Yeah, that episode was so goofy that it was kind of fun (at least that's how I remember it; admittedly I haven't seen the episode in years). Also it had plenty of Odo/Quark banter, which was always entertaining even in the bad episodes.
Right. It is actually a distinctly reliable throwback to the TOS era, but I was thinking exactly what you said, that it's rather fun (I just saw it within the month).
As far as allegory, this is what I stumbled upon and I think it fits alright.

"If Wishes Were Horses" and that one where Bashir gets possessed, though, those two can die in a fire.
''If Wishes Were Horses'' is crap no doubt. Bashir's wet dream being given physical form though always gets a smile out of me. I cannot think of anything more embarrassing than this HR violation brought to life.
''The Passenger'' though. Woo wee. Yeah there is no saving that. Siddig puts on a level of ham worthy of Shatner in this one.

Huh?
HR = Human Resources [Department]
Staffed companies will typically have a department for interpersonal policy and conduct upkeep. They also handle employer-tied health insurance -- which I forget if Germany has employer provided health care on general national level -- among other employee welfare matters.

HR stands for Human Revolution first and foremost (Deus EX ftw. why are DE1, DE:HR and DE:MD not committed yet btw?).
But in all seriousness, I know what HR stands for. I'm just wondering about what HR-violation clearspira is talking.

Well Bashir's dream brought to life was Jadzia, so...

Well glad we got that cleared out of the way.

Oh right. That's actually the joke. It's a situation not provisionally covered in standard HR policy due to the fabricated speculative fiction scenario.

Well your doctors seem to get paid as well as standard administration managers are here, but I am aware that it is a more privatized market system.
