Fred's time at the Rock Quarry always seemed like a decent gig. There are worse
things than manning an animal to lift boulders while you chat with your best friend.
One major problem was that the place was changing names on a regular basis - and
that can't be good for business. Some accounts have Fred's regular place of
employment being identified by 18 different names.
Honorable mention: W.C. Cogswell of Cogswell Cogs (they had nothing on the

Perhaps the king of nefarious deeds, this brothel owner and
influential politico is no treat to work for. Aside from his
excessive potty mouth (unless you enjoy being called a

rest the souls of that poor family... and pussy's half price for
the next 15 minutes." What a sweetheart!
