    Top Tip Film4 Tonight: Office Space

    If you have freeview, my top tip for IT contractors is to watch this tonight,

    Film 4 starts at 9pm.

    Office Space (1999)

    A jaded computer programmer goes to bizarre lengths to get fired from his dull job - but his new laid-back attitude leads to unexpected promotions as his arrogance is taken for supreme self-confidence by unwitting bosses.

    Satirical comedy, starring Ron Livingston, Jennifer Aniston, Ajay Naidu and Gary Cole

    SASGuru has based his entire life on the premise of that movie...
    ‎"See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."

            Set the Sky+. It's followed by the brilliant, but less IT relevant "Pan's Labrynth".

              mmmm and if you flick onto channel 97 after that you should get Horny Housewives from Hull or similar.

                  I love this film, it is the very rules by which I now live my life as a new BA type person. Laid back is better for you, and implies wisdom. As long as they don't dig too deep, I'll be fine.
                  Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.
