Our next henchman, Jake (Wilfred Walter), is an insurance adjuster of sorts. Jake works for Dr. Feodor Orloff (Bela Lugosi), who is a psychopath and a Human Monster. Orloff, a disgraced physician, has opened up his own insurance agency, where he specializes in taking out life insurance policies as collateral on loans to men with no close relatives.
Orloff is also the staff doctor for the Dearborn Home for the Blind, where he found Jake and enlisted his help. Jake is not exactly gifted in the looks department, but he's as strong as an ox. Once one of Orloff's clients/victims has signed off on the insurance policy, Jake's job is to "adjust" the man's status from living to dead. Orloff then collects on the policy using the Dearborn home as a front.
"We have an especially nice view of the river from here Miss Stuart. Jake, would you care to show her?" |
PERFORMANCE EVALUATION
INSURANCE ADJUSTER
Name: Jake Date: 1939
Supervisor: Dr. Feodor Orloff
Category | Unsatisfactory | Satisfactory | Excellent | Comment |
---|---|---|---|---|
Work Productivity | X | Jake keeps very busy "interviewing" various clients. As a result of those visits, the company has been making a killing, so to speak. | ||
Work Quality | X | The employee needs to work on attention to detail and follow-through. Recently, the daughter of one of our deceased clients, Miss Diana Stuart, has been asking inconvenient questions. Jake has not satisfactorily concluded his interveiw with her. | ||
Communication/ Work Relationships |
X | Jake and I have a very simple work relationship. I slip him messages in Braille, and off he goes. | ||
Initiative | X | In spite of his disability, the employee always manages to find his man. | ||
Dependability | X | Lately Jake has been tending to a sick friend at the home. This is all well and good, but he also needs to keep in mind his responsibilities to me. |
Summary: Jake is a great help in dealing with our policyholders. However, he needs to be careful that his personal life and infatuation with Miss Stuart don't get in the way of his duties.
