A split-screen video shows the same man sitting in a dark room under the labels “having a job” and “having no job.” He slowly moves and settles into a meditative pose while Rupert Holmes’s upbeat soft-rock song “Escape (The Pina Colada Song)” plays, creating an ironic joke about unemployment feeling strangely peaceful or freeing. It works as a reaction to being unemployed, avoiding work, or enjoying a carefree break.
