This is actually taking place inside Rowan's subconsciousness. That's how he hope Alan's life is right now.
Genius plot twist. All those office jobs where Alan was working are just Rowan's feverish dreams.😂
I'd like to imagine that Rowan genuinely believes that Alan is struggling alone in the wilds, begging for him to come and save him.
Would love this to be a plot twist.
Yep, pretty likely. It's a world of Rowan.
Good idea I hope it's true and he's just chilling being happy irl lol
Is this Alan's new job?
No this is an alternate universe where everyone works in office
I just want Rowan to come barging in at some point and ask Alan what he is doing even tho office Rowan is literally in sight.
Kinda like Baelin' and the Smithy being in the same shot
No this is just live footage from the new viva hq
In the end Rowan did say the whole point of the skit was that it was him the whole time so potentially Rowan has been hitman style stalking Alan like saying the grass ain’t greener on the other side boi. Also the thought of the world being some dystopian nightmare makes a lot of sense considering how customers in tech town have no power as the manager literally will eject them from the store
Office Logic not Bored.
I dont say this of people often, but that acting of "You damaged company property" was exquisite. Subtle and nuanced to make it sadistic and creepy as hell. Kudos
It's easter-egg from the previous episodes
@@levayv Well, yeah lol. That's not really relevant though.
That little glimmer of joy on her face. Damn.
She wasn't acting.
Rhi is incredibly talented :)
This is meant to be a compliment but whoever played the soulless corporate bureaucrat really put it over the top. I got chills down the back of my neck 🤣
have you damaged company property, Chris Todd? :]
It's Rhi McCall. If I presume the name to be right!! She's an amazing actor
"You damaged company's property..."
That delivery sends shivers down to my spine.
My employer said the same thing when their computer in the 1990s was being forced to run Windows 10 and stopped turning on.
In Playtechverse, damaging company property can lead two possible end points: pay cut or close into "think what you have done" room, based on Rowan's actual mood. Or if you are Ellie, you can get reward, payrise for sure.
but you are the company property
if only she'd had a cctv with the feed from his desk over her shoulder...
Imagine if he dropped a pen!
Sad thing is I've worked in places where they did similar things. We needed gloves and needed them to be thin yet sturdy for the work we did. We bought Oakley gloves because those fit our requirements perfectly. The approving officer would not okay the purchase we'd already made. Said they didn't need to be Oakley. She wanted proof the PPE was required. I sent OSHA's regulation that it was the shop supervisor's job (me) to determine safety requirements.
We were using the darn things for 6 months while she argued and wasted my time, my supervisor's time, and my supervisor's supervisor's time, thus costing far more in salary of all of us trying to convince her to approve the purchase. Eventually, it got to the point where our division head talked to her division head and it was approved with her still mumbling about wasting funds.
Cost of the gloves for our shop was $150. Cost in time wasted due to her was over $700.
I can't stand ppl like that, it's as if they think it's going to be deducted right out of their salary.
The obstructionism is the point.
These things are often politics. Salaries are payed from a different pot of money, so they don't matter. Even though it hurts the company overall.
@@fred_derf Company politics has everything to do with this.
She was just being stupd and doesn't understand what certain things are used for and thinks everything should be done by her logic only, even if she has 0 experience in anything.
This hits close to home. When I was working retail there was a point where we weren't allowed to print more than 20 pages a week. Yet manager weekly meetings would dictate we print our reports which were 50+ pages.
We weren't allowed to order toilet paper, soap, air fresheners and other detergents because we were also given a monthly ration as well as a monthly internal budget.
We went through like 7 or so CEOs that year and ultimately bankrupted soon after.
I can imagine clients going to the bathroom to empty toilet paper, no soap and stink and just deciding meh on the sales.
I wander why XD
" and ultimately bankrupted" wow, you definitely used too much detergent then!
the single staple being inserted into the stapler was anxiety beyond comprehension.
0:52 The whiteboard has "Avoid Unnecessary Eye-Contact", "Ensure Productivity is Maximized", and "Smile You're On Camera". Just your typical motivations.
And in the glare of the light reflection top right corner I think it says "No touching company property without prior authorization"
A good manager knows how to motivate his employees, but of coarse Alan knows about good managers
Its Rowan.
