      That's sounds amazing.

      I'm sold on this now. My next gig needs to be working for the government.

      I'll take my own camp bed...

        Not necessary, they are provided by the tax payer.

        Just get a chit from your department head and you can check one out of the stationery department. You will need to bring your own pillow though.

          Yes, he had a bright yellow one of them as well. Awful cars, both of them. But...very rarely broke down.
