It establishes the lack of connection between Akakiy and his colleagues. This is the contribution the narrator's description makes.

Akaky Akakievich, the main character from a tale by Nikola Gogol, is bound to have a mediocre life. He leads a boring life. He has no interests and he only cares about his copy work. At work, he does not pay any attention to the other clerks, who make fun of him because of his strange personality.