Its always been Rowan.
Avoid Unnecessary Eye-Contact sounds pretty nice, actually
@@iambicpentakill971 Sounds like a dystopia. Telling you what to do. You are a good little NPC.
Rowan always being there everywhere Alan goes is a plot I can get behind
There are not many people involved in filming you know...
@@InconspicuousChap I'm sure they are aware and this is not what they were saying..
So do i
Is because Alan is in hell he can escape it this is his torture
I bet it was Rowan in the security guard suit ;)
Alan's facial expressions make him the perfect person for this kind of skits
Just subtly horrified.
This is great,
love the monotone grey tones, the wardrobes, the hair the face covered armed guards in black ... everything to create an awesome dystopian corporate landscape. And Rhiannon McCall as the key corporate contact is perfect.
there are soo many storylines to run from here. Office supplies are just the start.
What about corporal punishment for black shoe soles, marking the floor.
The delivery guy who can arrive and deliver the envelope, but can never leave; Byron Coll.
and something to do with the microchip implanted in staffs neck that shocks them when needing to take a bathroom break.
... so many stories.
It's nice getting these "Behind The Scenes" at VLDL.
Such a good comment
Finally you guys get to see some VLDL BTS!
I was gonna say that 😂
@@VivaLaDirtLeague yes please.
😂
Poke the holes with the ruined staple onto the staple marks, and insert the ruined staple onto the holes, reshape and bend the staple. Done.
Did you really think you could get away with unofficial modification of Company Property @dsay5672? Unfortunately that's going to be a pay cut.
@@jersmont1309 *massive** pay cut
@jersmont1309 Did you really think you could get away with only giving @dsay5672 a pay cut @jersmont1309? That's going to be a half day's ration.
@@MrDiaxusUnfortunately it would seem that both you and @dsay5672 have exceeded the two sentence company standard maximum for formal response. Please proceed to my department for assesment and repercussion.
Surely they have another dedicated staff member who controls the quality of stapling.
lol there are some places where there is an atmosphere like that. I would have just said something like "You want the work done? Give me more staples, if not then keep the staples." At that point your productivity lies in their hands and if anyone complains you can refer to the one in charge of supply.
I had a friend who worked at a place that didn't even allow you to use the restroom if it wasn't your break time. If it was an emergency, you needed a supervisor's okay, if you could find one. If you were even 1 minute late from lunch or a break, they would dock you 30 minutes of pay. I told her she should try to find a better company to work for. Eventually, she did.
@@srellison561 I can imagine if I worked there I'd pee in my pants and walk around unashamedly and I'd take the extra half hour for lunch if I'm being docked anyway. I'm sure I'd be fired immediately.
*- I need staples please*
*- So you've chosen death !*
So the ration of staples he got in January was 2 staples???? What a legend for making them last 6 months.
But then - how on Gods green Earth was he surprised when he ran out of staples!?
@@Herbert_Eder I was wondering that too
I would be going to the archives to remove staples from the old documents, no one will miss them.
@@monad_tcp Destruction of company property! That's a massive paycut right there!
@@Herbert_Eder Only if he gets caught.
Company: Strict use of office supplies policy to save money.
Also Company: Requires paper reports and lengthy justifications for basic supplies.
The reason for stuff like that is usually because those things come out of different budgets, which tells you a lot about how companies function.
You want new chairs, new laptops, new keyboards, and mice for the entire department? No problem.
You want solar panels on the roof? "Don't be absurd, we don't have the budget for that!"
But these pay themselves back, how can you not have the budget to make money?
@bramvanduijn8086 Because we're all stupid. Everybody's stupid, and the world is screwed. Ain't it great? Lol
Checks out, typical SOP Of a Company.
@@Redhotquagmire not when it this close to taste nuke-cola without opening Fallout-_-
I worked for a government department and the person in charge of the office supplies was like this a power-tripping miser. They got sick and I got put in charge so I became Santa giving out as much as I could making sure everyone got what gear they needed before the miser returned.
I got to do an office supply order once. I did it another person signed off I bought myself so many pens... They always walk off.
I imagine you increased the productivity a lot during that time. That will never click on the head of those miserable people that only think about costs, not cost related to what's accomplished.
