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?
Yes, restrained: one quote is a pointed criticism of a real public figure, claiming "his personal fortune bought him public office" and that "his money can buy anything." That's the speaker's own opinion, quoted here as their stated view rather than as a claim verified or endorsed by this page.
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?
Yes, one speaker recalls thinking "it was the coolest thing in the world to be in an NFL office" - a personal, career-admiration angle rather than office life in general.
