Everything is swept on a daily basis; everything is swept under the rug... The white doctors' smock that an "office zombie" no longer needs is dusted daily. Working means getting rid of things. Do everything possible to keep a clean slate. Frustrations are passed on to other employees and the resulting consequences, such as stress-related illnesses (cancer, burnout, depression, compulsions, suicides, etc.), are covered up and swept under the rug with a broom. There are power struggles; strategic alliances are established. The goal is to protect one's own advantage in order to gobble up "perks". Everything is supposedly sacred, and the facade hides dark abysses. The abyss of the "bunker"! Pressure, stress, hyperactivity due to bore- dom, existential fears due to threats of losing your job if you do not play along... Team spirit is based on lies and deceit. People complain and gossip, but only behind other people's backs. Rumour mongering at its finest. Proof and alibis are invented. Employees are constantly monitored so that their pressure points are exposed when they start questioning the perk club's presence in the bunker. Still, even the best "perk profiteers" are not happy because they are under constant pressure to make sure that nothing is exposed... Maybe they'd like some marijuana instead! Perhaps there are even better options?
