags.png]] [[Image:TrashBag.png]]<br>[[Image:BoxOfBiohazardBags.png]] [[Image:BiohazardBag.png]]</center>
| Comes in two varieties, both otherwise functionally identical: Standard (black) and bio-hazardous (red). Can fit a number of normal- sized or smaller items (e.g. glass shards or bullet casings but not crates or [[Murder#Transfer valve bomb|TTVs]]) into them, with exception of other trash bags, and can be disposed of easily in either a trash cart or in disposal chutes. Wear it on your uniform slot and channel your inner Frank. Just ask genetics before you start eating the traysh.
|- id="Handheld Vacuum"
! Handheld Vacuum
| <center>[[File:HandheldVacuumV2-32x32.png]]</center>
| A small vacuum that spawns in every [[#Janny Pack|Janitor's fanny pack]], useful for clearing litter, chemsmoke clouds, and ants. This has two main functions:
*Click on a tile to suck up small items, such as glass shards and bullet casings, into its internal [[#Trash Bag|trash bag]]. To empty the bag, you can click on a closed crate, [[#Trash Cart|trash cart]], disposal chute, or similar to dump it all out. You can also click on the vacuum while it's in your hand or with an empty hand to remove the bag; note it obviously can't suck up items without a bag.
*Click on a pile of space ants or a [[Chemicals#Smoke Powder|smoke-powder-based cloud of chemicals]] (e.g. [[Decomposition#Miasma|miasma cloud]]) to clear it away into vacuum's internal [[#Bucket|bucket]] reservior. To empty the bucket, click on a [[#Mop Bucket|mop bucket]] or sink. Removing the bucket is same as removing a bag, and again the vacuum can't function with it.
You can also click at least two tiles away from you to pull items within 3 tiles in the direction you towards you. This also has a 25% chance to make someone in the suction area drop the item they're holding, essentially making it a disarm at range, which is why this function can also be done by clicking on someone at melee range.

===JaniTech===
[[File:JaniTech.png|64px]]
This machine in the [[Custodial Closet]] is your destination for sanitation equipment. It dispenses many of the above janitorial items, with its specific contents listed below. Surprisingly, this does not have any access restrictions, so non-Janitors can vend items from it, though they usually don't have much reason to do so.

===Custodial Supplies Locker===
This is a unique locker in the [[Custodial Closet]] that contains a few extra janitorial supplies, notably some bottles of chemicals that can be used to make [[Chemicals#Space Cleaner|space cleaner]]. It starts off locked, but luckily you have access to it, so just click on the locker to unlock it, then click on it again to open it.
* 1x "Janitor's equipment" box (janitor jumpsuit, brown shoes, janitor headset, janitor PDA, i.e. no galoshes)
* 1x Acetone Bottle (50 units of [[Chemicals#Acetone|Acetone]])
* 1x Ammonia Bottle (50 units of [[Chemicals#Ammonia|Ammonia]])
* 1x [[General Objects#Flashlight|flashlight]]
* 2x Space Cleaner Bottles (50 units of [[Chemicals#Space Cleaner|space cleaner]])
* 4x [[#Wet Floor Sign|Wet Floor Signs]]
==Janitor XP==
As a reward for trying to clean up that the perpetual pigsty that is Space Station 13, at the end of the round, the game awards you with Janitor XP. Janitor XP is used for your janitor level, and at certain levels, you unlock particular rewards, detailed in the [[#Janitor Job Rewards|next section]].
Rather than time or rounds spent, Janitor XP is earned through specific actions, namely:
{|class="wikitable sortable"

