A day in the life of a click-worker.

We are in Berlin, in 2050, on a cold, windy and stormy evening. Until recently, Ronny Schneider had a tough life collecting deposit bottles in the streets at night. Sunlight would have made him ashamed. 

Full scale digitalisation gave him a new job opportunity: He now spends his nights scraping other people's spam boxes to spare energy and capacity. Internet time is limited to 10 hours a day for every member of society to halt climate change. Therefore, the privileged are outsourcing repetitive tasks to the poor. It is a hard job, both physically and psychologically: spam mailboxes contain all kinds of disturbing and unnecessary content. The position in which Ronny works is far from comfortable. He is bent over the computer for the whole shift, his eyes are red and dull from the blue light and his hands rheumatic from the repetitive keyboard movements. But it's honest money and he does not have to spend his nights in the cold anymore.

In this society, the privileged get to enjoy their computer time and have the luxury of being offline. Some unlucky souls like Ronny have to make a living off being constantly exposed to all the dark sides of the digital world.
