But IDU why he’d think that would have anything to do with the price of stock. (What stock?)
There was a brief fad of ‘hot desking’ to improve efficiency. Basically workers don’t have an assigned space and can work at any desk through the magic of technology.
This is a literal hot desk?
I was thinking along the same line as Folly, re hot desking. But given the size of the desk and the window view, this guy seems like he’s a C-level exec, who wouldn’t be subject to that. Hot desking is for peons. And what does it have to do with the stock price?

On the other hand, it’s really late at night and I’m thinking too much about a cartoon.
Business executives are taught to run every proposal through the question of “what does this do for the stockholders”
I … I want that desk.
They have breakfast meetings to find ways to improve stock price. Thus far, they’ve found a way to improve breakfast meetings. The time has not been completely wasted.
