Lunch In My Car - Episode 1

I cannot stand to be in my office any more than absolutely necessary. The windowless room with glaring green fluorescent lights and the irritating high-pitched and too loud hum of my computer are grotesquely grating.  Add to that the incessant phone ringing, and it's like I'm a character in a stereotypical dystopian movie.
