It's used loosely - sometimes as a literal workspace, as in "I write in a small office at home" or working "in an NFL office" - and sometimes in the political sense of holding public office.
Does this collection include political commentary?

Is there a dry, humorous quote about office life?
Yes - one quote notes that "Organized crime in America takes in over forty billion dollars a year and spends very little on office supplies," using the mundane detail of office supplies to make a wry point about scale.
Do any of these quotes describe a specific dream workplace?