XP levels are also tracked on a [https://secure.byond.com/games/Slurm/GoonStationMedals#tab=scores|global leaderboard] that has no purpose other than bragging rights.
===Janitor Job Rewards===
You can redeem the job rewards through the ''Check Job Rewards'' command, which you can find in the Commands tab and can enter in your text parser. Currently, there are 4 rewards available:
{| class="wikitable"
! Name
! Level Unlocked
! Icon
! Description
|- id="RedBucket"
! Red Bucket
| 5
| <center>[[Image:Redbucket.png]]</center>
| Turns a standard [[#Bucket|blue bucket]] into a red bucket! They say that these red buckets used to be given as rewards to Janitors who did a really good job. Turns out veteran janitors aren't particularly impressed with cheap recolors of their existing equipment so they just started giving it out to the new guys.
|- id="Holo-Emitter"
! Holo-Emitter
| 10
| <center>[[Image:HoloEmitter.png]]</center>
| Floor signs that brightly light up the area around them when placed and have futuristic hologram effects. You can click on it in-hand to activate it and set the image displayed above the holo emitter. Modes/images include:
*Cone - [[Image:HoloEmitterCone.png]] 
*Spray - [[File:HoloEmitterSprayV2.png]]
*Wet - [[Image:HoloEmitterWetFloorSignV2.gif]]
*Text - [[Image:HoloEmitterWetTextV2.gif]]
|- id="OrangeMop"
! Orange Mop
| 15
| <center>[[Image:OrangeMopNew.png]]</center>
| Takes a regular [[#Mop|blue mop]] and makes it into an orange one. It's scented like some kind of citrus, but you can't think of what. You certainly don't want to take a bite out of it though. Especially now that it's been caked in blood and puke.
|- id="JanitorBeret"
! Head of Sanitation Beret / Hat

| <center>[[Image:Beretnhat.gif]]</center>
| The Chief of Cleaning, the Superintendent of Scrubbing, whatever you call yourself, you know how to make those tiles shine. Good job. Use it in hand to switch between beret and a hat!
|}
==Crew Objectives==
As a loyal crew member, you can sometimes be assigned some strictly optional objectives to keep yourself busy while you wait for something to happen. If you complete your objectives by the end of the round, you'll get [[Spacebux#Crew Objective Bonus|some bonus Spacebux]] and might even earn some [[Medals]] too. As a janitor, you can expect to see the following:<br>
'''Make sure the bar/the brig/medbay is spotless at the end of the round.'''<br>
There are a few different objectives like this, but they're all the same, they just want there to be no messes that you can clean up with your mop in the targeted area. With the exception of the [[bar]] and [[medbay]], this typically happens without you doing a thing. But if you want to be more proactive, bug the [[roboticist]] for a cyborg arm and make a [[cleanbot]]. Deliver the cleanbot to the place the objective requests. Then walk away, you're basically done.
When you complete this objective for the first time, you get the [[Medals#Spotless|Spotless medal]]. You don't need to complete it once for every version, and if you get multiple versions of this objective within one round, you don't have to fulfill each one. If, for example, you get the "keep medbay spotless" and "keep the bar" objectives and complete the medbay one, but fail the bar one, you still get the medal. As for rewards, this medal lets you, once per a round, turn a blue [[#Bucket|bucket]] into a red one, so you can add a dash of variety into your day.
==Slippery Bastard: Antagonist Janitor==
You may be a humble janitor, but when it comes to doing dirty deeds as an [[antagonist]], you're not to be taken lightly. Thanks to your [[Janitor#Galoshes|galoshes]], it's easy to use slipping hazards to your advantage. For example, if Sec is hot on your tail, you can detonate a [[Janitor#Cleaning Grenade|cleaning grenade]] to shake them off, slipping up the security forces out for your blood while you run off unharmed.
If you can gain access to [[chemistry]], you can unleash some novel forms of chemical warfare. For example, you can load your empty spray bottles with devastating [[Chemicals#Acids|acids]] for an ''extra-strength'' cleaning solution. Alternatively, you can also turn them into makeshift flamethrowers with the right mix of [[Chemicals#Pyrotechnic Chems|pyrotechnics]]. If you enjoy the [[Janitor#Buff-R-Matic|Buff-R-Matic]], try putting up some [[Chemicals#Cryostylane|cryostylane]] in the tank to make it into a zamboni, for an impromptu ice skating rink. Finally, brewing up some [[Chemicals#Space Lube|space lube]] and mopping floors with it is a time-honored classic, though since your [[Janitor#Galoshes|galoshes]] ''don't'' protect you from space lube, you'll still need to tread carefully.

