"Unbelievable- isn't it?"
I look over to find this guard Hervey? Yeah that was his name Hervey. That's what the dispatch officer had called him when we were summoned up here.
"Completely."
"Don't worry we'll get him." He says sounding completely sure of it.
Me? I am not so sure.
Turns out we were both right. We did get him (midsquat I might add) but it would take months to corner him nevermind figure out who he was. None of that matters now, I don't want to go back outside. So I volunteer to sweep the stacks with this Hervey guy. Turns out we have a few things in common. The big one of course is neither of us is in to taking much in the BS department. We are both older than the other students. Both of us plans to be something else but take our jobs serious enough to hate being called "unarmed."
So we go on our first sweep of the stacks. To Hervey, he enjoys the company. To me- hell I am on the inside instead of being out in that parking garage they had posted me to.
We end up taking long enough for the dispatch officer to radio looking for me and I have to return to the parking garage. As he walks me out, he says
"Ever think of coming inside- becoming a Library Guard?"
"I am now" I say and decide to find out how I can pull that off.
