#43 did not care for his lot in life. He did not enjoy the dorms. He did not enjoy the fact that there was never a good spot at the TV during the news to watch the weathergirl. He did not enjoy the fact that he had to work as a janitor when others had wonderful jobs like the accounting department.
At least, he admitted, he wasn’t forced to work in Inventory with those… things. He didn’t even want to call them people. He wondered who let them into the country to begin with.
A hierarchy of those that came first did not seem appropriate. Wouldn’t it be better to rotate those newly created into the established positions? That seemed more fair to him. But he did not speak up about it. #37 raised a fuss and was taken away for observation. That was a week ago and he’d not come back.
#43 wondered what Jonah was up to. Had he found a new job? Was he happy there? There were not a lot of people that the original considered a friend, but Jonah was one of them.
He also wanted to call the original’s mother. #18 had done this. He skipped his lunch break to call her. After that, they locked down the phones. #43 did not like it. He did not like it one bit.
