Such an entertaining look at job seeking and work satisfaction. A few reviews call it absurd or surreal, but honestly I think it was just unflinching. Jobs like the ones the protagonist tries out, particularly ones with small organisations and where you have to deal with the public are really strange (though perhaps the surveillance job was leaning into the absurd). I loved it.
