My number one scene in any film that has ever been made is in Office Space, and it’s a certainly funny film, with a lot of laughs, but 1 scene in unique makes our heart sing.
- It is when the men from the office take the problematic printer out into a field and beat it to pieces… The rock n roll is blaring, and they vent their rage against the machine with hammers and clubs.
This is something I wish I can do, but life isn’t a film and I would just get fired. I keep pushing the bosses to beginning using professional printing services, but they keep saying all of us need to keep it “in house.” I have absolutely gone to pawn shops looking for used equipment, just to be able to have a printer to take to the woods and smash with a sledge hammer, then a current printer costs a pretty penny, but some of the used 1s are available for twenty bucks, so I think I can afford to make our cinematic dream a reality. At the local flea market there is a locale that has a ton of used equipment, everything from classic Xerox machines to current day laminators… For a hundred bucks I could buy enough used unit to smash until our arms were tired. Then I have to think about if it would be worth it? A hundred bucks is still a lot of money, and this isn’t even the printing unit that has given me such trouble at the office. Perhaps I will just keep pushing the bosses to switch to printing services.
