Greg, 51, from Connecticut, has been in Denver ~15 years. He describes himself as a self-made “tester” who tries others’ drugs to judge them — sometimes multiple substances at once — and says he used two things five minutes before the interview. He worked for a temporary fence company for several years before drugs took over.
Greg says he’s been homeless since he was 16 (cites the economy and addiction as causes). The interview includes some blunt, joking bargaining about the $20 interview payment and reveals fatigue with the process; overall he’s frank, irreverent, and direct about drug use and survival on the street.
