Admiral Zaarin, bear in mind that Abe also 'thought he had a good job' when he was witnessing his fellow muds being beaten all the time, and no doubt being beaten himself! Perhaps he was speaking in terms of floor waxing being better than scrubbing meat grinders. It's definitely safer  |
Yes, that is true but it doesn't change the situation. Furthermore Abe wouldn't have risked his "good job" for saving some meeches. Abe definitely realized that if he weren't immediately shot upon being caught concealing livestock he would have the most dangerous and humiliating job possible in RuptureFarms which would most likely end up in a gruesome death far worse than just being shot.
Also I can't see how and where Abe could technically hide meeches. Meeches are wild predatory creatures after all. Besides he must have hidden a considerable number of them to be able to restore the population (several specimens hidden in RF without professional handling and overwatch == extinct).
