More DescriptionEver wondered what your boss does all day?Or if there is a higher - perhaps an existential - significance to Microsoft Word malfunctions?
Filled with sabotage and romance and capturing the relentless monotony and paranoia of office life with unnerving precision, Personal Daysis a scathingly funny look at a group of office workers who have no idea what the unnamed corporation they work for actually does. When it looks like the company may be taken over, fear of redundancy unleashes a delicious mystery.
Meet Pru, the ex-graduate turned spreadsheet drone; Laars, the hysteric whose work anxiety follows him into tooth-grinding dreams; and Jonah, the secret striver who must pick his allegiance... Each struggling to figure out who among them is trying to bring down the company, and why.
