This is a set. A set based on reality, based on time and based on order. An office in an on-office space.
The set is for a serf with no identity. The serf sits in space, a cubicle and works. The labour contributes to nothing more than money.
The serf is constantly harassed by the noble boss, pouring themselves grotesquely over the serf. Nothing works, the printer jams, spitting out blank paper. What can the nameless serf do in an office?
