<< what does the secratery say over and over in the movie...sounds like "copintownhouse meeting, just a moment" could never figure it out >>

I think she is just saying the company name in answering the phone, what's the name of the company, I know they show it and say it during the movie.

The company name is Initech, but that's not what she says.

She says "Corporate Accounts Payable, Nina speaking. Just a moment."

the company name is anentech isnt it ( sounds like anandtech, hmm). doesnt sound like she is saying that.. man that movie is the funniest. that traffic scene at the beginging craked me up for hours.

 

[TekViper]

[StageLeft]

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta <- ghetto boys

[Martin]

Man, that movie still cracks me up.

Living proof that a movie that cost peanuts to make can be better and huge multi million dollar "block busters".

Very good! Is there anything which cannot be answered here on Anandtech?

I need to see that movie again now.

Watched it several times right after I came out of a year working in an office complex.

Accounts Payable is something that is talked about frequently in real "office space", and "corporate" just fit.



Besides, I have sharp ears. I guess it makes up for the fact that I'm clinically considered blind in my right eye, and even in my left my vision is so poor my eye doctor won't even bother wasting my time giving me an exam for a driver's license.

 

[worth]

Hehe, if you ever worked in an office, you know what Accounts Payable is

Nope, who needs Google (except for help with song lyrics) when you have AT
