Office Space ?

Hard to believe that movie is almost two decades old now.

Didn’t the main character not return to tech and end up in construction? And none of his buddies left tech because of the toxic environment ... they were let go. Forgive me if I misunderstood your comment.

And yeah, it’s hard to believe it’s been that long. And it’s an awesome movie

Funky anecdote coming up.

We went to see Office Space when it was in the cinemas, after having heard a number of good things about it. There were 8 of us. 7, myself included, kept bursting into laughter throughout the film. The last one didn't really register.

When we walked out, the silent one quipped: "I don't get how that was supposed to be funny. I see that same stuff at work every day."
