When Jake Morrison and Ethan Carter signed up to work for a local construction company, they expected long hours, tough jobs, and the occasional difficult customer.

What they didn’t expect was being asked to spend their weekend working on their boss’s personal home.

The request came late on a Friday afternoon.

The crew had just finished a demanding week on a commercial building project when their supervisor, Rick Thompson, gathered several workers together.

“I need a favor,” he said.

The workers exchanged uncertain looks.

Rick explained that he was renovating his own house and wanted some help painting the exterior.

According to him, it would only take a day.

At first, the request sounded voluntary.

But as the conversation continued, many employees felt increasing pressure to agree.

Nobody wanted to disappoint the boss.

Nobody wanted to risk future opportunities.

So several workers reluctantly accepted.

Saturday morning arrived.

Jake and Ethan pulled into Rick’s driveway expecting a straightforward painting job.

Instead, they found something unusual.

Cameras.

Lots of cameras.

Several were mounted around the property.

Others sat on tripods.

One appeared to be attached to a drone.

“What’s all this?” Ethan asked.
