We've all been there: Monday morning hits, and suddenly you’re left scrambling to appear engaged in work while your brain is still on weekend mode. This scenario captures that familiar hustle:
The emotion here is a mix of frustration and irony. The worker feels the weight of expectations while knowing that much of the work is just busywork. It’s both humorous and relatable, playing into a scenario where most can identify with the pretend intensity.

This representation will enhance the humor while maintaining clarity and relatability for anyone who's ever had to 'look busy' during a mundane Monday.
