A hallway with wooden floors and patterned wallpaper leads through an arched doorway to a room with a fireplace, plants, and a large framed portrait on the far wall. White trim frames the arch and doors.
A group of six people sit and stand around a table in a cozy room, working with papers and envelopes. A box of mail is on the table, and a "WANTED" poster is on the wall behind them. They appear cheerful and collaborative.
