I had an amazing event occur two days ago. The lieutenant in charge of the shower crew pulled me aside at dinner to ask if I thought it would be possible to clean the entire unit with only ten workers."Sure," I replied, "but the showers need to get completely clean first. In their current condition we'll be out all night."
"Okay. I was thinking about moving shower crew back to south hall - where you used to be. Do you think you can find ten hard workers?"
"Yes, sir."
"Alright. Give me a list on Sunday night of the guys you want down there with you. Make sure four of them are minorities, too."
I had just been asked to create my own custom dorm, unheard of for any inmate. I chose quite a few quickly, friends that I play games with and also work alongside. For the last five I was stuck so I asked a few guys around the dorm and got four more.
I couldn't figure out or persuade anyone to fill the last spot so I prayed about it, left the spot blank, and turned in my list. I hope we willl move quickly. This dorm is getting crazy with tattooing, smoiking, and just plain craziness. A small, quiet dorm would be a real blessing.
