Mr. Graef. Directly under me, the day shift is seven or eight, and we have a few on the night shift also. We work quite close to this other department—which does photographic work also, and we have a sink on our side for camera work and then there is a developing sink back to back, at which this other department develops their work.
Mr. Jenner. What do they do?
Mr. Graef. Setting type photographically. So, out of these many people, some of them are more prone to carry tales and others, of course, and you have to weigh the evidence, we'll say, and some of the people that had come to me during this time and just mentioned, or we'll say, scuttlebutt that went around about Lee being hard to get along with, where, in fact, some of the people are hard to get along with themselves, so you just had to more or less try to get along with everyone. We all have to do that and it wasn't until this scene happened that I saw how Lee's temper worked, but the—the overwhelming mass of evidence—everyone it seemed no one liked him.
Mr. Jenner. He had no friends?
Mr. Graef. No friends.
Mr. Jenner. And he didn't appear to you to seek to cultivate any?
Mr. Graef. By this time, you see, this 6 months had elapsed and at this time work was suffering and he at this time—it was definite that he had no friends. Everyone couldn't be wrong, and so all of this evidence weighed against the decision to keep him on as an employee.
Mr. Jenner. It culminated in his discharge.
Mr. Graef. In his dismissal?
Mr. Jenner. All right, I guess that's about it. Thank you.
