We’re taken to a business headquartered in a suburban home where a worker is rewarded for doing a stellar job with the proverbial perk of a “corner office.” The only problem is that the corner office in a residence isn’t quite the power space it is in a highrise.
Titled “Corner Office,” this spot for FedEx Ground was directed by Randy Krallman of Smuggler for BBDO New York. It’s one of three spots in a package which features fictional micro-businesses and how FedEx Ground helps them.

Over a century ago, pioneering explorer Aloha Wanderwell set off from Nice at the age of 16 to become the first woman to drive around the world in a Ford Model T. Now, in 2024, we get to see Lexie, the youngest person to visit every country in the world, take to the wheel of the electric Ford Explorer, reinventing that historic journey for a new generation.
