Home Office Starts at Nine

Home office 8:59 9:00

A bald man in a suit lounges on a couch at home beneath crossed swords, apparently relaxing just before work begins. When the clock changes from 8:59 to 9:00, he immediately sits up, counts on his fingers, and answers a phone as if beginning the workday. The comedic music heightens the contrast between his lazy pre-work posture and his sudden performance of professionalism, making it a reaction to technically starting work on time while doing almost nothing.
