“Well, I generally come in at least fifteen minutes late. I use the side door; that way Lumberg can’t see me. After that I sorta space out for an hour.”
“Space out?”
“Yeah, I just stare at my desk, but it looks like I’m working. I do that for probably another hour after lunch too. I’d say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work.”
My hero. 
Another fan of the movie chipping in…
looks like all the good lines are taken though 
I was working on a project this summer & we had a couple of hours free (the class we were teaching cancelled) - so I brought in the DVD & played it on my laptop hooked to an overhead projector.
“It’s not that I’m lazy, it’s that I just don’t care” - became our mantra by the end of the project!
Okay, nobody’s gonna believe me, but I just saw this for the first time this morning. My boss quotes it, so I thought I’d better take a peak and be in on the joke.
It was a lot of fun. Frankly, I thought Orlando Jones (“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.”) and Michael McShane (“What about today? Is today the worst day of your life?” “Yeah.” “Wow, that’s messed up!”) had the best lines.
But it was hilarious to see a live-action Bill Dauterive!
The movie is one of those “sleepers” in that I never really appreciated how much I enjoyed it until a couple of months after I saw it. You’ve gotta love any movie that steals part of its plot from Superman III and goes on to acknowledge that it’s from Superman III.
And Stephen Root is my hero.
I am an Office Space fan.
Yeah I love Office Space. I went to go see it in the theater with some friends. We all work(ed) at a college computer lab, so we’re kinda familiar with the PC load letter part. I was practically crying cause I was laughing so hard when they smashed the printer.
Gotta agree on that Superman III thing too. Almost all of the characters are just great. Samir, Steve (magazine guy), Milton, and Tom (jump to conclusions) are my favorites.
If that chick from Logistics wants to see my “O Face,” she’ll have to watch Office Space with me first. Definitely one of the most inspired movies I have ever seen.
Watch out for your corn hole, dude.
Just bought it on video a few weeks ago. Gawd, I love that movie.
Can’t walk into a Friday’s without thinking about flair.
Okay, I’m feeling a little dense here. Could somebody clue me in on the Superman III connection?
Yeah…That’d be greeaat.
When Peter’s talking to Michael (“You know for my money, there’s just nothing better than when he sings ‘When A Man Loves A Woman.’”) Bolton about the virus Michael’s come up with, Michael describes it to him, Peter says, “That sounds familiar.” Michael replies, “Yeah, they used it in Superman III, and some hackers did it back in the 70s.”
What a great movie, it and American Beauty are almost identical to my last job! The night after I got fired, I called up all the cool people at work and left Peter saying, “What if you didn’t have a good job?” on their voicemail.
Damn, it feels good to be a gangsta!
Oreo–do you remember the discussion about where the idea for the virus came from? It was a modified version of the virus in Superman III.
“Samir Naga…Naga…Nagonna work here anymore, anyway!”
Um… yeahhh. Did you get the memo? Tell you what, I’ll just send along another copy, ok?
Michael: “What’s this I hear about you not knowing about Superman III?”
Samir: “Yeah, didn’t you get the memo?”
Hey Peter man, check out channel 9, It’s the breast exam!
Are there any added scenes on the DVD? I just have the video and have eseen the movie 50 times with my wife who also loves it. We also have the CD, which I burned so we can have one in each car!
Favorite line:
Bob 1: What would you say YA DO HERE?!?"
In Superman III Richard Pryor’s character devises a scheme to have a computer program grab all those like fractions of a penny that are genorated through regular company activity… They obviously did the same thing in Office Space.
I have to watch that movie again.
“Why does it say paper jam when THERE EES NO PAPER JAM!!”
I was under the impression that Office Space was filmed in Austin and that the trafficy road at the beginning was 290… And I thought Mike Judge lived in Austin. I know the restaurant they eat at is really The Old Alligator Grill on Lamar…
Anyway
[Michael Bolton] “There was nothing wrong with this name…until that no-talent-ass-clown started winning Grammys”
[Sumir] (pouring cream into his coffee)Yes, I am also not a pussy.
I love that movie.
Man, I have GOT to see this movie [sub]when we finally buy a TV in February[/sub]. I’m crackin’ up over these lines . . .
Another favorite:
PC load letter, what the fuck does that mean?
And these quotes don’t even come close to doing justice to the work of truly awesome genius that is Office Space.
