auntie Emma...
Tempered by the opportunities at the location...
- one had a heavy bag - worked, but tempting even when not blocked
- going for single cups of coffee taught the value of Espresso machines
- tigering through byzantine insurance corridors as suits were decreed
- (was later given key to fitness room in other building when working 2 6H shifts)
- hunting 3-5 cm real bugs in IBM high security scene (2 or 3 friskings / month)
- going outside and fuming at the entry level controls when checked 3rd time / day
