One little detail that seems to be getting overlooked is how he’s cleaning down his keyboard before signing the card. I think we’ve all had at least one job in which we’ve done small meaningless things like that just to help pass the time.

I’ve loved this show forever and rewatched it millions of times. How the heck have I never seen this?😭

Accounts receivable is solid office job.

I can’t lie I actually laugh that he said wife

Weird how nothing has changed in 11 years. I expect I will be back in 11 years to say the same. Weird. ....sup log, will i say 'weird' in 2035 or something else. Future AI assist life remind me of this moment and make what i said just then a lil bit cooler, ok? Not too much but ok? Cool.

My favorite moment from the show

This is scarier than horror movies

As Borat: "Ah like a-you, you like a-me."

Bob working in an office is the spinoff we never knew we needed.

Only a few years ago I thought that this scene was absurd. Now I agree with him completely. Wasting your life in an office space like that his literal depression of hell

I was expecting another kind of office...

Im the "hey, what are we talking about?" guy. 😅

It feels cursed to imagine Bob Belcher with a nine to five

Some peoples nightmares are Michael Scott's dreams, hopes and desires.

literally my reaction watching "The Office"

It's real because it wasn't even a good Borat impression

I'm in accounts receivables and this is literally my life. I was doing 0:41 at my cubicle today. I even drive a Camry to work!

How is office work a "nightmare." My nightmare is food service, factory, warehouse, and any industrial work.

Just imagine a world where comedy central didnt give jon h. Benjamin a van!! 😅

Whoever did the music made such a seamless transition from upbeat to sinister. Props.

The birthday card signing and obligatory office cake is too real. Drives me nuts

Bob's nightmare is my life.

This is my life now...

The whole score of this scene started out upbeat and positive, and of course Bobbo singing in his car.....the score gradually changes to a serious nightmarish effect and then the icing on the cake, after the first "ma wife" the screaming siren. Great chage from positive to negative

One of the few instances where Bob seems really happy and fulfilled and he wakes up screaming… 😂

Is it weird how this looks like a nice job life?

Squidward: We Do This For 40 Years Then We Die!

Keep in mind, Bob is actually happy in his dream, but it’s his nightmare because he’d loose his imagination. But chooses to stay miserable in reality because he’ll be able to keep his creativity

This was 11 years ago Jesus

This ..... Honestly is very accurate.

Ironies of ironies that job will get performance reviewed. Absolute nightmare

Kathy said it’s tea when Bob thought it was ramen, which came out of a water cooler. Yep, definitely a dream.

This isn't how an office life is, just stereotypes. The people who comment like it's accurate are definitely still students.

As someone who has worked both customer service AND office jobs, I can now firmly say that there's really no winning. They eat at your soul in different ways, especially if in spite of having an above average wage you're still struggling to make ends meet because once upon a time you bought into the idea that college=success and you could really know what you were meant to do with your life at 18...*siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh*

I don't get it. I've never had a job like this in my life. Can anyone tell me why Bob is so distressed?

Baffling as to why this show is popular, How is anything in this clip funny?

Good lord how scarily accurate this is 😂

I am looking to leave teaching, but I also think about the office jobs out. Office Space and this scene makes me not want that shit either. I mean how long can you look at a screen doing spreadsheets, writing and responding to emails, sitting in traffic to go do that shit every day.

"My Wiife" are the two funniest words in the english language. IDK why but it's true. Say it right now.

I mean I hate office jobs, but not because of this. I feel like thw writers of the show have never done any other job. If you saw this clip and thought, 'i hate that', buckle up for reality. Crappy rude co workers. Unreasonable work demands. Ridiculous work rules. Thats why office jobs suck. Not just a dude who does a passable borat.

The reason I chose a trade

I was reminded of these because of those weirdos in social media that like to romanticize working at an office. Those who call being stuck in traffic "the commute", I hate that word now.

Office is better than field work

Bah bah bah bah bahbah BOW! bah bah bah bah bahbah BOOWW! Hahahaahaha

"To the J-Man" is the one that gets me.

Culture

A perpetually struggling fry cook having nightmares about a boring, comfortable job with a living wage is levels of funny.

This is my nightmare and Im stuck in it

When I was younger I used to view this from the same perspective as Bob. Now that I’m older this is still accurate AF, but I actually love all that stuff. I’m very blessed though to work for a midsized company that cares about its employees and compensates them relatively fairly, so I’m sure that makes these encounters 100x better.

The way the music reaches an unnerving, terrifying crescendo at the point of a Borat reference.
