They live with Heidi and Dell, who are also like them.It's 2006. Peggy and Greta have two jobs: a job at a call centre, and a job as a moderator for a website.

Margaret lives next door to Heidi and her family. She has a job writing code that analyses data for a political organisation, and she's good at it. Every day she checks an obsolete cellphone she found under her bed, waiting for messages. She struggles to stay sober.
