Enbagggcado

- ¿Alguna vez estuviste enbagggcado, pibe? – me preguntó Monsieur Pontmercy.
- No, señor – dudé un segundo – Pero conozco el trabajo de puerto y, lo demás, lo puedo aprender.
- Es un tgggabajo de miegggda, nene – se rió el francés – pegggo ahoggga es lo único que tengo paggga dagggte. La cosa está bggggava y labugggo en la oficina no hay, pegggo con esto, poggg ahí podés zafaggg un tiempo.

Monsieur Pontmercy (él lo pgggonunciaba “pontmegggzí”) era un francés bajito, robusto y de mal carácter, que murió de un infarto -probablemente producto de un exceso de Marlboro Lights- hace cosa de cinco años. Nos conocíamos poco, nomás de compartir algún whisky en una exposición de cuyo nombre preferiría no acordarme, y de intercambiar tarjetas con la amabilidad que corresponde a un segundón, como era yo en Tarradelli, que de golpe se encuentra a sí mismo de tragos con un tipo que ya es un empresario reconocido en el ambiente.

El francés me dio, cuando me quedé sin trabajo, algo que nadie me había dado: una oportunidad de ganarme el jornal, al menos mientras pintaba algo mejor.

Está bien, me dio un trabajo semisuicida, que incluía viajes en lancha al orto del río y trepadas por escalas de gato. Un trabajo que incluía codearse con una simpática manga de atorrantes descastados, de espíritus libres, de amantes de la aventura, de piratas de agua dulce, de tipos que siempre tuvieron y siempre tendrán una relación de profundo odio e irrefrenable amor para con su trabajo, ese de andar saltando de barco en barco. Una logia de tipos, muchos de ellos, sin salida, sin opción, que trabajan de eso porque es lo único que saben hacer.

O lo que aman hacer.

Creo que ni ellos lo saben.

Y, aúnque fuera un laburo peligroso y siempre mal pago, cualquier cosa era mejor que quedarme al pedo y en casa, escuchando a mi mujer.

    Now Paul is a real estate novelist
    Who never had time for a wife
    And he’s talkin’ with Davy, who’s still in the Navy
    And probably will be for life
