When McKayla toldΒ
Imogen Howe
she needed time off for a vacation she never said how long. Imogen didn't ask the duration expecting McKayla to offer it herself. However no further details came. McKayla didn't even say the destination. These were all details that seemed basic to a vacation request....

He didn't get paid more. But Keith liked to work more. Because what else was he to do out there inΒ

newcomer
as reply to Old Tape Player
The newcomer was whacking the old tape player with a little brush. That's all the newcomer had been doing with his free time since arrival two weeks ago. Strange behavior, Sanderson thought. You got three hours of freedom a day. Why spend it whacking some arcane

lost
as reply to A House
The thumbprint got lost in the mail. People assumed it was an inside job. The buyer had not bought insurance on it. The internet judged the buyer for it. Who would be crazy enough to buy something for 200 grand and not buy insurance on it?
