It is one of those movies that anyone who has ever worked in a cubicle can relate too in one way or another. One of my favorite scenes is the "mob murder" of the office printer.

I've never exactly been in a cubicle type job, but I still relate to this movie a lot. Bosses asking you to come in at the last minute for the weekend, silly meetings, printers that never work, standard reports, etc. It's all just too true!

I am reading about some process control methods and lo' - they brought up - Test Procedure Specification reports. I like Dr. Coxs' response...

Isn't the boss in the above video (Stan) actually Mike Judge?

I like to enjoy this in an ALL JOBS SUCK double feature of Clerks and Office Space. In recent years I have added Clerks II to the lineup as well.

That would be an awesome double feature!

I saw this movie again a few months back, and was surprised how relevant it still is. In a way it is even more relevant, especially where I work. I pretty much could see my bosses face on Lumberg when he is asking Peter to work on the weekend. The guy who is paranoid about getting laid off is funny as well, as there are a few guys like that around my work. The whole TPS report thing is funny as well, reminded me of a few reports we had to fill out, and different levels of management telling you to do the same thing over and over.

I loved this movie. For me, Stephen Root as Milton was the highlight.

Office Space is a great movie. Yes Garth, you are correct. Stan is Mike Judge. Has he made any other movies?

I always thought the acronym TPS stood for something unpleasant. . .
