Sometimes you never entirely know a man even if you spend a lot of time with them.
I feel like that about one of my old employees, then Jack was a quiet guy.
He never got into any trouble and he always handled the repairs that were on his schedule, and one customer had a complaint about Jack, but it was about a service that was too expensive. No one ever complained about his character. I never would have let Jack go from the Heating and Air Conditioning service business. He was an asset to the company, then when he moved out of town, I was sad to see him go. I did not hear his name again until last weekend when I was watching the news. The name caught me off guard and I had to rewind the DVR to watch the news story a fifth time. It was the guy that used to work for me that was featured in the news story. The guy was arrested for being part of a large drug ring in town. He was arrested with bags of cocaine, meth, and crack. He had guns and money in the car too. I was really surprised to hear his name and see his face. I thought about going down to the jail to see if the guy needed any help, but my fiance did not want me to get involved. She told me that 2 years have passed since the guy worked for me and he entirely is not the same employee that I remember. I guess she is right, but I feel bad for the guy.
