Returned from long years in interstellar space to longer decades missed on Earth, a starship’s crew face their biggest obstacle yet: Human Resources.
Fresh off their victorious defense of a starship captain on mutiny charges, attorneys Calvin Tondini and Sara Seastrom must now pivot to a new challenge: defending the same starship crew’s hard-earned salaries. Bureaucrats citing relativity want to apply a different clock than bargained for in the crew’s original contract.
Whatever may be said about Einstein, time, and space, the crew’s attorneys know that money isn’t relative. Check out Took Their Wages for a sober analysis of how to address this timely question.
A short story.





This sounds like an interesting book, and I will have to add it to my to be read list. The idea of social adjustments to the future of star travel is a very untouched topic with only a few good examples out there in science fiction.
I hope you like it! Just so you know, it’s a short story. I edited the original post to make that more clear.
Thank you for stopping by!
