A Dirty Job

The dirt.
Monday 1 October 2007

I'm just plodding along at the moment, getting used to the sleep pattern. I think I'm there, then I'll just totally crash. It's a new experience for me. I've been here two weeks now - I think it might take a couple of months before I'm in control.

Got a bit more intel on the characters at work - one has done 16 years of hard time, eight of which was for armed robbery. The thing is, he's fifty but looks thirty-five, so he must be doing something right. Another is 'riddled with Hep C' and is, by all accounts, a 'spitter'. Luckily I've had my shots, but still. Two are professional conmen - well, one is a conwoman, and allegedly has tricked so many old people out of their pensions that three of them have 24/7 protective watch. Junkies, dealers and boozers basically makes up the rest.

All, it would appear, would slit your throat and/or sell their own grandmothers to make a deal.

And these, I'm told, are the good ones. The real scum got booted out. As said before, we're only really half-full at the moment, so Lord only knows what treasures are waiting for me around the corner.

Bring it on.
