[Out along the edges of camp, and in fact all around, are two men armed and dangerous doing safety patrols.

Do you often find it difficulty to perform a policeman's tasks in times of need?

Then perhaps I might suggest a reevaluation in career choices-- after your shift, of course. It is during these hectic times that civilians must rely on law enforcement for protection during vulnerable hours.

I'm afraid I don't see the point in making such comments during a dire situation.

My work ethic sucks. Tell me somethin' I don't know. If I was serious 'bout my whinin', I wouldn't even be out here.

Then I suggest you continue your patrol instead of dawdling here.

I wouldn't be dawdlin' if someone didn't start lecturin' me on work ethic.

As long as you quit the lecturin' now.
