116. That's why I got burned out on my job.
I worked at the courthouse for quite a few years. Most of the trials I took down were civil, where people were just fighting over money, but there were some felonies. Being around all those bad vibes of people being mad at the other side got to me, as did the lawyers and judges who got mad at me and popped off for no reason except to feed their egoes. Looking at color pics of dead bodies is not for the faint hearted either.

The stress got to me after I had to be in the same courtroom with some homegrown American domestic terrorists in civil court, and I ran off screaming and said I would not debase myself like that anymore.
