🖨️💼 Office Space at VIFF - work is fake and the printer deserved it
Some comedies age badly. Office Space did something more annoying: it kept getting more accurate. Bad management. Meaningless tasks. Corporate language. Tiny humiliations. People slowly dying under fluorescent lights while pretending the printer is the problem.

About this event
Public movie outing - everyone buys their own ticket.
Short summary
Some comedies age badly. Office Space did something more annoying: it kept getting more accurate. Bad management. Meaningless tasks. Corporate language. Tiny humiliations. People slowly dying under fluorescent lights while pretending the printer is the problem. Mike Judge’s 1999 workplace comedy is funny because it is absurd, but it is also funny because a lot of modern work still feels like this with better software and worse Slack messages. This is not a formal discussion event. We’re going to the public VIFF screening together, watching the movie, and letting the shared recognition do some of the work. If you have ever sat in a meeting that should have been an email, this one is probably for you.
How the evening will go
We’ll meet at 6:00 PM at VIFF Centre before the screening. The movie starts at 6:30 PM. This is a public VIFF screening, not a private Meetup event. Everyone buys their own ticket. RSVP here does not reserve your theatre seat.
