The life of being spied on each other

In the whole progress of this film, the boss has never appeared, instead only his arrogant anger and self-righteous attitude. It can be seen from the display of clothes and props that the whole movie may tell the heroine's work life for only one day. Through some subtle scenes, you can find sympathy with yourself-working overtime all day and night, and spending time in the office on weekends. Passed; I was cold-eyed by my peers and took a pot that shouldn’t belong to me (nor to anyone else’s pot); men’s vicious words against women, and women’s taboos...

In addition to the theme of me too expressed by the open lines, the film actually has a life of spying. The assistant arranges the boss’s daily needs, meticulously to every corner of his private life, from buying medicine to knowing the boss’s private misconduct. From trying to report the boss to sitting under the company to watch bad things happen, but can’t do anything... and the assistant’s work in the office has been exposed under the eyes of colleagues for a long time, writing emails and being pointed at by old fritters colleagues for comments; documents on the table It was turned over and checked at will, and it didn't get the respect it deserved.

The message conveyed by the movie is too life-like and complex, and the emotions are so delicate that it is difficult for the viewers to digest it. A mood that only low-grade social animals can take care of. No one listens to your ideas, can't let go of work, and live a life like years.

  • Wilcock: I don't think you have anything to worry about.

    Jane: Hmm?

    Wilcock: You're not his type.

  • Boss: [Over the phone] I'm not gonna yell at you. Am I yelling? No... Because you're not someone even worthy of that. Because you didn't even have the fucking courtesy to talk to me about whatever the fuck fantasy you decided to spew all over me... So, let me ask, do you want to keep this job?

    Jane: Yeah.

    Boss: Okay... Then send me a fucking apology.
