Women can have it all! Right?! A review of HBOMax’s “Expecting Amy”

Don't Ask
Lisa is a chaotic and directionless young woman who, forced by circumstances, lands a job for the first time in her life, convinced that the hard part would be getting through the interview and being accepted. However, she soon discovers that the real problem isn't getting in, but rather understanding why she was hired. In an office where no one can clearly explain their role, tasks are contradictory, and hierarchies are based on absurdities, she must confront a working world that seems as chaotic as her own life.
