Office Space. I could handle horror movies but that one instilled a fear of losing my life to the grind. I pretty much set up my whole career to avoid it. On the other hand, I'm in a pretty good place because of it. So I guess thanks, Mike Judge

Animator. And I was freelance for most of that time, so didn't have much to do with office bullshit and felt I'm control of my destiny. I switched gears to software engineering, and now I'm fully remote (since well before covid) and work mostly on things I like, and make my own schedule.
