Burning the midnight oil.

"Don't forget to leave me a wakeup call so I can get the worm!"

Work Parfait

'Is that the sweet smell of success or some imitation air freshener?'

"I'll wait a moment for everyone's energy drink to kick in."

Man at desk with two in-trays reading 'urgent' and 'too late'.

Multi-tasking.

Some days at work can be more challenging than others.

Back to work...

'Go right in -- he's expecting you.'

Sign in book shop window: 'Critics agree the book is much better than the movie.'

'It's 930am ma'am - time to meet the Board of Detractors.'

"My favorite way to start the day...coffee, danish, and a data dump."

"I reap and I reap and it's like he doesn't even notice."

'That's Oog -- he got a haircut and a job.'

'You're going to have to work your way up to the ground floor like everyone else.'

'Not here - home!'
