The newspaper Bobby stole from his neighbor’s lawn was sprawled across his kitchen table, the classifieds spread wide. Bobby ran his pen hand across the pages, smudging his heel black with ink, and looked for any job he was qualified for. Most jobs required at least a high-school diploma, which Bobby didn’t have, or it required a skill he didn’t have. Spending his teen years drugged in prisons and mental institutions didn’t aid in resumé building. His hand traveled down a newspaper column and stopped. The mall advertised for new security guards. He circled the ad in red.
