You can ignore this and just do the goal of earning on the left it will refresh and you can progress without automating Kelly's desk.

Following- I came here for this exact issue

How do we get the decor for her desk?

I’m in the same boat. Did anyone get the puzzle book yet?

I’m having this issue. It seems so hard to level up decor cards so I really struggle to automate the desks.

You can still get far, and even complete the event without everything. I think I completed without Dwight.

I might have received the puzzle book in the bonus side game, or I may have bought a basket. Can't remember. Some items are received in the side game, then available in the real one.

Same!!! It’s been a week now and nothing! Not even getting decor cards anymore

I’m stuck! The level says I have to automate Stanley’s desk, which requires puzzle book level 2. I don’t even have the puzzle book. How do I move forward?

You get decor cards either from the store, from the baskets/coffee/event box, from completing tasks (at the top of the screen), and sometimes from buying tips (you either get cards or coffee/lids/pizza/etc). I don’t know if what you get is random or if the tasks & tip bonuses are specific cards. I’m pretty certain that during the ‘Men in the Workplace’ special event that they intentionally didn’t make enough Dwight cards available to automate his desk to try and get people to buy the $10 pack that had enough to automate his desk and get most of the rewards.

How do you get decor cards??? I never see them in the shop and I only have 2 quests left in this episode but both of them require me to upgrade a decor card which I do not have enough of yet. Where do more decor cards come from?
