Comedic tour of office archetypes from @yahoo

A woman, acting as a tour guide in an office, comedically introduces her colleagues as an 'exhibit' of people who have had the same email since 1998. After presenting the group, she gestures for the 'tour' to continue, and the group walks away, followed by a final, seemingly unrelated shot of another person taking a mirror selfie.
