You were allowed outside?

Outside? Hell no. We was kept chained in a cave digging out tinsel from the tinsel veins. If you didn't meet quota, they'd cut your air supply in half until ya did. But that was when times was good!

That sounds like heaven compared to the tire factory. We begged for chains so we wouldn't fall into the pits of smouldering rubber and they just gave them to you!!?? We begged to have our air cut in half to give our lungs a break from the smoke-fouled air and you got that even though you were clearly misbehaving??!! SMH

You got smoke-fouled air, you mean your air had a smell, and you had heat? Despite the fact we were in a glacier, we were kept naked so we wouldn't run away, because it often occurred we'd get so skinny from lack of food, we could slip through the chains. I guess they were afraid we might sneak up the mine shaft and absorb some of their precious heat from the tiny stove they kept going night and day, burning our freeze-dried feces!
