One day on the job

  1. Morning 08:40

    Office hours

    People come in with complaints. You compare the passport, the housing record and the complaint, and look for what does not match. Then you stamp it: Registered or Refused.

  2. Day 13:00

    Walking the town

    The shop, the motor depot, the barracks, the bridge, the closed mine. 16 places in all. You can talk to people and show them things you have found. They remember how you treated them.

    Reports

    Cases have to be closed. You can write what happened. Or you can write what the boss wants. The ending depends on it.

    Counting the knocks

    The pipes knock. There is no number on the screen, you count by ear. Some nights you get called out to a stairwell, and it is dark in there.
