all i'm sayin' is travel time shouldn't be the same rate. travel time is down time, right? i mean, we're not even in the same car as the client. you told me the job was at the house. when we get to it. well, are we shadowing the client right now or are we just going the same way? the company i was with in seattle, these distinctions were made. now, i don't dispute him getting the full whack. seniority and all that. but if i'm getting paid the same hourly rate when we're at the house as i am in this car, that doesn't sit well with me and i feel obliged to say so. 'cause in seattle what you're paying now for so-called travel time was half what we got for actual clock-time with the client. so i just feel we should get more when the job actually commences. i mean, how much are you getting? just as a point of interest. see, i didn't realize there was a sliding scale. larry and rick. mr. avery. fuck. avery's down. fires at it. didn't hit anything. fuck this. is shot in the ankle as he is about to reach the steps. he yelps in pain, tries to raise his gun. stops shooting. tries dragging his shattered ankle to the steps. screams again as his elbow of his gun hand disintegrates. he slips on the first step and tumbles down, the gun bouncing beside him. still trying to get to his feet. he gives up and just lies there, panting.
