Top 5 Workplace Comedies


Top 5 Workplace Comedies
In honor of this upcoming Labor Day I have assembled the Top 5 Workplace Comedies (of all time). Nothing is better than getting a laugh from some million dollar Hollywood star who’s basically playing you, working at your crappy job. So sit back, turn on your Netflix machine, and watch one of these gems.


5.)


Waiting... - (2005)
Being a waiter/waitress sucks. How do you get through your day? Show your ball bag off to all your co-workers! No I’m not talking about you bowling bag. Back in 2005, when Ryan Reynolds was actually the go-to guy for a comedy, this workplace comedy came out and showed everyone that you don’t mess with the people who prepare your food.


4.)


Horrible Bosses - 2011
Nothing can ruin your whole life quite like a horrible boss. These ball bags take the case. We have a boss that laughs at the death of your grandmother, another who is constantly using her power as a boss to sexually assault you, and another who demands you fire all the fat and disabled employees. What is the solution to the issue at hand? Murder!


3.)


Anchorman - 2004
The entirety of this move is one big quote. The quote of all movie quotes. Take any line out of it at random and it translates to an epic comedy movie quote. “I’m in a glass case of emotion!” “I love lamp.” “I love Scotch. Scotchy, scotch, scotch. Here it goes down, down into my belly…” Catch my drift?


2.)


Clerks - 1994
No one likes getting called in on their day off. This particular day in particular is the worst of all days. You find out some unsettling things about your girlfriend’s past and the ex-girlfriend you still have a thing for is getting married. Not to mention the job itself sucks with the shutters of the store not opening and all of the stupid customers who ask stupid questions about the construction of the Death Star. The biggest contribution to the movie scene this move had however was the introduction of none other than Jay and Silent Bob. “Who smokes the blunts? We smoke the blunts!”


1.)




Office Space - 1999
This movie has every kind of workplace fantasy that any cubicle jockey has ever dreamt up. From just not giving a flying fudge about your job all the way to burning the entire building to the ground. Want to rip your company off without them noticing? Go for it! Want to beat that piece of shiz copy machine into oblivion? Yup, and we brought the baseball bat. It has it all. Office Space is the ultimate therapy for the begrudged employee.

Enjoy your Labor Day weekend, sit back with a cold one, and fire up some workplace hilarity with the Top 5 Workplace Comedies.

  1. I agree with #1 completely, but having 'Waiting' in the #5 spot? Come on! That's at least top three!
