“Naps have always seemed like a luxury I can’t afford.” Rhoda put her hands back on the wheel. “I get it,” she said. “I used to think that way. Get your lazy butt back to work. More hours, more clients. I couldn’t stop. My daughter’s like that too. But that’s capitalism, Marian. I try to tell her: ‘That’s the powers that be.’ They want to squeeze every minute of labor out of you. They want you to think your only value is your work. That anything else is laziness. But it isn’t laziness: it’s resistance.”
