RIP tc
I leave all my belongings to CE. You all can distribute it equally amongst one another.

Yeah, all these darn companies that need to be audited... I'm the new guy around, so I get the honor of doing inventory observations. Shouldn't be too bad since I'll be in a warehouse for basically all of it, but I still hate that I'm being sent here.

We drove through there on the way to California when I was a kid and had to stop at a McDonald's to pee.

I honestly don't believe some of them ever saw someone white in person before. It's like the whole place stopped and stared at us. It was weird as hell like out of a movie.

Was the city considered as dangerous back then? I really don't know if it's just something that was average and turned worse, or if it's always somehow been St. Louis' brother that St. Louis is even ashamed of.

Also, everything was fine; not that bad of a drive since I was in the warehouse, and nothing was too dangerous there. The job itself...ehhhhhhh. It was quick, but I'm also pretty afraid that the testing was messed up by me due to a bunch of unforeseen circumstances that even my senior was shocked by.

Eh, if you are there during the day you should be fine. It get super sketchy at night, but you can also go to one of the many strip clubs if you are there at night, so it's a tradeoff.

I used to love those strip clubs, good memories.

I'm an auditor for a Big 4 Accounting firm. Since I'm the new guy, I get to be sent on these inventory count trips (this being my 2nd one). I mean, in all reality, it probably is no more dangerous than me going to my actual office (downtown St. Louis), but East St. Louis just has that reputation (and I don't have to go to my office that much with flexible scheduling that allows employees to work from home as much as they want/need to).

It's technically a separate town, but from what I understand, they split from East St. Louis (still have a crime grade of D- compared to East StL's F). I won't say anymore because I don't really want to give away where I was working due to the nature of my work. It's south of East St. Louis, but again, you have to ask if it's really even distinct.
