What did you see when you got back to work?
Well, usually when I'd taken breaks from work before at Enron, my 19-year-old colleague had covered my work while I was away.
But in this instance, he decided not to do that, so I had an incredible amount of work to do in probably...
I had two or three days before month's end.
So I was doing data entry on the weekend and after hours and working unbelievably hard and also I was in quite a bit of strife in the office as well.
People were starting to get a bit sort of like difficult and aggressive with me and I was becoming a bit unstable so I was being a bit difficult and aggressive back.
Yeah, it was very uncomfortable.
What was it that finally pushed you to resign from Enron?
I didn't resign.
I just walked out.
I came into work after a weekend and I'd been having a lot of questions being asked at work about can we see a CV, who are you, who are your friends.
Who are your friends?
Yeah, yeah, they're a bit...
paranoid about who my friends in London were.
So there was all of that.
And then I came into work on a Monday and instead of getting about five emails over the weekend, I'd had about a hundred.
And I looked at about the first five or six of them and
Yeah, I felt very uncomfortable at that point and I just walked out and I looked down at the Thames and I thought, I think I'd better go back to Australia.
So I just kind of took off.
But the emails were kind of pretty disturbing.
