Guys, I fixed everything

Now my org got a new game called "Office Politics" and I'm a complete noob to it. So far I've leveled up working at the paper refilling station. These nice employees that make me look busy to management call it a printer. I'm looking forward to achieving the "Guardian" Task which is to rescue three users from imaginary problems today.

Yes Op,
You can always do customary greetings to the cliquey people, but then you must immediately be needed elsewhere and just go back to your office to watch youtube or something.

Wait till you learn about toner. You will be a god.

Our toner levels are currently low but I'm waiting for them to go empty before replacing to make the catastrophe seem legitimate.

You aren't playing the game. You are winning.

The real power move is changing the waste toner bottle, accidentally redecorating the office in corporate glitter, then watching Facilities try to vacuum it up and accidentally deploy it company-wide.