@@monad_tcpIf it can't be quantified by logging on a computer to note it, it doesn't help productivity in these morons minds. It's truly unbelievable to me.
The funniest thing is, all of it can be claimed back on tax anyway 😂😂
@@monad_tcp still, too much office theft. Right when summer holidays are around the corner, all of a sudden sugar satchets, plastic cups and stirrers and toilet paper 'disappears' a lot faster than usual.
"Do you think staples grow on trees?"
"No, I assume they're made in factories." 😂
Yeah, that's what was said. Good job?
@@Evan-nl4gt Yeah, you correctly affirmed what everyone else knew. Good job?
Really nailed the dystopian horror vibe with the lighting, camera angles, and colouring.
And that music was chilling!
Any given office during the 80s.
@@leegaul2161no an office in the 80’s would be brown af
@@TheRageEnterprise You guys got brown? I guess different nations were inspired differently by that Mamas and Papas song. All the leaves are brown and the skies are grey. I got the latter.
It’s got Severance vibes
Of course nobody expected that to be Rowan! He was wearing even more than the other characters!
Did you mean "more than the other peasants"?
@@olegkarpenko3142 Rowan is not a peasant, he's got manager's privileges.
@@olegkarpenko3142I think his point was that if the video can have a half naked person, Rowan will be there.
You didn't expect it to be Rowan, I called it as I was watching and just didn't expect it to be confirmed by the video. :P Be careful with absolute quantifiers there :D
@@zoliking same here dude, I was like, hmmm I wonder who that is, I bet it’s Rowan or Ben, and BOOM, few seconds later, my first tip came true
...and that's how the rebellion started. With one, accidentally mangled staple.
2:39 is EASILY my favourite part 🤣🤣 "..........*smirks evilly* "you damaged company property" hahahaha
The frame right there’s even better 😂
2:39 the subtle glee on rhi's face oh my gosh she's such a good actress
She's acting here? /s
werid watching this after the sustainable homes show on tv one
what makes you believe she is "acting" mwahahah
Orwell in "1984": total surveillance, mind control, shortage of very basic supplies for life, no sex, endless world war.
VLDL in 2024: hold our beer.
Finally reading that book! Years ago I would have felt it was highly imaginative. Nowadays it doesn't seem like much of a stretch of the imagination.
Here in America the fascist Republican party is making our country 1984 😕
that orwell 1984 sounds like modern times from woke crap . and german politics from the green party
@@lynnharper308Typical Democrat. You actually think you're the good guy in Orwell's book? Remind me, which party has been increasing the power of the federal government for the last 100 years?
@@Wolf-fighter seems you read the wrong book then. hard to believe you missed the point that badly
This was actually very entertaining. The acting was on point and it created a stable sense of tension; that overbearing dread that something bad might happen. Good skit.
"Papers, please" gets a new meaning to it.
The hallway radio noise made me instantly go back to half life 2
That was what I was thinking as well
And to Handmaids tale. Every time a guard is shown, the radio noise can be heard.
SWAT 4
Exactly what we were going for!
RUST as well.
I love that it says "Smile! You're on camera!" and "Avoid unnecessary eye-contact" on the whiteboard :D
Sooo Britt got then approved by HR... good for her....
What a nightmare!
Having hired a guy who wastes company resources like that...
Better representation of a dystopian society than many recent movies/TV shows.
I have to praise the cinematography on this one. You can feel the TENSION with your skin
When all the company's money goes to leadership bonuses 😂
So every company ever?
Based specifically on how much their fiefdom saves money. Her VP got a $500,000 bonus.
Like Boeing CEO who saved money and got 34 million. While risking lives if passengers with shoddy quality planes
i think the company's money went into the swat team here.
...and security :)
Please turn this into a series!! where Alan can't escape his new job, but always on the brinks of being fired, which if he does he would gets taken to a worse job further down within the company. YES!
Alan ended up in GDR 😂😂😂 this fits too perfect 😂
This could actually be a real good concept for a dystopian office horror movie lol
Kind of like The Onion videos, in a few years they'll simply be documentaries.
Suspense not horror
The "You damaged company property" gave me chills. What an ep!
And that smile! Lighting was so perfect with this.
It would have been a bit funny if he said, "Last time I damaged company property, I beat the crap out of the boss, so if I did so, that would not have been the only thing damaged."
