I have a big big fear of places with spooky atmospheres. I don't know if this is normal for someone my age. I'm 31.
I've only just discovered this in my new job. We basically have to walk through massive vast very old warehouses locking them up, walking through the dark pretty often with just a torch.
On the outside of these warehouses is fenced off woodlands, it's desolate enough for badgers to roam around. It's basically a situation where if you see a person walking around it's pretty much guaranteed they either have some mental problem or bad intentions of stealing, because they would have had to climb over these fences in the middle of nowhere at some ungodly hour of the night.
Among the people I work with there's varied opinions about the night shifts. The two Africans I worked with hated the dark, they would even hate the evening shifts in winter when it gets dark early, a few other people I've spoke to said they wouldn't do it, but the other guards on the night shift seem to be immune to this type of fear.
The question is do any of you on this forum think you would experience this fear being in this type of situation?
I don't know why this mentality arises, I have no belief in ghosts and the chances of a break in at these warehouses is slim to none, but my imagination just wanders.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
