Maybe it’s Tony Montana best of all who can relate to the indulgent after-work behavior of office workers. His tendency to luxuriate in baths and spend all his money on lavish possessions–whether gold chains or home decor–speaks to the entire raison d’être of those who subject themselves to the torment of cube life. A strong commitment to and passion for material goods is what binds office workers to their desks.
But at least Tony made actual bank for minimal time put in, whereas the office worker is damned to sit there for hours upon hours all the day long just to pay rent and barely have extra dough for those middle class luxuries like thirteen-dollar bottle wine and a subscription to the gamut of Amazon Prime, Hulu, Netflix, et. al. And sure, they’re known to occasionally pull a jank version of Tony Montana by sitting in their yellow-ringed tub and soaking until the water gets cold about three minutes after filling it to the brim. But it simply doesn’t hold quite the same payoff as how Tony satiates his material lust as a reward for his trouble.
Still, the office worker can shout to his or her roommate, “I work hard for this!” from the tub as the roommate begs to be let in to piss.
