i was working in the compressor, and out of nowhere the supervisor calls me up to the office and says, we're gonna give you a shredder machine, and send you on down to the warehouse. we want you to get rid of all the documents stored out there. nope. and i didn't ask. well, it's pretty boring work, shredding -- you gotta find some way to entertain your mind. so yeah, i took a look. there was a lot of dull stuff -- vacation schedules, the like. but then there were a few memos about the holding ponds. the water in them. they had readings from test wells, stuff like that. that's right. course as it turns out, i'm not a very good employee. well. there were a few documents that i somehow didn't get around to shredding. that i kept instead. at the time, i thought, i got six kids, some of 'em want to go to college. i can't afford to lose my job. i told myself i was being honorable. but there's nothing honorable in what i did. maybe that's why they picked me for the job. maybe they knew what kind of man i was.
