The premise

Here’s the bit.

At a corporate training session, three pairs of coworkers present practice slides. Henriette and Nan are comfortable answering phones but utterly lost in presentation software, and their first attempt sends them into tears. The instructors offer patient encouragement while puzzling through crossed-out food, duplicated clocks and other accidental creations. The receptionists respond to each setback with increasingly personal confessions, until the workshop leaders decide they are better off leaving computers alone.

We cannot unhear that.

The rabbit hole continues

One more couldn’t hurt.
