劳资冲突

不过一个月，家里又堆积了一堆乖小宝的画作。妈妈粗粗整理一番，愁上心头，以这个速度，得买多大豪宅才装得下这么多的艺术品啊。

妈妈和乖小宝提出，以后只有很好很好的作品妈妈才收购。乖小宝正因为爸爸妈妈让乖小宝睡觉不给看Blue’s Clues而大不爽，这下可找到发泄口了。。。

I am an artist, I used to get money, but now you took my job away, I am going to be very poor，just like the Indians。 [也有有钱的印第安人好不好] I am just going to be a very poor person living in a rich country. [呵呵，富国穷人是比穷国穷人更痛苦]

乖小宝越说越委屈，晶莹的金豆豆滔滔不绝：I am just a kid, you know，I can’t draw like those people（artists in the art museum）, but I have been practicing, I work really hard every day! But now you fire me! My art will never be in the museum, all the spaces are taken by those people！

妈妈更正，如果画得好，艺术馆没位子也会腾出位子来的。自管自地沉浸在想象的悲惨世界中的乖小宝听了有如火上浇油：You just don’t like me, do you？You don’t want me to be famous！I used to have a job！[这是什么伪艺术家嘛，没人付钱就不画了？！]

虽然妈妈心里不敢苟同，但乖小宝的哭诉还是把妈妈浓浓的罪恶感勾起。[这年头，没有HR介入，想开除个人不容易啊] 罢了，接着收购就是了！劳资冲突就以万恶不赦的资本家的节节退让而结束了。