CIVILIAN DEPARTMENT
Janitor
JanitorNew64.png
Janitor
Difficulty: Easy to Medium
Requirements: None
Access Level: Janitor's Closet, Medbay, Morgue, Maintenance
Additional Roleplay Access Level: None
Supervisors: Captain, Head of Personnel
Subordinates: None
Responsibilities: Clean up vomit, blood, and other messes, pick up trash and other debris, soak up leaking seawater on ocean-based maps
Guides: This is the guide!
Your destination for sanitation in the southern portion of the station. It's across Waste Disposals, itself accessible from one of the Public Market booths.
Your closet, located in the general northeastern portion. Start from the Bar, go south at the Chapel and Medical Booth, go through the right door, and follow either tile paths to your very own suite.
Your mini closet in the south, below the Morgue. One more office than the Captain!
Your closet, the last bastion of cleanliness, located southwest of the Bar.
The Janitor's Office, located in the southwest. Enter the maintenance tunnel left of Emergency Tools, by Arrivals. Go through the door by the Vendomat. Sit in the chair, look out the window, and ponder what it's like to live in a pit full of corrosive acid.
The Janitor Supply Closet, your outpost in the west by Escape. Just go through the door in the storage room, and there you are.
Your janitor closet, above the medical bay in the west. You've two neighbors. One has weird shoes and wears funny costumes. The other is a Clown.
Your janitor closet under the sea and above the Bar.
The Janitor Supply Closet, an outpost west of Arrivals ideal for supplies attacks.
Your other closet, an a hellhole in a maintenance behind the Pool.

A Janitor is a humble soul wholeheartedly devoted to the simple yet Sisyphean goal of keeping the station clean and tidy. Like the Detective, the job gets its own dimly lit office, called the Custodial Closet, stocked with a variety of unique toys to play and clean with. Because this role involves simple tasks that are easy to learn and usually don't cause a lot of harm if you mess up, Janitor makes a great beginner job!

The Janitor's Arsenal

All of these items spawn in the custodial closet, with many of them appearing in the JaniTech.

Cleaning Equipment

Items for cleaning up messes such as blood puddles, vomit, puddles of liquid, and the like.

Item Image Description
Mop
MopNew.png
The basic floor-cleaning device. Before washing can occur, the mop must first be wet. Using it on a floor will create a puddle of whatever fluid it's absorbed and liquefy average messes like dirt, blood, vomit, and oil. Using it on a puddle of fluids will soak the liquid into the mop. You can also use it in self defense like a spear via clicking a distant tile while on Harm intent. It is also possible to "joust" with these when riding a segway.
Mop bucket
MopBucketV2.png
Can hold about 400 units of liquid to dip your mop in. To fill it, you click-drag the sprite for your container of choice onto the mop bucket's sprite; if you just click on it with the container, you'll wind up stowing it away in its storage slots.

This must be dragged around behind you. Expect it to get pushed around constantly. You can also expect to occasionally get boxed in by your own mop bucket. If you find yourself stuck, you can click-drag your character's sprite onto the mop bucket's to scoot around it and move to the tile it's on, allowing you to move freely again.

You can also store up to seven normal-sized items (and anything smaller than normal-size) on it, e.g. mops, extra bottles of cleaner, etc., essentially functioning like a second backpack. It works just like a backpack too: you can click on the mop bucket while holding an item to store it on the mop bucket, and you can click on the mop bucket with an empty hand to access its contents and, from there, take items out.
Bucket
BucketV2.png RedBucketV2.png
Holds 120 units of liquid and is used to wet a mop or transfer liquids from a water tank to the mop bucket, though it's usually faster to click-drag the tank onto the mop bucket to fill it up to the brim in one go. Makes a helmet if wirecutters are used on it, but it also becomes useless for holding liquids. You can also click on it in-hand to make it into a bucket hat, dumping out its contents onto the floor and obscuring your vision when worn. A red version is available as both a reward for accruing a certain amount of Janitor XP and a reward from getting the Spotless medal.
Buff-R-Matic
BuffRMaticV3.png
It functions much like a segway, as you must drag yourself onto it, and you may be pushed off. Unlike a segway however, you will coat the floors with any chemicals you put in its reservoir tank when you turn the buffer on, and it will dry off floors with puddles of fluid when it's off. Comes filled with a mixture of water and space cleaner.
Cleaner Grenade
CleanerGrenadeV3.png
Also known as cleaning grenades, cleaner grenades are a powerful tool for cleaning up especially filthy areas. Simply click on it is in your active hand to pull the pin, then throw it (Press either Spacebar for Goon WASD or R for /tg/style WASD, then click on where you want the grenade to go). After the timer runs through, it creates a foam puddle of space cleaner that removes almost all types of filth in a 7-tile radius (barring walls, windows, etc. of course). It doesn't make the floors wet, but the foam itself can slip people who go through it too fast, though it dissipates after a short while.
Spray bottles
SprayBottleV2-32x32.png
Some of your bottles, like the one that starts in your janny pack, contain space cleaner, others are empty and be filled with whatever reagent you desire. If you're more interested in doing your job as opposed to slipping people up, stick to space cleaner as it actually cleans up dirt and blood and what-not, unlike bottles filled with pure water. In addition to cleaning floors and items, this can also be used to clean gunked-up microwaves.
Sponge
SpongeV2.png
A versatile scrubbing tool found near showers and tubs, and one can be found in the janitor's fanny pack. Wet it using a sink or mop bucket and apply it directly to stubborn messes like dried vomit, or click a floor or wall tile to 'wipe it down' and clean dense piles of gibs and fungus with ease.It can also clean dirty microwaves. A full sponge can be wrung out by clicking it in-hand, dumping its contents into a pool at your feet. On the Oshan map you can get them by hitting a sponge coral with wirecutters.
Towel
TowelCollection.gif
A towel, located within your handy dandy janny pack on round start. Wipe down floors, glasses, and whatever else is dirty. Functions very similarly to a sponge. You'll get a random color when you spawn in except for the special bartender and clown variant.
WA-V3 Cleaning Device
WAV3CleaningDeviceWave.png
This WA-V3 Cleaning Device shoots out waves of cleaning fluid, drawn from a tank you wear on your back. The tank can accept all sorts of chems, but it has the same blacklist as the extinguisher, so some chems will clog the device (you can clear the clog at a sink, and empty the whole tank with a wrench.) It comes with three modes:
  • WAV3CleaningDeviceNarrow.png Narrow: One tile wide. The wave also pushes items lying loose on the floor.
  • WAV3CleaningDeviceWave.png Wave: Three tiles wide. This also pushes items.
  • WAV3CleaningDeviceWide.png Wide: Five tiles wide, but short-ranged. It also pushes people, in addition to items lying on the ground.