Yesssss her anticipatory glee at catching him in a confession…
the atmosphere you guys created was amazing, the ambient light, sound, and camera angles were immaculate!
Aw, it's nice to see Rowan reprise his role from Avatar. I loved your part as _background soldier guy_
Straight to the point.😂
She gave him 1 staple, but 2 cups??? MISAPPROPRIATION OF COMPANY PROPERTY!
The cups have to be returned by end of day
And I swear I saw multiple Staples go into that cup
Well, if was 2 something and 1 cup, it might remind too many of something they don't want to be reminded of.
its 1
@@Cec9e13 if one staple is a half ration, then that would make 2 staples a full ration. Alan is a damn genius for making 2 staples last 6 months, he deserves a promotion for brilliant resource management. He could actually be the un-realised Lord of Supplies!
Man, Tech Town really lost out
this is unironically a cinematic masterpiece 😮 well done to the entire team, this office gave me chills. “smile - you’re on camera!” 😭😭😭😭
This would make for an interesting movie: "In a WORLD...."
yea rowan really delivered
30 years after working in such an organization (with a similar the little windowed cubicle for the almighty stationary person), your video triggered a visceral response in me! Amazing work, you nailed it! Now I'm off for a few weeks of therapy, so thanks for that.
Omg I love this Black Mirror-ish vibe!! YOU GUYS NAILED IT
the irony is most people would rather buy their own supplies instead of talking to the resource manager
Me. Im a pen collector at work. I see so many pen wide in the open and drop pen that I have never run out of pen. I swoop down like an eagle and possess it while looking for any sign of people looking around.
so the system works.
Right, that's the point of the skit too (other than Rowan). They ask you unecessary questions. It's fucking office supplies. It's not like I'm gonna resell them on ebay or smth.
Policy 886: Using company stapler with personal staples is considered as a misuse of company equipment. Only company issued staples can be use with company issued stapler.
I've worked for companies where that was exactly the way it worked.
If that's one half ration of staples, then one ration would be...two staples. Somehow this feels worse than if they just don't use staples at all.
The real question is..... How did two staples last him 6 months?
If you’re gonna use two staples, just use one…
Either your math is wrong or you missed the fact he only got half of a staple.
@@brandonwirtz2308 I believe that at the end of day he removes staples from all documents, straightens them and recycles :)
@@kaipography DAMN HAHAHAHAH THAT OLD CH REFERENCE!
Gosh the quality and camera work of these videos never ceases to amaze me... just the opening 30 seconds you're hooked. A simple plot over 1 measly staple.
Never change VLDL!
Oh wow, I absolutely love the vibes of this clip! Rhi and Alan created a really intense atmosphere along with the background noises, music and props! Pretty awesome to see something different every now and then!

Say Yoshi, when are you gonna pay your taxes from 20 years ago?
To load a single staple you must pull back slightly on the compressing bar and push the staple through the exit port. Release the compressing bar once the staple is in place to hold it in position. Proceed to staple as normal, ensuring that there is no lateral movement in the stapler that may cause damage to the staple.
So you've worked here before
I see you have lived knowledge of the single-staple routine. It's a specific talent indeed! 👏☺
The episode should be watched with headphones on. Background music is so well executed, almost like Harry Gregson-Williams music.
Thinking about it, you really do go through the five stages of grief when a stapler runs out.
Denial: you try it again; anger: why is it broken; bargaining: surely it's stuck, open it to check; depression: nope, it's empty; acceptance: you either know where more are or you give up.
Just your average office jobs in 2026, nothing out of the ordinary here
Alan is always working for the worst places
And Adam!
The pen thing doesn’t seem so bad in retrospect
I dunno...I think I'd rather have strict, evil tightwads than having to deal with Rowan's insanity and customers like Ben. If dealing with Rhi is this job's only major drawback, she can be avoided by buying your own staples from time to time. At TechTown, you can't avoid Rowan, and he comes up with new ways to torture employees regularly.
In retrospect working on Playtech and TechTown with Rowan wasn't that bad after all eh Alan.
@@haroldcruz8550 I think that's the direction the videos are going. We keep getting Alan at new absurd places. Eventually he'll just have to settle for going back to Playtech because it at least isn't THAT bad.
