The Cusp

Labor Camp
Recall: 5/10
Sleep: Good
Sleep Position: Unknown

I'm in some sort of summer camp where they are using us as slave labor to plant trees. The work us ragged with barely any sleep or food. My fellow worker and I organize and gather to escape.

We are hiding in a rocky outcrop in the process of leaving when I look down to the valley below and see a bunch of trucks seemingly working in a gravel pit. Except that I notice a cement truck has robot arms. In fact all the trucks have robot arms! Some sort of alien invasion? I don't know, but I get everyone to duck down so they can't see us. But then I think they are incapable of seeing us, as they don't seem to have eyes or heads, only a pair of robot arms.

These robo trucks are building something, and we watch as they assemble... a giant lazyboy chair with a giant stool in front of it, both facing a humongous flat screen TV. WTF? I figure it's some sort of advertising thing and they're filming a commercial or something.

We make our escape and end up at a restaurant. We sit down, exhausted and hungry and order food. I go down the hall to find the bathroom. In the hall there are two other people, some random guy, and Eric from True Blood. All of a sudden some evil force is in charge, and we're supposed to each pick a door to enter and face some sort of challenge or torture.

We're each supposed to pick our own door, but we all enter the same one so we can work together. In the room stands a man, who disappears and reappears behind the nameless guy with us, cutting him down. The then disappears again. The guy reappears again next to Eric and I, but I'm ready for him and hammer the shit out of him. We win.

I go back into the restaurant and get a ride home with some girl. We talk as we drive and she too spent a summer at that work camp. She says how terrible it was and how she didn't make any money at all. I however did make a bit of money from it, as I have a small wad of bills with me.

This dream was no doubt inspired by the shitty working conditions of the poor chinese workers who built the new generation of Iphones. Fuck all you Iphone using losers, especially if you ran out to buy the new one.
Eric was in there because I can't turn on the TV without seeing that guy lately. CK commercial, the movie Battleship.
