mark and jez both being in stable employment caused such a universal imbalance that it shut down the company they both worked at, perfect.

Everything about Peep Show rules. Absolutely everything. I binged the entire series again in 2 days a few months back. It was marvelous. I felt like I was in the show. Only took me several weeks of therapy to acknowledge that it's just a sitcom.

Jeff humiliating Mark, his boss, by ordering him to go on a coffee run is genius writing. It is perfectly realistic of the type of prick who knows how to demean someone but does it in a way which is still within social boundaries and guised as a joke. Or to quote Dobby: "Jeff's telling a joke. Jeff's telling a joke. Everybody laugh cause Jeff's telling a joke!"
