"They've finally completed construction."
Quite impressive, when you consider that it's been only a month since Planetfall. Not even the most productive workers back on Earth could have come close to the speed with which we Hiverians have managed to construct this magnificent city. As I walk down the corridor, I admire the elegance of its design... not a single unnecessary corner, not a single ornament without function. Everything the perfect model of efficacy and efficiency.
I now have a chance to move into my new section. Up until now, I had had to make due with a warehouse for all the functions associated with my job. Hardly enough... there wasn't nearly enough room to store all my forms and papers; I was worried that something horrible would happen to the reams of print-outs I had forced to stack outside.
However, with enough room to store the tonnes of forms, official documents, research reports, and theses, I can now really get down to my job. "The industrious mind is the enlightened mind", after all. I'm most looking forward to the new social experiment facilities I get placed under my care... a chance to finally get some practical results.
And here come the first subjects now...
