Company perks

“Enjoyed company perks” literally doesn’t make sense: every employee-that is, most of the cast-employed company perks. Lack of edit summary is also not helpful. Please respond here Rat2. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 16:51, 26 April 2022 (UTC)

I explained well with my reference, and if you read them you'll find

Instead of rebelling like Helly, he would rather focus on the perks that he receives as a competent worker. His numerous “erasers and finger traps” are a source of pride for him, only because – like his colleagues – he has nothing else of value to hold onto.

which echoes a lot of Dylon's lines and actions - He repeatedly brags about his finger traps, his drawings, and - his waffle party.

In addition, you reverted twice about the fact Helly is clearly tackled by the Natalie in season finale, which can be clearly seen in the show itself, and mentioned in the respective reference, without giving a valid reference or explanation.

Before Natalie (Ms. Cobel’s secractary) tackles her to the ground, Helly tells everyone in the room that the severed employees are tortured at Lumon.

May I suggest you please watch the show closely, and read others' references when they are clearly presented, instead of focusing on reverting. R^* 04:33, 27 April 2022 (UTC)

Cypher

I'd like to add, to the see also section, the movie Cypher as a similar concept of memory erasure, in the work place. It also deals with a character, who has had his memory erased and is actually another person, who is in a mysterious workplace. He eventually learns of his other "self" at the end of the movie. Very similiar theme. You should note the novel "Paycheck," "explores a theme of erasing memory of the time spent on a contract" was also added.... both paycheck and Cypher cover memory erasure.
