sometimes I did tell them what to do. Sometimes they'd even do it. And sometimes I just built fences around them so that they wouldn't get pecked to death by ducks. Sometimes I turned the wheel just before they rolled over the guardrail into the ravene. Sometimes a little earlier. Sometimes I did the stuff myself. Not too often if I could help it, because that isn't my job.
And, of course, sometimes I was just in the same room at the same time and was smart enough to get the hell out of the way.
