So you're the manager now?
guess you've seen office space and ted also
first of all, that movie was based.
Secondly, you seem to be doing good OP. Since your plan became disrupted at square 1, you should keep working to become a manager. Once done, find a young, uninspired worker, and then do the whole thing that he did in the movie, save killing him. We don't want any murderers over here, just scheming fellows.

This, except you need to kill the manager with a deep fryer.

This got me.
This fucking thread haha
for once a good thread on this shithole
there needs to be more greentext and less whining desu (yes i know im whining in this post)

No. Immediately afterwards I drove to Burger King and tried to offload the patties on them.
I was forced to accept well below market value for the beef in order to establish a business relationship, and then I started angling for a job there, but once again the manager was very enthusiastic about hiring me.
I'm just not sure I'm cut out for this lifestyle.

This is some real cringe shiiiiiiit mann
Weird parallel to the movie, but I did the same kind of speech to a news team that was doing a piece on my campus about some holocaust survivor. They had me doing shit work at first for free but eventually hired me officially as a van driver when I was definitely not qualified but acted like I was.
Now I work around the station under a job of tech support even though I don't know what the fuck I'm doing, I just make myself look useful. Even dating the weather woman who came onto me since I always was about and tried to be upbeat and friendly and helpful. Compliments too, again just pretending to be useful. I've even sort of got her fooled that I'm not a total fucking loser.
So weird and fucked up, but the movie oddly changed my life.

I'm sure you're real proud of yourself, but no one cares about your job.
>>28805961
have you seen any movies from before 2010?
>>28806067
about to watch it, thanks familia

It's been described as very similar to Drive in terms of tone and atmosphere and stuff. One scene even takes place in the same diner that Irene worked at.

>Where a private plane crashed with no survivors
Was this a nod to the dark knight rises plane crash scene?

Get the fuck off of /r9k/ and 4chan for that matter.
Does Gyllenhaal have some crazy bug eyes or is it just the screenshot?
