Discovered this one a couple years ago. Somewhat funny. Interesting to see Jennifer Aniston in her role. It's by the guy who did Beavis and Butthead on MTV.

Oddly enough it didn't really hit home until around a year ago. I'm an engineer working for a 26 billion odd dollar a year company in a cubicle-ish world. One day one one the people over the wall just stopped coming in. We really didn't know why but would get calls saying they would be in tomorrow and never show up. Went on for weeks. Oddly enough, the person just didn't get fired (and kept getting paid, through sick leave and vacation pay). It took a few weeks and documentation that they were not there before the company would assume the person was an "assumed quit". They wouldn't even fire them...

Anyway, made the movie all the more relvant.
