The Office

Of all the things invented by mankind, this must have been the worst. But we cannot imagine anything replacing it.

What is it? Someplace where people work at there jobs, like little machines. Each doing whatever they are assigned to do.

But what is it really? Someplace where people are destroying themselves.

Their values have been reversed, and behavior that should have horrified them was seen as desirable.

The important word here is someplace. It implies there are special places where important things can go on. That cannot go on anyplace else.

This was a result of Industrialization.

This can be explained in two ways: (1) we started using fossil energy, and (2) people went crazy!

Another result was the appearance of the Railroads, and the Steamships. And the Office.

And an unawareness of what was going on.
