As the television show continues, we see how Marx's theory of alienation of the worker affects this character in various ways.

Jim is a charismatic jokester who finds his love interest in Jenna Fischer’s character Pam – a cute receptionist and later salesperson who tries, often unsuccessfully, to reign in their manager’s tomfoolery. Jim and Pam build their relationship over the course of The Office’s 9 seasons; it’s

The quirky “The Office” show shadows office workers of “Dunder-Mifflin Paper Company”, a fictional paper distributor in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Occasional one v. one discussions with the employee's, “raw” footage, and many humorously bizarre yet relatable plots that have made this series enormously popular. The show portrays some of life’s most awkward situations and not only does it make the audience laugh, but also delivers small dosages of life lessons. A comedic satire such as the “The Office”
I believe that this is shown in many ways. One specific way is two main characters Jim and Pam have this love story throughout the film. It starts with Pam having a fiancé and then breaking it off with him because her love for Jim. They start dating and then eventually get married and have kids in the show. Their relationship is shown throughout the whole series from the first to last episode. Also this concept

John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men (1937) is an intensely-focused novella that deals with friendship, trust, the relationship between good and evil and the role of justice. It is the second book in Steinbeck’s trilogy about agricultural labour, alongside with In Dubious Battle (1936) and The Grapes of Wrath (1939). The title, inspired by a line in the poem The Mouse (1875) by the Scottish poet Robert Burns (The best-laid schemes o' mice an ‘men / gang aft agley), encapsulates the spirit of the narration
Nonetheless, invisibility doesn't originate from prejudice alone. Similarly as toxic for the storyteller are other summed up mindsets about character—thoughts that imagine him as a gear-tooth in a machine rather than a one of a kind person. This is valid for the narrator both at the anonymous dark college and at Liberty Paints. Notwithstanding, it is the Brotherhood, a not at all subtle interpretation of the Communist Party, that turns out to be most baffling for the narrator. The Brotherhood gives

Their friendship grows stronger and stronger as the novel continues, it got to the point where Jim was not only a friend, but a father figure to Huck.
