Trash duty for a nice change

Shortly after the last entry one of the guards came in and asked if anyone wanted to do work in the hallway. It was about 1:00 AM and I was bored and wide awake so I said I'd go.

Rico and I went out into the hallway to gather all the
trash. It was nice to get outside of the dorm late when
everything was quiet. We were able to talk and joke
around with a few of the guards.

While I was outside one of the guys still on lockdown tried to pick a fight with one of the guards. Yeah, good idea. Pick a fight with the only guys who can get you off lockdown and in the meantime they can pepper spray and gas you to their heart's content. Obviously, that did not go well. He was handcuffed and taken to segregation lockup. I hope he is good friends with himself because that's the only person he'll see for a while.

So the only work I've done since I arrived at this unit is a quick hall clean up and a trip to the dumpsters with the remains of dinner from the dining hall. Not the most glamorous but a good break from the norm.