Besides storing stuff for the sprayer, the back tank also has three item slots for tiny- and small-sized items, e.g. sponges, vacuums, cleaner grenades, but not mops or the WA-V3 Cleaning Device itself.

Antique Mop
AntiqueMopNew.png
The mop before the fluids update, but better, found in a wreck in the Debris Field. Unlike the regular mop, it can clean multiple successive messes before drying out, more if you clean multiple messes at once. It takes a bit longer to clean than the regular mop, but it cleans things it normally can't, such as gibs and robot debris. It also makes the tile cleaned slippery for about fifteen seconds, evident via a faintly pulsing outline, causing anyone who runs over it to fall; walking and crawling are fine. Cannot mop up fluid puddles.
Cheese-Shaped Sponge
CheeseShapedSpongeV2.png
Just like a regular old sponge, but it's shaped like cheese! Great for people who love cheesy jokes and pranks. You can sometimes find a cheese-shaped sponge in the Kitchen's cheese box, and you can DIY one by using a cutting/snipping tool, e.g. scissors, a sponge, which preserves whatever chems were originally in the sponge.
Tsunami-P3 Spray Bottle
TsunamiP3SprayBottleV2.png
Unusual cleaning device, found only in the Afterlife Bar (i.e. not normally accessible to the living). When used like a standard spray bottle (click on a tile while holding the thing), unleashes a 3-tile wide cleaning wave that travels for up to 9 tiles, removing any messes it touches. You cannot add in any chems, the cleaning wave itself is harmless and cannot slip people, and the bottle has unlimited uses.

Other Janitor Equipment

Clothes and other items not necessarily used for cleaning but nevertheless useful in the janitor business.

