Do it the other way around and move office to a separate package, that 
depends on the standard profile.

Your default profile should only include the packages that are common to 
all hosts.

Instead of adding another profile, you could also use conditions.

<package package-id="office">
     <condition>
         <check type="logical" condition="not">
             <check type="host" condition="os" value="5\.0\.\d{4}"/>
         </check>
     </condition>
</package>
