    Its 2050, you are waiting outside of the HR Office waiting for them to talk to you. You’re certain that your job has just been replaced by a robot.

    Fuck this shit, you thought, 90% of the people are unemployed anyways, fuck this 16 hour shift.

    You pull out your hand terminal (yes a “hand terminal”, as “smartphones” no longer have local storage now, almost all computing is done on cloud) and start typing in your journal app: “Down with the regime, Down with tyranny!”. You tap “save”.

    “Action not authorized. This incident has been reported”

    2 seconds later, you can hear sirens in the distance growing louder and louder.
