Office Space1999

Joanna:
So, where do you work, Peter?

Peter Gibbons:
Initech.

Joanna:
In... yeah, what do you do there?

Peter Gibbons:
I sit in a cubicle and I update bank software for the 2000 switch.

Joanna:
What's that?

Peter Gibbons:
Well see, they wrote all this bank software, and, uh, to save space, they used two digits instead of four. So, like, 98 instead of 1998? Uh, so I go through these thousands of lines of code and, uh... it doesn't really matter. I uh, I don't like my job, and, uh, I don't think I'm gonna go anymore.

Joanna:
You're just not gonna go?

Peter Gibbons:
Yeah.

Joanna:
Won't you get fired?

Peter Gibbons:
I don't know, but I really don't like it, and, uh, I'm not gonna go.

Joanna:
So you're gonna quit?

Peter Gibbons:
Nuh-uh. Not really. Uh... I'm just gonna stop going.

Joanna:
When did you decide all that?

Peter Gibbons:
About an hour ago.

Joanna:
An hour ago... so you're gonna get another job?

Peter Gibbons:
I don't think I'd like another job.

Joanna:
Well, what are you going to do about money and bills and...

Peter Gibbons:
You know, I've never really liked paying bills. I don't think I'm gonna do that, either.

Joanna:
So what do you wanna do?

Peter Gibbons:
First I'm gonna take you out to dinner, and then I'm gonna go back to my apartment and watch kung fu. Do you ever watch kung fu?

Joanna:
I love kung fu.

Peter Gibbons:

Joanna:
Totally.

Peter Gibbons:
You should come over and watch kung fu tonight.

Joanna:
Ok. Ok. Can we order lunch first? Ok.
