“Alright, time to knock off,” I shout as I power down my chainsaw.
Yanking the safety glasses from my face, I glance at the darkening sky. The
first snowstorm of the season isn’t predicted for a few more hours. But my
instincts are telling me it’s time to pack up and get my men home.
“Come on, boss, we got two more in us,” Scott says. He’s the youngest
employee here. Barely eighteen and he’s already got a kid and another on
the way. Like many of the men in Mount Bliss, he depends on the lumber
mill I own to provide for his family.
I shake my head and glance at the felled tree on the forest floor. “Don’t
you have a pretty wife to get home to?”
He finally nods though I don’t miss the worry that crosses his face. The
rural area means that most residents live at poverty level. Closing the mill—
even for a few days—means risking families going hungry. Not that it will
happen on my watch. I might be a grumpy bastard, but I look out for my
men.
We get the tree loaded quickly and are back to the mill within an hour.
While my team gets to work on turning it into lumber we can sell, I finish
the inventory. I’m shutting off the lights and locking the office when Scott
appears.
“What’s wrong with you?” I bark. “Everyone else went home an hour
ago.”
“Wanted to get those last boards cut,” he explains, rubbing his gloved
hands together as the wind blows. The temperature is dropping, and the
mid-afternoon light is fading. He pauses and says softly, “Thanks. I’ll pay
you back one of these days.”
“Get your fool ass out of this weather and home to your family,” I
growl. I didn’t leave the groceries in the back of his truck for his thanks. I
did it because I’ve been around long enough to know that nothing
discourages a man like watching his family go hungry. But now they’ll have
enough to get through the coming week.
