He was in an open area in front of a hallway I think, and all the big whigs passed by his desk, etc. I think I remember too, since it was a paperclip dish, the fish died and he didn't remove it (which I found a bit cruel of him, even though it was "just" a goldfish and similar fish are used as bait, etc.) so he had a dead fish there to symbolize how he felt working there; he wasn't into working for large corporations like this one was, couldn't do the "party" line, etc. He did more things than just the fish though, he was trying to get fired so he could collect unemployment as he didn't like that job.
