<P>I will allow myself one story.</P> <P>There was a Produce Market in LA. A very dangerous part of town. My assignment was to load up produce heading to the east coast and was assured by my dispatcher that I dont have to do anything but "Count the children" as each pallet went into the trailer.</P> <P>One person being very clean, sober and eager to work won himself a job counting the freight as I stood over him double checking. In exchange I earned intelligence on who are workers trying to get themselves a better position in life, who are lazy and prositutes and other bits of knowledge.</P> <P>That information is to prove useful as I had other loads out of that market and put him to work every time. One day I was told that the worker will be leaving town to go to school and that I would need to find another counter (With a short list of "Good" workers)</P> <P>The rest of the riff raff simply played thier game squatting in the sidewalk along the market bumming off other people who are also drivers. Some of the drivers were wise and stayed out of trouble... others were not so lucky.</P>
