Way back I worked at a call center for “Explore Talent”. We were located in Oregon but had to tell everyone we were in LA. They even had the LA weather forecast written on the board so we could comment on the weather. Super slimy job taking advantage of desperate people giving them false hope for money. I didn’t last the month.
The rock eater is never as cruel or mean hearted as what we’re seeing now. They just wanted to enjoy their gastric geology in peace.
