The Sheila Variations

"Hey, Bryan, the TPS report is supposed to have the new cover sheet. Bryan, make sure the TPS report has the new cover sheet before it goes out. Hey Bryan, didn't you get the the memo? I'll send you the memo."

You don't know what it's like, Sheila. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE!

Our office culture has been taken over by "Office Space." We wear Hawaiian shirts every Friday. We listen to gangsta rap while carpooling to lunch. One of these days I'm going to lose it and take a power drill to my cubicle.

You're welcome. ;-)

Love love love that movie. The scene where they 'beatdown' the fax machine in the field is a classic.

The manager at the Friendly's joint is a comic genius.

Bryan:

Cheer up. At least you don't work in a Friendly's joint where you are reprimanded by a tight-ass manager who thinks you aren't wearing enough "flair".

Sheila,

HAHAHA!

Yes, if my boss starts telling me that I need to wear more flair, I'm going to be really worried.

I had my annual performance review last week, and I was imagining the following exchange between me and my boss:
"Bryan, would you tell me what a typical day is like for you?"
"Well, first when I come in in the morning, I usually space out for an hour."

Dan,

I don't know if you were privy to the history of this, but it turns out that I have the misfortune of having the responsibility at my company of producing the weekly, no joke, TPS report. I was given this responsibility before I had seen "Office Space," so once the teasing began, I had to see it as a matter of self-defense.

I also love the massacre of the copy machine, especially the part where Michael Bolton loses it and has to be restrained by the two others.

I get treated like Peter, and I don't even get to date Jennifer Aniston. Man!

TPS reports are real! Oh, the humanity!

Yeah,, the restraining Boloton part is the icing on the cake. That scene literally makes me cry with laughter.
