Psychological
Daniel: Primary Assignment
Everyone spoke about Daniel as if he were still part of the team. They referenced his notes, forwarded his emails, asked if I’d seen him that morning. I answered carefully at first, assuming I’d missed something obvious. A sick day. A schedule change.

The twelve jurors, otherwise known as 'The gods of guilt', filed back into the courtroom, solemn and tentative, they took their seats. Any seasoned lawyer who was worth his or her salt, would note by their body language and facial expressions that all was not well.

The Order of Care
Angel works the day shift at his local neighborhood animal shelter and begins his day the same way every day. Consistency is not a preference but a method. He clocks in at 7:00 a.m., places his lunch on the left shelf, second position, in the refrigerator, and ties his apron with a double knot that can be untied quickly. The animal shelter requires procedures; Angel requires them to function efficiently.