Item Image Description
Janny Pack
JanitorBelt.png
Also known as the janitor's fanny pack, the janny pack is essentially a stylish purple version of the fanny pack. It has five slots and spawns with four items: a Janitor Towel, a handheld vacuum, a sponge, and a spray bottle. Starting equipment for janitors.
Wet Floor Sign
WetFloorSignV2.png
Put these down after you mop a busy intersection and simply point to them and sigh after people slip on wet floors. Mopping without putting down wet floor signs is generally considered grounds for Light Mockery and Amusing Tickets & Fines. Clicking on a wet floor sign with a wrench anchors/unanchors it, preventing/allowing people to pick it up.
Galoshes
Galoshes.png
The janitor's (mostly) unique footwear. Prevents slipping on wet floors when worn, though you are still vulnerable to space lube, ice and certain other chemical spills. Every Janitor spawns with a pair.
Cleaning Gloves
Rubbergloves (1).png
Also called long gloves, rubber gloves, and janitor gloves. Fun fact, did you know that the German word for gloves means hand shoes? That's what these little things are technically. While these cleaning gloves won't prevent you from slipping (even if you walk on your hands), they're quite similar to the galoshes in appearance and also happen to provide some protection from dirt, heat and even electricty to some degree. Every Janitor spawns wearing these, and there are a handful of spares in the JaniTech.
Mousetrap
MousetrapBox.png Mousetrap.png
Besides killing the chef's only friend, these can be used to just annoy folks or for more nefarious purposes with the right equipment. Anyone who steps on an armed mousetrap while barefoot will be stunned and take damage.
Trash Cart
TrashCart.png
A big green cart for stuffing litter (or corpses) into. Expect it to be pushed around and the items spilled. A lot.
Trash bags
BoxOfTrashBags.png TrashBag.png
BoxOfBiohazardBags.png BiohazardBag.png
Comes in two varieties, both otherwise functionally identical: Standard (black) and bio-hazardous (red). Can fit a number of normal- sized or smaller items (e.g. glass shards or bullet casings but not crates or TTVs) into them, with exception of other trash bags, and can be disposed of easily in either a trash cart or in disposal chutes. Wear it on your uniform slot and channel your inner Frank. Just ask genetics before you start eating the traysh.
Handheld Vacuum
HandheldVacuumV2-32x32.png
A small vacuum that spawns in every Janitor's fanny pack, useful for clearing litter, chemsmoke clouds, and ants. This has two main functions:
  • Click on a tile to suck up small items, such as glass shards and bullet casings, into its internal trash bag. To empty the bag, you can click on a closed crate, trash cart, disposal chute, or similar to dump it all out. You can also click on the vacuum while it's in your hand or with an empty hand to remove the bag; note it obviously can't suck up items without a bag.
  • Click on a pile of space ants or a smoke-powder-based cloud of chemicals (e.g. miasma cloud) to clear it away into vacuum's internal bucket reservior. To empty the bucket, click on a mop bucket or sink. Removing the bucket is same as removing a bag, and again the vacuum can't function with it.

You can also click at least two tiles away from you to pull items within 3 tiles in the direction you towards you. This also has a 25% chance to make someone in the suction area drop the item they're holding, essentially making it a disarm at range, which is why this function can also be done by clicking on someone at melee range.

JaniTech

JaniTech.png

This machine in the Custodial Closet is your destination for sanitation equipment. It dispenses many of the above janitorial items, with its specific contents listed below. Surprisingly, this does not have any access restrictions, so non-Janitors can vend items from it, though they usually don't have much reason to do so.

Custodial Supplies Locker

This is a unique locker in the Custodial Closet that contains a few extra janitorial supplies, notably some bottles of chemicals that can be used to make space cleaner. It starts off locked, but luckily you have access to it, so just click on the locker to unlock it, then click on it again to open it.

  • 1x "Janitor's equipment" box (janitor jumpsuit, brown shoes, janitor headset, janitor PDA, i.e. no galoshes)
  • 1x Acetone Bottle (50 units of Acetone)
  • 1x Ammonia Bottle (50 units of Ammonia)
  • 1x flashlight
  • 2x Space Cleaner Bottles (50 units of space cleaner)
  • 4x Wet Floor Signs

Janitor XP

As a reward for trying to clean up that the perpetual pigsty that is Space Station 13, at the end of the round, the game awards you with Janitor XP. Janitor XP is used for your janitor level, and at certain levels, you unlock particular rewards, detailed in the next section.

Rather than time or rounds spent, Janitor XP is earned through specific actions, namely:

Action XP Earned
Placing down (i.e. dropping) a wet floor sign or holo-emitter sign 2
Spraying with the Tsunami-P3 Spray Bottle 2
Spraying with a spray bottle. Bottle must have either water or cleaner. 2
Soaking up a fluid puddle with a mop 2
Cleaning a mess/tile with the mop. 2
Cleaning a mess/tile with the antique mop. 2
Soaking up a fluid puddle with a sponge 1
Drying a tile with a sponge 1
Wiping down something with a sponge 3
Wetting a sponge 1
Going over a tile with the Buff-R-Matic's sprayer on. Must be applying either water or cleaner. 1
Completing the "Make sure the bar is spotless at the end of the round" objective. 50
Completing the "Make sure medbay is spotless at the end of the round" objective. 50
Completing the "Make sure the brig is spotless at the end of the round" objective. 50

XP levels are also tracked on a leaderboard that has no purpose other than bragging rights.

