* CondescendingCompassion: Jan's presentation about women in the workplace is intended to be a well-meaning attempt to give the other woman in the company some advice on how to move up through the corporate ladder, but comes off as inadvertently patronising (since it accidentally implies that their roles have little value or meaning ''unless'' they're moving up the corporate ladder) and is rooted in stereotypical ideas about women and how they relate to men. The women of the office seem to find it just as pointless and borderline insulting as Michael's attempts at bonding with the men.
