Anything?

Ashley and her team were on the site waiting eagerly for the work to start of the Purple Line. Ashley has been to several construction sites before.

Every time construction workers found something they used to call Ashley as she was the expert to have a look. One of these days she was hoping that they would call her up for something big.

Ashley said she used to check her phone every two or three minutes to see if she has skipped a notification. The construction workers kept unearthing small fossils and Ashley was the first to get notified about it. But she was looking for that one special notification…
