At a work meeting, a group of people sit around an oval desk looking at a fern. The fern seems to have taken place of the boss.
Ferns are inanimate objects that cannot be the boss of the company.
Why is the fern the leader?
It's amazing to think he started out in the lobby.

"Starting in the lobby" usually would refer to a someone who climbed the entire corporate ladder starting as a low-level employee like a secretary in the lobby. But here, the plant is the boss; lobbies of office buildings often have decorations like this, so, like a human could, the plant also started in the lobby.
