Office Space (1999) is a great movie. An artful satire on the realities of everyday life of office clerks. You definitely will get a special type of emotions from viewing, if your work is directly related to office routine. Every time I'm filling the tax forms for my co-workers, like 8825 form I keep remembering this movie.

I suppose you have to enjoy a certain type of comedy to truly appreciate Office Space. Be open-minded when you watch it! There are so many great scenes (like taking a terrible fax/printer to an open field and beat it to death with bats etc.) and great quotes (my favorite is always going in the background of the office scenes: "Corporate account receivables, Nina speaking, just a moment." and she just repeats it over and over. A stellar cast tops it all off. No idea how they made it for $10m. Ron Livingston is superb in his 'I just don't give a shit about work anymore' attitude. Jennifer Anniston is just a quirky waitress that works nearby. Ron's attitude is definitely rubbing off on her. Gary Cole plays the stereotypical boss. Stephen Root plays the office hermit who ultimately.. well, you will have to watch it!
