Officepolitics Stories

A brilliant Black American hotel designer takes a career‑defining leap to Seoul-where luxury is a language and power is inherited. Her mandate: reimagine a global brand from the inside out. His reality: the city's most photographed executive, a man whose smile sells skylines and whose every move feeds a machine. In boardrooms made of glass and lobbies made for performance, a slow, undeniable pull becomes impossible to ignore. Image and ambition collide with a longing that feels like truth. But in a world where legacy is scripted and love is leveraged, choosing each other could cost everything. © _RelleLebby_// R. L.

The Office Prattler masterfully captures the relentless, sanity-draining experience of dealing with a coworker who simply won't stop talking. Through sharp wit and escalating tension, the poem takes readers on a slow, torturous descent into madness-mirroring the feeling of being trapped in an endless, one-sided monologue. What begins as polite endurance soon spirals into barely contained frustration, culminating in an explosive outburst that is as hilarious as it is cathartic. The transition from silent suffering to outright exasperation is pitch-perfect, making every office worker who's ever been held hostage by a chatterbox feel seen. Equal parts comedy and tragedy, The Office Prattler is a poetic tribute to the unspoken battles of the workplace-where small talk isn't always so small, and sometimes, the only escape is a well-timed breakdown.

In fact, his boss openly admits that his absence brought 'peace' to the office. So, Ram makes a decision-he won't quit, but he also won't care. Welcome to the corporate survival game, where: ✔ HR Jackal Jyothi spreads rumors faster than an email chain. ✔ Sly Snake Subbu takes credit for work he didn't do. ✔ The Supreme Overlord Boss blindly trusts lies over loyalty. But Ram has one last trick up his sleeve-a way to expose the system while outplaying it from within. Will he win the corporate battle, or will he become just another forgotten name in the attendance register? A satirical take on office politics, betrayal, and the art of working without working.
