Comments from Max:
You do not need to have watched The Office. I had never watched it when I first read these. But if you want to watch the clips referenced in the essays, see: https://www.maxfieldwallace.com/gervais-principle-clips/
Budget at least 80 minutes for the reading. If you choose to read fast you will finish sooner. If you get sucked into Office clips on YouTube you may need (much) longer
