what, I'm supposed to work on Thanksgiving week?

If the day before a vacation is a vacation and, in the case of two days off or more in a row, the day before the day before a vacation is a vacation, then the afternoon after a morning of meetings and before the day before the day before a vacation is as good a time as any to open up the request line.

Kimball Cho

He goes along with Jane because after being in the Army, he has a finely honed appreciation of efficiency and absurdity. He spent years doing things a particular way because that's the way they had always been done, not because they were the best way to do them. (Although he still folds his undershirts the way he was taught in Basic.) Jane has no interest in staying in his lane and less interest in going along to get along if the going involves stupidity for its own sake

Ouch for the ending. This rings very true, the kind of sardonic outlook Cho has and how and why he goes along with Jane so much. You should write more Cho *hints unsubtly*

Ooh. Last two paragraphs are really interesting. Great insight, and very *Cho*.

I love the idea of Cho's perverse pleasure in watching other people having difficulty coping with Jane.

And as others have said, the last line is both painful and far too likely.
