How To Survive As A Player Novel

Eu fui linchada na internet pelas minhas próprias funcionárias que eram mães. Elas começaram a espalhar que a creche gratuita da empresa, feita especialmente para os filhos delas, era na verdade uma "prisão de crianças", um truque cruel para forçar horas extras. O que elas não sabiam era que aquela creche foi o meu projeto mais caro e mais amado: eu importei equipamentos de ponta, contratei professores de fora do país, montei uma estrutura em que cada criança custava, em média, oito mil reais por mês. Ainda assim, a internet inteira caiu matando em cima de mim, me chamando de palhaça, de hipócrita, de capitalista nojenta. Foi aí que eu perdi a paciência e soltei um comunicado interno para todos os funcionários: [Para atender ao desejo de autonomia das famílias na criação dos filhos, a empresa decidiu encerrar o serviço de creche gratuita. A partir de hoje, será substituído por um auxílio‑creche: funcionários que se encaixarem nos critérios receberão 200 reais por mês.] Bastou o aviso ser enviado para o caos começar. As mesmas mães que me xingavam estão agora em massa na porta da minha sala, implorando para eu não fechar a creche.
