What would happen, though, if The Finer Things Club let in some other members? What book would he or she choose to read and discuss with those in the office? They deal with interruptions, from Kevin wrestling with the vending machine to Phyllis popping popcorn in the microwave, but still look forward to their monthly, exclusive meetings where the tables are covered with cloths and finger sandwiches are served on china plates. The club meets in the break room to discuss such works of literature as Memoirs of a Geisha, A Room with a View, and Angela’s Ashes. The members dress in costume and prepare appropriate sundries for each book. Founded by Pam, Toby, and Oscar, the club “meets once a month to discuss books and art, to celebrate culture in a very civilized way.” According to Pam, “There is no paper, no plastic, and no work talk allowed.” Oscar also chimes in, “Besides having sex with men, I would say The Finer Things Club is the gayest thing about me.” The one club that is “exclusive” is The Finer Things Club. These include The Party Planning Committee, Kevin’s Band, and Dwight’s task forces for safety and anti-flashing. At Dunder Mifflin, the fictitious paper company featured in The Office, there are a number of clubs that workers can join.
