Quietly, humbly, the boatswain started to lecture. “I’m the boatswain in charge of loading this ship with supplies before we shove off for a shakedown cruise. I’m in trouble if it doesn’t get done on time.” Then with face crimson in anger, he bellowed, “The brig is still nice and new just waiting to make shirkers of duty like you birds comfortable for a few
days on bread and water. I simply ain’t gonna let you jerks get me in trouble. If you do, I’ll arrange some unlovely extra duty that will make you wish you were back in Sunday school Class. Now, get the heck to work!”
