The staff suffers under top-heavy, callous management, especially from vice president Bill Lumbergh, whom Peter hates and avoids confronting. Other co-workers are Milton Waddams, a meek collator who mumbles to himself and is mostly ignored by the rest of the office and Tom Smykowski, a jaded product manager who is routinely scared of being fired. He is friends with co-workers Samir Nagheenanajar and Michael Bolton (who hates having the same name as the famous singer). Unable to stand up to his overcritical girlfriend, Anne, he is in love with local waitress Joanna, but is afraid to speak to her.
MIKES BUDGET AUTO SALES SOFTWARE
Peter Gibbons is a frustrated and unmotivated programmer who works at a Texas-based software company called Initech. Judge's 2009 film Extract is also set in an office and was intended as a companion piece to Office Space. Swingline introduced a red stapler to its product line after the Milton character used one painted that color in the film. A scene in which the three main characters systematically destroy a dysfunctional printer has been widely parodied. Several aspects of the film have become Internet memes. It was a box office disappointment, making $12.2 million on a $10 million production budget however, after repeated airings on Comedy Central, it sold well on home video, and has become a cult film. The film's sympathetic depiction of ordinary information technology workers garnered a cult following within that field, but it also addresses themes familiar to white-collar employees and the workforce in general.
MIKES BUDGET AUTO SALES SERIES
It is based on Judge's Milton cartoon series and was his first foray into live-action filmmaking and his second full-length motion picture release, following Beavis and Butt-Head Do America. Office Space was filmed in Dallas and Austin, Texas.
It stars Ron Livingston, Jennifer Aniston, Gary Cole, Stephen Root, David Herman, Ajay Naidu, and Diedrich Bader. It satirizes the worklife of a typical 1990s software company, focusing on a handful of individuals weary of their jobs. Office Space is a 1999 American satirical black comedy film written and directed by Mike Judge.
