As Karen types out memos, you stay still, as instructed.
After 30 minutes, she turns her head to you.
"The Company has a contingency plan for accidents such as yours. The plan will take care of you until the machine can unshrink you, which might take six months or a year."
"Worker's Comp should compensate me generously," you said fiercely.
"Funny that you should mention that," she said matter-of-factly. "Firstly, you will be on salary until you are healed and you won't have to work. Secondly, you will get a bonus. You see, when the C-Suite executives contemplated such a dangerous, expensive accident happening, they came up with a plan to mitigate the damage. A certain type of women love miniatures. Three such women, being quite powerful, got their institutions to contribute $1 million to the Accident Victim Caretaking Fund. One such candidate, the one you choose, will have the responsibility to take care of you. You get half, we get half. And since the money only makes a woman a candidate, you get to pick and both you and us get a million dollars multiple times! In fact, I just sent the email informing the ladies that the contingency has come to pass."
