Chapter 4 - My Cleaning Badge Has A Twin
The cleaning contractor issued RFID badges.
Mine never left my uniform except when I slept.

If suspicious documents appeared after hours, the logs could point toward me.
If a camera showed someone in a cleaning uniform, even better.

That mattered.
Northgate could alter its internal report.

The humiliation Travis designed had accidentally created a second evidence trail he did not control.
