I ask the Engineer if he was working for the Company when Ivan was still there. Did he wear Tech Jumpers and Work Boots. The Engineer was surprised by my question and said, yes Ivan wore the Tech Jumpers and Work boots. I then asked if Ivan died on site. And the Engineer said yes Ivan died on site. So, I told the Engineer and the Inventory guy about hearing Boots steps and not finding anyone at the site.<\/p>\n<p>The next time the Engineer and I met the Inventory Guy didn&#8217;t show. The Engineer said he quit.<\/p>\n<p>So I called the Inventory Guy and asked him why he quit. He said he was in late doing a Physical Inventory and he heard Boots,\u00a0 just as plain as day. He thought one of the Boiler Techs was playing a trick on him. But he looked all over and saw no one there.\u00a0 He said he went out to the lot and drove home. That the hair on the back of his neck was standing up. And that he is getting a new job.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was about 10 pm and I am working late merging 2 data bases.
