That is AWESOME!
Having worked a non-creative, brain cell/motivation-sucking tech help desk gig for years, I can even appreciate this more!
Sadly, I still work a full-time corporate job but, with a bigger cubicle (bigger cube=less probabilty of meltdown!).

P.S.-I think the REALLY interesting part of this video is the employees who, seemingly unphased, just keep working along as the employee in question has his meltdown.

I get it. Believe me, I get it. I have had passing fancies of human-on-CPU violence.
But, people: THE MONITOR IS NOT YOUR ENEMY. It was doing its job, but is now in cathode-ray heaven because it got in your path.

All I can say is
PC Load Letter, baby. PC Load Letter.
It also made my mind wander back to the old Reebok ads with Terry Tate, The Office Linebacker. I LOVED that whole series. If you want to reminisce or are unfamiliar, here's an oldie but goodie:

I thought Clickty Clack was another variation of "VO cubicle hell".

I think the best "scene" of the whole video was in the bathroom and the fire extinguisher. I have ALWAYS wanted to do that!!
No offense to the smokers out there!

Someone told me yesterday that I should reconsider the whole free lance thing and I was like "Well...I make (x amount of dollars) a year" and then they were like "That's more than I make... How did you get started doing that? That's amazing!"
I directed them to my VO blog and now they're thinking about doing VO on the side. We'll see!
I just thought that was funny. Great movie, I've watched it a dozen times. Seems to be loading slowly. I would search for Bad Day At The Office on youtube if you want to watch it without lag. |

VOICE is strictly "pants-optional"
It's SoCal!
