“I’d heard of this sort of thing happening in the early 1900s,” you say while taking deep breaths into a paper bag. “But I thought we’d moved past this. I should be in school! I should be at recess with the other kids!”

At press time, you tried to convince your coworkers to strike on your behalf, which failed because you have an incredible salary and your workplace is already unionized (but you thought that meant “married”).