Not Rowan having nightmares of Alan abandoning him and now slowly dreaming of all the terrible scenarios that he might face that will eventually force him to come back to playtech.
I can't imagine what's it's like being one of the workers for these guys. I mean, they don't even have credits in the videos - but they're all about "bad bosses".
They are the bad bosses. It's why rowan is the only character who seems real
“Are you the Lord of Staples?”
(Cue Ray from Ghostbusters: “When someone asks if you are a god, you say Yes!”)
Allen: “Yes, yes I am the Lord of Staples.”
Was having that exact thought, I said "yes" out loud the moment she asked.
Yes, my name is Adamus Decimus Meridius, Lord of Office Staples, Master of Paper Clips, and loyal servant to the true emperor, Lucius Documentus. Father to a stolen stapler, husband to a misused binder, and I will have my vengeance, in this office or the next.
I worked part time at a PEP Boys, where they told me to buy my own paper towels for cleaning. I also worked full time at a Ford dealership. I merely suggested a block and tackle for lifting the heavy items. By the end of the day there was a ultra heavy duty block and tackle laying on my desk. Best and worst of both worlds.
This should be a ten part mini series. Office dystopia theme could get some viewership.
When he used the stapler and realized he was out of staples, I felt that click click click to my core. Don't even get me started on the mangled staple...
I want to see more of this office world. 1984 office
Severance!
I read this book a few months ago and I loved it. When I finished watching this video I quickly came here to the comments to see if I was the only person that got that strong inspiration. I'm glad there are more people who got it :)
1984 is crying in envy and desperation looking at this.
I got the same vibe. @@Whitecroc
So unsettling... but don't worry, if you live to see the 2030s "you will own nothing and be happy"...
so you'll get to see this, in real life..
Ellie "I need some supplies"
them "Of couse heres a new computer, anything you need"
If that was a clip after the closing card that would have been hysterical.
Bruh I need a part 2 and judging by how Adam was dragged out Alan might as well quit before going back there 😂😂
Rowan must have got paid extra for this skit. Imagine him standing still, not talking and being stuffed in that outfit!
The film quality on this is amazing. The cinema quality shot pacing and vibe are all so good
“Oh, and don’t think of me like some “boss”. Just… think of me like a friend”
That's when you know you should quit before you start
_The "friend" says, while gently but decidedly squeezing your left shoulder._
_Your brain responds immediately sending a chill up and down your spine while your body does nothing, and your face just projects a faint smile and a singular polite nod._
Oh this reminded me of a supervisor i was constantly at odds with. She was weekday day shift sup, and i was weekend day shift sup. Naturally she was friends with the manager above us. She had own file cabinet where she would hoard ALL the office supplies. Her crew would have free reign of it while we on the weekend were "alloted" whatever weekday didnt use. So we end up with like 10 post its at each desk which were crucial for the tests we performed. Staplers of course only had like 5 staples left, and she had pens gathered at the end of shift.
But what she didnt know is that i had a screwdriver, and a screwdriver was a very helpful tool to pry the side of her cabinet far enough over that the lock pops out. Every weekend it was like opening a treasure chest in d&d. Hundreds of full, still plastic wrapped post its, 20 boxes of new staples, and pens still in their boxes. Each week she would complain about us getting to the supplies and each week i had to explain to her and management what the definition of supply was. It was glorious when she finally quit as all 4 shifts could finally share resources equally.
Damn good acting, with perfect situational music! I got scared myself, at thousands of km and months after, when she said "You've damaged company property"... I could feel cold sweat and shivers down my spine...
or... I may have flu after all...
The cost of office supplies vs the cost of wages standing in line.
I bet that employees in this company get pay cuts for the time they are waiting in line. 🤣
It's about the message
Wages are the same. And cost of office supplies is enormous.
In Japan, they let expensive office workers do menial tasks like cleaning the office. Even if that makes zero economic sense.
@@vast634 that's one of the bullshit I hated on my 1st job. It was "general thing" there - but I'll be honest - I hate cleaning. Especially when I'm not the one who caused the mess.
I'm cleaning at home when needed - but at least I know that's all my mess, and I still don't feel much desire in the process. But being forced to + potentially[=most likely] wiping shit for other randos? Yuck! No matter what you say - I won't consider such as "okay" thing.
