AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'A darkly humorous three part look at the psychology, graft and politics of the office work environment. In "Dave's Lunchtime Dos and Don'ts," Steven revels in his easy manipulation of a lonely, sexually frustrated, wealthy older man , until his plan goes horribly wrong. In "Brian Meets His Match" a pack of office workers all use the same internet dating service. Their obsessive rules of engagement are challenged by the arrival of the new boy,- plain old Brian. In "Fiona's Functions" we discover how an older and near-untrainable box office worker deals with the encroachment of technology and her seemingly pre-pubescent new boss.'
