A Office Space That Would Be Great post.
5:15 on a Friday. Your manager leans on the desk divider with his coffee. "Yeah, if you could just come in tomorrow, that would be great." He walks off before you can be a person about it. Your landlord texts: "Hi! If you could just keep the flat viewing-ready every day this week, that'd be super." There are viewings. Of your flat. While you're in it, eating cereal, being viewed. Your sister: "If you could just pick the kids up from school, and give them tea, and do their reading, and maybe keep them overnight, that would be amazing x". She isn't ill. She's at a spa. A note from upstairs is pushed under your door. "If you could just walk a bit more quietly after 10, that would be great." You were sitting down. You've been sitting down since Tuesday. **Why it caught on:** Gary Cole's Bill Lumbergh in Mike Judge's Office Space (1999) never raises his voice, just stands at your desk with a mug asking you to come in on Saturday, which is far worse than shouting. The film flopped in cinemas and found its audience among people who recognised their own boss.
