Evenings

She had worked on the counter of her uncle’s butcher’s shop for several years.

She liked it well enough. She got to know the locals that came in for their meat, and it was conveniently close to home. The pay wasn’t great, but he was a good boss. If she hadn’t received the mysterious phone call one evening, she would never have seriously considered packing it in. The unknown voice on the phone was only prepared to tell her so much about the job he was offering. The work would be of a highly confidential nature. It was basically evening work. It would involve a great deal of travelling to locations all around the country. She would use her own car, with all fuel and maintenance expenses paid for. The costs of any overnight accommodation at motels or B&Bs would be reimbursed.

The caller said that the hours would vary greatly, and all assignment details would be given by text on a provided mobile phone. She was also told that she’d only be working for two or three evenings a week, but despite this, the pay would be excellent.

With her agreement, they would meet in a very public place of her own choosing, where he would happily provide her with full details of the work so that she could decide whether or not she wanted the job.

Two days later, on a Saturday, having taken time off for an appointment, she was sitting on a bench beneath the town clock. The place was very busy with shoppers. After a short wait, a man approached. He looked much like any other business man in a suit. They sat for almost an hour, with questions and answers running back and forth. At the end of which, she accepted the job.

Two weeks later, she began her new occupation. By text, she’d been given the location and precise details of what to expect when she arrived. The assignment went well, and a second job in the same week was a good indication of how lucrative her new occupation was going to be. As far as she could tell, it all came down to the fact that some very wealthy people had been saddled with noisy neighbours.

Who would have thought that travelling around the country laying down poisoned baits for noisy dogs could be such a money-spinner!
