After reading the full people mover grand jury report, I have drawn two conclusions. 1. It should be illegal for aspiring screenwriters to write a grand jury report, and 2. The contractors need to be fired into the fucking sun

Separate train of thought - my aunt works front office stuff for construction in Edmonton. A couple Christmases ago, she was telling us about an awful boss she'd had a couple firms ago. Real liar, scammer, greedy asshole, nobody working with him at the firm could even stand him.

Anyways, the story ends - "he eventually had to split town and I think he's working in LA now!" We looked him up after the story and he's one of the heads on the APM project 🤦
