Seriously, Office Space is garbage. It's a boy-meets-girl boy-loses-girl boy-gets-girl flick starring JENNIFER ANISTON fer chrissakes. A couple of jokes about staplers do not a funny movie make.
It may be useful to note that the US government will treat a catastrophic internet event in the same manner as they would a catastrophic attack on the telephone, electric, or even road infrastructure.
By what, doing nothing? Two words: New Orleans. The US government can't even defend its citizens and infrastructure against BAD WEATHER.
You mean the people that work in service jobs today aren't the stupid ones?

I say this was all due respect: English, motherfucker. Do you speak it?
Are you seriously arguing scientific credibility between the author of "The Terminal Man"... and a fellow of the frickin' Royal Society?!
I always throw half of the resumes into the trashcan unread. That helps ensure that I don't hire anyone unlucky.
Hey, I've got a couple of ideas. Let's call it... "Active Desktop"!
