For S & G's...
Which film does this quote come out of:
"And I said, I don't care if they lay me off either, because I told, I told Bill that if they move my desk one more time, then, then I'm, I'm quitting, I'm going to quit. And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were married, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire..."

Man, that was a great movie!
I guessed it as soon as he mentioned 'moves my desk one more time...' because that was a personal issue with me at the DMV for years. No one ever had 'their' desk, you were always being moved and everyone would scavenge the desks, taking whatever they needed from their co-workers. Not a situation that tends to breed contentment.
Did I mention I quit? Yep. After 11 years they moved my damn desk one too many times.  But I draw the line at burning the place down...

I actually had a stapler thrown at my head while I worked there.  Never did I imagine I would experience such hostility and hatred in a job. I did my best to make each customer happy, and I did win a lot of awards, but in the end it was making me cry almost every day.  All that and low pay, too! What a combination! No wonder I lasted 11 years. Yeah...it sucked.

omg, how terrible.
(despite me kinda laughing about the stapler thing)
Yeah sometimes a pillar induvidual like that can be hated a lot. Only because it's too obvious that's who you are in the workplace etc...
Unless I'm making a mistake and an actual DMV customer threw the stapler... But I'm assuming that's a tool for people behind the desks; hence, employee trouble.
Sometimes it's a power issue and not getting their way blah blah, what have we all not learned about jealousy right?
Lou, I'm gonna have to dig up another award for you...
lol
Okay:
 poor lil guy though...
