OK so who thought when they brought the business consultants in

"Man if I was back bring a permie again, knowing what I know having been a contractor I wouldn't be afraid of being canned, I'd be lineing myself up for promotion"

Look out for the quote "We fixed the glitch". Love it. Man who is in scrubs called "Perry" says it. Perfect comic delivery.

If you have freeview, my top tip for IT contractors is to watch this tonight,

Film 4 starts at 9pm.

Office Space (1999)

A jaded computer programmer goes to bizarre lengths to get fired from his dull job - but his new laid-back attitude leads to unexpected promotions as his arrogance is taken for supreme self-confidence by unwitting bosses.

Satirical comedy, starring Ron Livingston, Jennifer Aniston, Ajay Naidu and Gary Cole

Category Comedy

I love this film, it is the very rules by which I now live my life as a new BA type person. Laid back is better for you, and implies wisdom. As long as they don't dig too deep, I'll be fine.

Set the Sky+. It's followed by the brilliant, but less IT relevant "Pan's Labrynth".
