As the long shadow of the first day of the work week descends upon those of us toiling the world over for a paycheck; as the crushing weight of unanswered emails multiply in inboxes, and meetings that could have been emails pile endlessly on; as the oppression of the impossible demands of our day jobs stretch into infinity…
Who, who, WHO among us hasn’t been this terrified Pug, pleading with the void, wriggling to escape, wide-eyed for freedom and yet caught in the steely grip of the need for a decent health plan and the occasional catered office lunch?
