Or deny it?

“I’m sorry, Thomas, but I won’t put myself in danger of genetic mutation for my job.” you state confidently.

“Oh, okay then,” Thomas snickers. “But you do know what this means, don’t you?” You look at him quizzically. “You lose your job, and I get your position!” He laughed. Flooding with anger, you storm out of the diner and go home. Within the next week, without a working job to pay the bills, you can’t afford the rent of your apartment complex. It will take too long to get hired again, you think to yourself. So, you decide to move in with relatives. But, unfortunately, no one in your family will let you stay with them, because they’re all aware of the downward-spiraling economy, and thus they all believe you cost too much to provide for. In the end, you end up holding up a sign by an exit off the 405 freeway in Los Angeles ( You thought it costs less to live there) that says, “ WILL WORK FOR FOOD, SHELTER, AND PENNIES A DAY.” You are never seen by any of your friends or family members again.

THE END