Janitor Job Rewards

You can redeem the job rewards through the Check Job Rewards command, which you can find in the Commands tab and can enter in your text parser. Currently, there are 4 rewards available:

Name Level Unlocked Icon Description
Red Bucket 5
Redbucket.png
Turns a standard blue bucket into a red bucket! They say that these red buckets used to be given as rewards to Janitors who did a really good job. Turns out veteran janitors aren't particularly impressed with cheap recolors of their existing equipment so they just started giving it out to the new guys.
Holo-Emitter 10
HoloEmitter.png
Floor signs that brightly light up the area around them when placed and have futuristic hologram effects. You can click on it in-hand to activate it and set the image displayed above the holo emitter. Modes/images include:
  • Cone - HoloEmitterCone.png
  • Spray - HoloEmitterSprayV2.png
  • Wet - HoloEmitterWetFloorSignV2.gif
  • Text - HoloEmitterWetTextV2.gif
Orange Mop 15
OrangeMopNew.png
Takes a regular blue mop and makes it into an orange one. It's scented like some kind of citrus, but you can't think of what. You certainly don't want to take a bite out of it though. Especially now that it's been caked in blood and puke.
Head of Sanitation Beret / Hat 20
Beretnhat.gif
The Chief of Cleaning, the Superintendent of Scrubbing, whatever you call yourself, you know how to make those tiles shine. Good job. Use it in hand to switch between beret and a hat!

Crew Objectives

As a loyal crew member, you can sometimes be assigned some strictly optional objectives to keep yourself busy while you wait for something to happen. If you complete your objectives by the end of the round, you'll get some bonus Spacebux and might even earn some Medals too. As a janitor, you can expect to see the following:

Make sure the bar/the brig/medbay is spotless at the end of the round.
There are a few different objectives like this, but they're all the same, they just want there to be no messes that you can clean up with your mop in the targeted area. With the exception of the bar and medbay, this typically happens without you doing a thing. But if you want to be more proactive, bug the roboticist for a cyborg arm and make a cleanbot. Deliver the cleanbot to the place the objective requests. Then walk away, you're basically done.

When you complete this objective for the first time, you get the Spotless medal. You don't need to complete it once for every version, and if you get multiple versions of this objective within one round, you don't have to fulfill each one. If, for example, you get the "keep medbay spotless" and "keep the bar" objectives and complete the medbay one, but fail the bar one, you still get the medal. As for rewards, this medal lets you, once per a round, turn a blue bucket into a red one, so you can add a dash of variety into your day.

Slippery Bastard: Antagonist Janitor

You may be a humble janitor, but when it comes to doing dirty deeds as an antagonist, you're not to be taken lightly. Thanks to your galoshes, it's easy to use slipping hazards to your advantage. For example, if Sec is hot on your tail, you can detonate a cleaning grenade to shake them off, slipping up the security forces out for your blood while you run off unharmed.

If you can gain access to chemistry, you can unleash some novel forms of chemical warfare. For example, you can load your empty spray bottles with devastating acids for an extra-strength cleaning solution. Alternatively, you can also turn them into makeshift flamethrowers with the right mix of pyrotechnics. If you enjoy the Buff-R-Matic, try putting up some cryostylane in the tank to make it into a zamboni, for an impromptu ice skating rink. Finally, brewing up some space lube and mopping floors with it is a time-honored classic, though since your galoshes don't protect you from space lube, you'll still need to tread carefully.

Traitor Janitor

In addition to standard syndicate item suite, a Traitor janitor can order the following job-specific items: the overcharged vacuum cleaner, the Port-a-Puke, the Slip and Sign, syndicate cleaner grenades, and the trash compactor. For a job that normally involves a lot of cleaning, many of these items are ironically very messy.

Syndicate cleaner grenades appear to be regular at first, but in fact lay down a mess of acid and space lube in their path. Anyone who holds still will be horribly burned; anyone who runs away or moves into help will smash their face as they slip on the space lube. Finally, the trash compactor, disguised as a regular trash container, will quickly turn any slipped victim you capture into a cube of meat that explodes into messy (and uncloneable) gibs.

You COULD use your maintenance and disposals access to skulk around silently dispatching and disposing your targets... but that would be lame. Traitor janitors are all about live fast, die young!
