James woke up early next morning. He wanted to say hello to his little ponies before they left for school.
Toby: *eating soup*
Melissa: All we get to eat is soup. It's not fair. There has to be something else for us to eat around here.
James: *Arrives* Or at least something else for us to buy.
Toby: Dad!
James: Hello Toby. I thought I'd get up a little earlier then usual, and see you two before you left for school.
Toby: Thanks dad.
Melissa: Thank you.
James: Where's your mom?
Toby: She's outside.
James: *Walks out of house*
Martha: *sees James* James, what are you doing up so early?
James: I just wanted to see the kids.
Martha: You're such a good parent.
James: I don't feel like one.
Martha: Why?
James: I don't get our family enough money for what they want.
Martha: That doesn't mean you're a bad parent James *Hugs James* It's just like you said yesterday. Your boss is greedy.
James: Yeah. I did say he was.
Martha: And you're a great parent. You always try your best for us, and that's good.
James: Thank you *Kisses Martha*
Martha: *Kisses James*
James: *Checks clock* Now, I gotta get going.
Martha: So much for seeing us.
James: Unfortunately. I'll see you when I get back *Leaves house*
Now, walking was the only way for James to get to the steel mills. They didn't have carts, or humans, or a railway line going from his house to the steel mill.
Five minutes later, lots of ponies were outside the steel mill, complaining.
Workers: Let us in!! We want to work!!
Henry: Well too bad! I want to get this bargaining agreement over with, but the AA keeps being a pain about it.
James: Jack, what's happening?
Jack: Henry won't let us in.
Larry: It's just like he said. It's all because of that stupid bargaining agreement.
Jack: Henry! Let us in, now!!
Henry: Go away, and come back tomorrow!!
James: I'm going home.
Larry: What are you talking about? You can't leave.
James: I can, and I will. Don't you understand that Frick won't let anypony in? We've got to face facts, and go home. *Walks home*
Jack: *Sighs* I swear Larry. If anything like having us locked out continues, we start the strike.
