Mmmm

Imagine taking a collection of perfectly intelligent creatures, stuffing them in window-less small boxes and requiring them to execute mindless repetitive actions-seemingly without greater purpose-all day.  Discourage movement, reduce true human contact and replace the delicate and subtle nuances of a full language with a brittle interface coming in two dialects, 'mail' and 'PPT'.  But provide the creatures with coffee machines, off-sites and oh, a set of values.

It'd be cruel right?
