Also Material Culture Studies drama: today’s episode is kid on phone during class, with subplot 1 student submits assignment on what they did in a class they definitely missed, & subplot 2 someone else’s teaching assistant hours mistakenly billed to protagonist’s budget. Prof writes lecture.
The Far Side cartoon with a bunch of dudes in single pocket dress shirts menacingly waving their pencils at their hapless mark and the caption goes, “Accountant gangsters.”
I worked in commodities for 15 years. We smoked at our desk, drank at our desk, did lines off our desk. The sex & hangover naps were reserved for the conference rooms. It could be called "Debauchery".
I bet so many writers come up with fantastic ideas but the producers are like "Nope. We've got a formula that works & has worked for 60 years!". You know the show is doomed when "This time it's personal!"
Currently working in the billing department of a high-voltage construction contractor - and last September, our biggest client pulled their contract with us.

6’5”. Crazy as hell, probably on ice.
That was one interesting hour from my PM days.
Endless things you do can with Wierdo customers, drug addled cooks, incompetent/corporate hardline managers, servers creating the stupidest drama, the bizzare banter and injokes that develops among the staff, the squidward esque burnout host etc.

Ah yes, the timeline where people only suffer for weeks if it’s a new disease, and no nurse ever misses the vein.
Give me that show, the one where the nurse leaves crying because after 10 minutes of them hurting your 9mo baby in the er you finally tell then to find someone who can do the job.

Running red lights
Stopping in the crosswalk
Passing a school bus
