The back story of this dream is that my supervisor is an assassin, and I had been spending my summer on a crew with 2 other guys, cleaning up the scene after she has killed a target. Disposing of the body, properly dealing with blood-borne pathogen risks, you know, the usual. So none of my dream was directly about this, but I knew that's what I'd been doing in the recent past.
It's back-to-school time, and I'm about to get into my regular cleaning routine. I catch my supervisor in the hallway, and tell her I need my pay for my "summer work" still. She says, "oh yeah, yeah sure." After she still hasn't paid me a few days later, my parents come over to my work to demand my pay from her. They reluctantly tell me she has changed her mind, and feels I had been volunteering my time, in actuality. I take her to court.
"Court" is the school library, and she and I are there along with a couple of people to hear our complaints and resolve the conflict. She starts by saying again that I was a volunteer. I rebut with, "Well, if I knew I wasn't going to be getting paid, I would have just taken a summer job at Starbucks then! The point of doing all the dirty work was to get the money. Otherwise I would have been at Starbucks." I can feel that the room is swaying to my side, and I will probably be getting my money soon. The dream is coming to an end, but before it does, I think about how the cat is out of the bag with all these people in the library about the whole assassin business. I hope there aren't any repercussions from that.
