[00:22.07]夜班
[00:34.64]All this started when I was working as a night guard.
[00:39.05]My first two years as a guard
[00:41.31]I was working at the control center as an operator
[00:44.78]where the entire emergency
[00:47.24]calls and electronic alarms are received.
[00:50.90]But you get pretty tired of that kind of work pretty fast,
[00:54.92]and I don't really like to work inside an office.
[00:58.72]I would rather be out of there in the real world
[01:02.24]where the action is.
[01:04.93]I love to work night shifts,
[01:07.59]I don't know why but you could call me a "night person".
[01:11.80]So when the opportunity came for a transfer I took it.
[01:16.35]I started to work as a patrolling guard on a Monday night.
[01:20.80]The area that I was supposed to guard
[01:23.04]included six business districts,
[01:26.14]five residential 1 districts,
[01:28.07]three industrial areas and two cemeteries 2.
[01:32.30]At some of the places
[01:33.75]that I was suppose to guard I had to go inside
[01:37.36]and use this little device that documents the time I was inside,
[01:42.67]so the owner of that building or house
[01:46.18]and specially 3 the company that I work for
[01:49.22]can see that I'm really doing my job.
[01:53.12]I have never had any problem with graveyard
[01:56.35]or anything like that before and I'm not afraid of the dark.
