In the background....

After the intense background investigation paperwork that was completed months in advance, which included accounting for an address and place of work for every single day of every single month for the last 7 years, and providing a name and address of somebody who could verify that you lived at address X and providing yet another person who could verify that you worked at job Y, and creating a mountain of paperwork for somebody that has had a lot of jobs and a lot of addresses and also creating frustration for somebody who is not a big fan of run-on sentences who is now forced to write a very long one, as this is the only proper way to describe such a thorough background check that in the end....DIDN'T GET DONE.

So after a week, I don't have computer access. And the warden looks like he wants to fight me. And he looks like Chuck Norris, except he has this big Oval Office overlooking the prison grounds and he is in charge of fighting anybody that doesn't have their background check completed.

But they still let me use liquid nitrogen to freeze warts off another man's penis. Which is nice of them. I guess they assume that nothing in the unfinished background check will create an urgent need to prohibit me from such enlightening clinical activity.


Long weekend for this Govvy Employee!

  2. Hang in there man. I'm sure you handled that liquid nitrogen with aplomb and access will follow.

    BTW: how come your sidebar says Rotation 10 through Sept. 6 2010, but graduation Aug. 14 2010? What gives? Are you graduating in Guayaquil?

  3. Chris- fixed to say August 6th, as my last day in Ecuador....graduating 8 days later on the 14th. Thanks for catching that! I would've just stayed in Guayaquil for a month extra accidentally.
