Knights among toner cartridges ( infosec.pub )

(Business people) speaking a language familiar and dear to them. Its portentous nouns and verbs invest ordinary events with high adventure; executives walk among toner cartridges, caparisoned like knights. We should tolerate them - every person of spirit wants to ride a white horse. -William Strunk Jr. (The Elements of Style)

I swear that I have worked in a place like this, all the way down to the stupid exposed ducts. This must be the corporate prison that our overlords have decided on.

I WFH now (thank you covid), but my jobs have been in similarly drab cubes and offices.

The work is dynamic and fast-paced. Having crazy lights and crap on the walls would not improve the work.

Little did they know … a courier will deliver a cell phone to this cubicle any minute and Morpheus is gonna call the moment they open the cardboard envelope

Could be the cubicle of a 911 dispatcher. Although it looks too clean and it doesn’t have like 3 keyboards and mice instead of a KVM.
