Chapter 6 - The Mismanagement of Paperwork
As we've established, the office is a minefield of bureaucratic traps. In this chapter, we'll delve into the most heinous of them all: Paperwork Mismanagement

Meet John, our hapless office drone:
John's desk is a testament to the power of paperwork.
His computer monitor is covered in sticky notes, each one a reminder of the 14 different forms he needs to fill out for that one thing.
His coffee mug is a miniature filing cabinet.
And don't even get him started on the meeting schedule.