Can confirm, single staples don't load and always mangle. They must be loaded in multiples to work correctly.
How does 1 1/2 clip even exist lol.
"It was me the whole time"
The height, the posture, yes Rowan we knew all along.
These productions are soo good! The scenes, the angles, the lighting, the colorgrade. So much work put in. Keep it on! 🙌🏼
Is this Rhi’s job when she isn’t working at Techtown?
This is clearly tech towns corporate office
No, that's Rhi's sister.
I was thinking this was Rhi, but I wasn't sure since I've never seen her hair that straight before
Yes. They can't buy new staples because they need funding for Britt's smile initiative.
@@galaxyexplorer8075 Is she Rhi??
The music, the palette, the acting. This is probably the skit with the best production value I have seen of you,.
i'd would like to see more of this, elaborated or escalated or as in series. because it has dark horror comedy evil lurking styles combined.
Next thing you know, they'll want a form 27B/6 if the air conditioning malfunctions.
Don't worry Alan, they won't fire you, you're a staple employee.
You don't fire something that makes for a staple diet. You eat it.
Rowan wearing clothes was not expected. Let alone a helmet and riot gear.
Rhiannon's acting was so good in this scene.
I think this is one of the best edited videos when it comes to color correcting, scene and angle swtches. The focus of each scene was beautifully presented. Well done to you all.
Man I actually love the dystopian vibe of this video. Honestly an extended version with revised/more precise dialog and maybe a few twists or reveals and you'd have a show like Severance.
You will have to fill out Request Form 1984J. or jorwell.
Exactly my thinking! I thought it resembled Severance quite a lot. Especially with the cinematography.
Yeah, this movie would be a great 1984 - Equilibrium mix 🙃
I feel like this is Alan’s subconscious dealing with the trauma he had from Techtown. In reality he just went into a supply closet and cried…
This is an interesting interpretation. I hope this is true or Alan is just really really bad at finding decent jobs.
There is a lot of spaced level darkness in a lot of these sketches
Gosh, VLDL production team is such an all-rounder. Be it comedy, thriller or drama, you nailed them all!
I can feel the pressure with Alan. Poor guy 😂
Rhi coming in hard in this one, I love it!
"Are you the Lord of the Staples Mr. Morrison?"
Seeing her in DnD and in Playtech being the super funny, energetic woman, and seeing her here so strict... it's so fantastic!
Much love from germany!
Man, Rowan has completely lost it, he's having lucid dreams about Alan.
If resource management used several staples to update employee 1007's file after issuing them one staple that would be peak corporate.
This one was absolutely brilliant. A bureaucratic dystopia.
So... what happens next? Are we getting more of these? Will Alan have to face corporate punishment? Will he run? Will he bring his own supply of staples next time?
I actually was expecting Rowan to grab the stapler right before Alan will use it and "I borrow it quickly, Ok? Just need one staple, you know. Are you Ok with that? Thanks, mate" stapling right during saying it and placing back on a table as would nothing happen and just leaving.
I definitely want more office dictatorship skits. This was hilarious and vaguely concerning.
I left the corporate environment 23 years ago and I still have bad dreams about it.
Many years ago I worked at a company that was going through cost saving and they cut erasers/rubbers in half and if you needed a new pen or pencil you had to turn in an empty pen or a pencil stub.
That was a lot darker than normal, I LOVED IT 😅
Huh, I never would have guessed the guard was Rowan.
That's a lot more clothes than he usually wears.
I like to imagine that in-universe, Alan never actually left the company, and instead just got a promotion to a corporate position, which Rowan just misunderstood as him leaving.
The most unsettling thing isn't the mood lighting, the camera work, or the dialogue. All of which are great, BTW.
The MOST unsettling thing about this is how many non-typical extras there are in that office pool. Alan, Adam, and Rhi are the *only* friendly faces, and that was creepy AF.
I want to see more skits of this utopian office like there's multiple ones for the restaurant! This looks too good of a setting for just one video!
At least he didn’t drop a pen.
Terry Gilliam would be proud
Much praise! 😍
Of course it’s the redhead being a dictator, THEY HAVE NO SOULS! 😭
Wow that plot twist at the end! That was the whole point of the skit.
