Zappos isn't the only advertiser combining workplace scenarios and puppets these days. Diet Coke and London ad shop Mother get into the act with "Maniac," presenting glammed-up marionettes that dance around the office in this spot, airing in Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Check out the pair by the vending machine near the end—he's gonna be awfully sore in the morning.
