The JC Fine Structure

by Robert Adams

Minor offenses, such as leaving clothes left on the cabin floor, often resulted in a $1.00 fine.  The most severe penalties in my day were ones where the guilty party was fined $50 and given four licks.  Those cases were almost always a Head Cook who had been through a disastrous week, forfeiting all of his bonuses in addition to the fine.
