office space - help
 
We just got an e-mail telling us that tomorrow is Hawaiian Shirt Day. I'm officially living in Office Space now.





radii : You see Bob, it's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.
Bob Porter : Don't? Don't care?
radii : It's a problem of motivation, alright? Now if I work my ass off and Initech ships a few extra units, I don't see another dime, so where's the motivation? And here's another thing, I have eight different bosses right now.
Bob Porter : Eight?
radii : Eight Bob. So that means when I make a mistake, I have eight different people coming by to tell me about it. That's my only real motivation is not to be hassled, that and the fear of losing my job. But you know, Bob, that will only make someone work just hard enough not to get fired.

I just got blackmailed into ordering 40 subscriptions to Vibe.

No, but I just started involuntarily coveting my stapler and muttering under my breath to myself.

It's hilarious for you Radii.....

I had Lumberg as a boss her about 3 months ago...however, when the acquisition happened they forced him into resignation.

But we constantly joke..

"Ahh, I'm going to have to go ahead and ask you to come in on Sunday, too..."

panerd 08-19-2004 10:24 AM

I have never had a boss like Lumberg, but have had several neighbors exactly like Lawrence. (this is after college, almost everyone was like Lawrence in college) They would come over and drink my beer and watch my cable, but I never kicked them out because they always kept me entertained with stories similar to the doubling up millionaire or the "I believe you would get your ass kicked for saying some like that."

Do what all bitter employees do: Buy a red stapler and display it prominently as an act of defiance.

But, if they move him into a storage room in the basement, how is anyone going to see it?

Hi, my name is Steve. I come from a rough area. I used to be addicted to crack but now I am off it and trying to stay clean. That is why I am selling magazine subscriptions.

PC Load Letter? What the fuck does that mean?

When are they going to come out with either:

Office Space 2

or

A Collector's Edition of Office Space

They came out with a V.I.P. Edition of Showgirls, for sake!

From what I understand Mike Judge has a problem with the people who released Office Space and because of that you won't see either of those two things for a while

I've really always wanted a poster of this:

prominantly displayed in my cubicle. I think maybe that + a red stapler would get the point across quite nicely.

terpkristin 08-19-2004 11:15 AM

I have this one on my desk as I try to stumble my way through my thesis: http://www.despair.com/demotivators/daretoslack.html

Granted, I have no intention of ever having an Office Space-style job, but then again, does anybody ever intend to?

Of course not. But somehow, they always seem to find you. Take me. I'm in a half-cubicle with a bunch of other people surrounding me making phonecalls all day. And I wanted to be a historian!!! Gotta pay the bills.

I can't stop laughing at this one:


oliegirl 08-19-2004 12:35 PM

Well honey, at least you have the Hawaii t-shirt my parents brought you from their Maui trip...I would say that qualifies as a Hawaiian Shirt :)
