Franz Kafka's ghost materializes at an HR seminar on workplace transformation.
"I once turned into a giant insect, and they still expected me at work Monday morning."
HR nods, taking notes: "Relatable. Continue."
Fyodor Dostoevsky starts reviewing restaurants on Yelp.
Review of a sandwich shop: 'The ham was adequate. But what is ham, truly? Is it not the suffering of the pig made manifest? I sat for six hours contemplating whether I deserved this sandwich. The waiter asked me to leave. Three starsβthe existential crisis was complimentary.'

The writer gasped, horrified: 'I knew I over-edited something.'
