From the README:

Microjob can be used only with Node.js 10.5+ and with the --experimental-worker flag activated, otherwise it won't work.

Using node --experimental-worker should make this work.

Workers are currently still experimental in Node.js, and require this flag, since it is possible that there will be changes to the API without a semver-major release; see https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/22940 for the progress on that.

Oops, seems like coding at 10pm isn't the best idea ;)
