One of my favorite movies... Actualyl helped convince me to get out of big-corporate work. I worked for a Lumberg... I remember people getting into arguments because I got a chair with ARMS and I was a new guy...

Scarey stuff that.... ...best movie ever.

DAMN It feels good to be a gangsta!!!

My old boss WAS Lumberg.. Looked just like him, talked just like him, wore the suspenders and had the shirts with the opposing colored collars and cuffs..

It's funny how accuratley that movie nailed the weird tech company office enviroment.

I'd change my name to "Lumburg" if it meant I could drive a 911 and bang Jennifer Aniston!

I actually find myself wandering around with my Porsche crest coffee cup all the time. I periodically say things like "Yeah, um, you know it'd be really great if you could do such-and-such." Ew, I disgust myself. And I don't even get to have Jenifer Anniston!

You guys don't get "The Office" (on tv), do you?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/theoffice/

Like Officespace, but in a series and (IMHO) better. Anyone who's ever worked in an office can identify or identify with the main participants.
