(The scene: Meglet and Lilygirl getting ready for Auskick with Wuff. The conversation is overheard.)

Wuff: When we get home, I'd like you girls to pick up the clothes and books on the floor in your room, and you can get a dollar each.

Lilygirl: Okay.

Meglet: I don't want to.

Wuff: Well, you don't have to, but if Lilygirl does it all, she can have two dollars, since she's done two lots of work.

Meglet: Well, it's not worth it. It's too much work for a dollar. We should get more.




... My daughter, future union representative.

The problem with commerce, right? Poor incentive. Thanks for the reminder that we need to have value in the thing itself. Tough to sell the value of a tidy room to a child that young... Thinking cap on. Will let you know if I come up with anything.
