Open source transcript

MAYBE I COULD PERMANENTLY WORK AT HOME.

NO PROBLEM. I JUST NEED A FEW THINGS FROM YOU TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE WORKING.

SUCH AS?

WELL, OBVIOUSLY, I NEED FREQUENT STATUS REPORTS.

SOUNDS REASONABLE.

AND I'LL NEED TO TRACK YOUR KEYSTROKES AND YOUR PHONE'S LOCATION.

WOW. WELL, OKAY.

I GUESS I CAN GET USED TO THAT IN RETURN FOR MY FREEDOM TO WORK AT HOME.

NOW THAT IVE LOOSENED YOU UP, LET'S TALK ABOUT FITTING YOU FOR A BODY CAM.
