Julio

Despite what you may hear from time to time on the crew, I think Julio is a stand-up guy. It isn't personal that he enforces the rules, I don't think. But then, I have heard him say, "If you thin' I don' like like you, I probably don'." But I don't think he shows favoritism. He'll joke with you, pick you up if your sick, you know, human stuff.
I think he's been here 10 years or so. He's around 30. U.S. citizen. Worked his way up with the company. I think he actually works for a company that's contracted with the city. And he goes to school. I don't think he sleeps much.
The radio in the van is on 90 percent of the time, and its always on the Christian station. Always. I've never heard anyone be disrespectful of that. I grew-up around that stuff so I can block it out or whatever. But if I was in a van spouting a religion over the radio that I am not so accustomed to hearing, one that spoke of things that I found offensive or disagreeable or annoying or whatnot, I would consider it an infringement of my rights to have to listen to it.
Sometimes I want to ask Julio if he believes that drugs truly open the door to Satan or if he forgives every single person who wrongs him, but I don't really want to have those conversations.
