The show revolves around the three staff members of it's IT department: a geeky genius named Maurice Moss, the workshy Roy Trenneman, and the department head Jen Barber who knows nothing about IT. Moss and Roy are portrayed as socially inept geeks, and even though the company depend on their services, they are despised, ignored and considered losers by the rest of the staff. This therefore tells you that they are't exactly popular which is what some would expect in geeky characters. Roy tends to express his personality by wearing a different geek t-shirt in each episode, and which you could compare to The Big Bang Theory as one of their characters did a similar thing. Wearing clothes with geeky things on doesn't necessarily associate you as a geek, but with circumstances such as these characters where they perform geeky on a daily basis, they will no doubt be described as a geek.
Jen seems to correlate the show with The Big Bang Theory as well as she is the female amongst the dominant males.
