In a story about ambition and betrayal, 'Staples' finds the protagonist transitioning from a respected plant operator in Ohio to taking up an executive role at the prestigious Ramsey & Co., located in the heart of New York City. Striking up a close friendship with Briggs, a seasoned vice president within the company, Staples unwittingly becomes embroiled in a power struggle orchestrated by Walter Ramsey, who has recently inherited the CEO title. Instead of directly confronting the loyal Briggs and initiating his removal, Ramsey strategically embarks on a calculated path of humiliation and sabotage to gradually strip away Briggs' position at the company, ultimately seeking to replace him with Staples. This intricate corporate drama unfolds with themes of loyalty, manipulation, and the ruthlessness lurking beneath the surface in the corporate world.
