Overworked?
You’re Not the First
By Ethan Hopper

Turns out we’ve complained about our overflowing
inboxes since the dawn of overtime
Neanderthal,
40,000 BC
Sorry, I can’t make
it to your cave-
painting-and-wine
thing. I’ve been
crashing on this
new wheel design
since this morning,
and we still have to
submit the specs
for the fire concept
to engineering.
