The Office is working life as most of us know it. Underpaid dead-end jobs, irritating colleagues and a smug, sexist boss. A place where trivial things take on ridiculous importance. Filmed documentary-style and set in a branch of Wernham Hoggs, a stationery company, The Office has everything you never want to encounter but probably have: office politics, management jargon, sycophants, malicious gossip, practical jokes, silly squabbles, stifled ambitions, jealousies, frustration and, of course, the occasional knife in the back. Office workers will love it.
