Part of the story had to do with maybe just such cabin fever and necessary sociability.

While in Alaska, the Mexican I worked with in the CV and an illegal buddy had the pressing compulsion to visit a whorehouse. After they left, he expressed buyers' remorse due to the fact that he had squandered $600.00. The other illegal told him not to feel so bad about $600.00, he himself had been suckered for something like $10,000.00

Wow. That man must have really needed some "quality time".
