Three inspectors. One hanging clipboard.

The felt rewards people who can hang a floating tip back on the bars.

Cage inspector

Opened Suite 4 in 2004. Paper-mill kid. Stops conversations that want epoxy before a mic.

Socket clerk

Lawrence evenings. Writes shallow, mid, long. Unsentimental about matching-set stamps.

Stamp hand

Keeps the pad wet in January. Will not ink a long well onto a short tip as a kindness.
