>>>>>[Jas, someone tried to break into your house the other night. No one
knows what was in there other than what you put on your insurance so the
police do not think that there is anything missing. I told your agent that
you were on vacation and that she should take care of whatever needed to be
taken care of and that you would deal with the paperwork when you got back, I
hope I did the right thing, tell me I did the right thing, I've never had to
do anything like that before. The place was a mess. Who ever broke in looked
like the more wanted to rearrange the furniture than steal anything. Some of
your art work was damaged by gun fire (not from the bad guys, so I hear...
Rumor has it that CI-Cops showed up when the alarms went off then Lone Star
and Knight Errant (You really should tell someone when you take out a private
contract for security...) showed up. Whoever was inside managed to get away
but Lone Star and KE and CI-C went at it for a couple minutes, each thinking
that the others were part of the group of thieves. They finally settled down
and stopped shooting at one another then started faking the reports).

I tried to get ahold of the camera footage but that had been destroyed in
the fire fight or stolen or never existed -- depends on which report you
read.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Hey, I wasnt supposed to tell you this but -- There is an opening
here
at IS&M that you might be more than interested in.

How does -- Head of Software Development sound to you?

We have to advertise it internal first (the job description is in the same place
as the coffee roster -- behind the vending machine in the Pit) before we
go external. I just got promoted to...ready for this? Head of Operations!

Whatever THAT is supposed to mean. I accepted the offer but it doesnt seem
like I will be doing all that much more than what I was doing before.

The new job (and title) is yours if you want it. You need to get your ass
back into town NOW so you can deal with the paper work. Oh, they are gonna
make you take drug and btl tests so you better be clean.
