Office Space - Damn It Feels Good to Be a Gangsta (Full Song Music Video) 

"Well you don't need a million dollars to do nothing" - that's such a liberating thought

Possibly the most important movie made in the modern age.

So about ten years ago I was making this new report at work that was the summary of the status of our total list of projects. I told my boss I was going to name it the "Total Project Summary Reports, or TPS Report for short" figuring he would say "yea right. guess again." But... he had never seen the movie. so for years every week I delivered the TPS Report. Everyone except the managers were in on the joke. People would say to me "How can you talk about something called the TPS Report with a straight face?" Finally, one day he came to my desk grinning and said "I saw this move last night I had never seen before and it made me think of you." I said "Oh yea? what movie?" and he replied "Office Space." And then EVERYONE within earshot DIED laughing. The joke that had been years in the making finally reached its punchline.

I quit my cubicle job after watching this film and got a job as a construction worker. Everyone thought I was nuts. Twenty years later, I own a construction firm, and I am happy. Few months ago I met one of my ex colleague at Walmart. He is a manager now, but told me that he is jaded, unhappy and wonders where his life went. I owe my life to this film.

I worked as a stockbroker for the better part of my twenties (2013-2018) and absolutely hated it. One day my boss told me to wash his land rover on my lunch break and joked in a serious way that if i didn't i’d lose my job. Something just snapped in me and i told him to go fuck himself and i walked off to my desk. Needless to say i was fired for insulting a superior the next day, and you know what, i was smiling ear to ear walking out of that soulless building. I've been working as a carpenter for the past 2 years and I absolutely love it. Like peter says at the end “aint so bad making bucks, getting some exercise, working outside....." I make less but i’ve never been happier. Legendary movie!

The way they pass that floppy disc around always cracks me up.

The most important documentary that graduates need to watch before experiencing the soulless corporate world

"You don't need a million dollars to do nothing, man." Wise, wise gentleman there.

When I quit my corporate job, this was the first song that came to mind 😄

Funny how the guy who made Beavis and Butthead, Idiocracy and Office Space is probably one of the smartest guys around👌

Ladies and gentlemen, please rise for the anthem dedicated to those who left their toxic jobs during the pandemic and never looked back

FUN FACT: Everyone balked at the suggestion any rap music be used in the film during production. Turned out to be a brilliant idea. This is one of the most replayed scenes in the movie.

This movie is a masterpiece.

using the TPS reports to clean his fish was such a power move

I love when his neighbor yells out "don't worry man I won't tell anyone either" funny shit 🤣

0:59 The shot of Peter ripping down the corporate propaganda poster is so damn satisfying. We all need, at one point in our lives, to stop thinking about what's "good for the company" and instead, about what's good for ourselves!

The way he just guts the fish there and when his boss wants to talk to him and he just slip past him always gets me.

I think Office Space saved my life more times than I give it credit for. I remember being suicidal and a manager at a cubical tech job and I would put scenes on from this film and it felt more spiritual than any church. It made me laugh again. And not long after I quit that shit hole.

I love that they had him driving a Toyota Corolla, widely known as the most boring car on the planet. Details like that and the random pictures of the office building on the walls just makes the movie even more legendary.

I could watch that movie a million times and not get tired of it.

Everyone's had that job that causes them to get to this point

This scene changed my life... priceless!

This movie speaks to my SOUL.

A couple weeks after this was published I announced my retirement. My boss was literally begging me to stay. A year later I still occasionally get a call "how did we do this, or why did we do that? Now my biggest decision is what way to go to take the dog for a 3 mile walk in the morning. Damn It Feels Good to Be a Gangsta

This movie laid the groundwork for all office comedy shows and movies we know and love today.

I only ever quit a job once. Because my supervisor was a total jerk. It felt great. Ended up working there again once he was gone. And took his job.

The movie SCREAMED "this is YOU!" at me in my early twenties. Thank God I had the sense to leave that grind. I love my little workshop, and wouldn't give it up for the world.

I just quit today. Remembered this song. Damm it feels good to be a gangsta.

Milton was the best character in this movie. This is such a Friday movie. Come home on a Friday night after slogging for 5 days, and watch this underrated gem

One of the greatest movies of our time and such a testament to the human spirit within all of us. God Bless Mike Judge!

This is a classic. Relevant to so many. So quotable. Has so many zingers. So rewatchable.

This movie saved my life by helping me quit my job and stop being scared of finding new opportunities. Best movie ever 🔥

God I love this movie. "Nah don't worry about him, hes cool".

“You know, I never really liked paying bills - I don’t think I’m gonna do that either”. If we all did this, we’d rule.

This movie is timeless. As relevant today as it was 20 years ago. It's aging better than Citizen Kane.

Is it possible for a film to be loved by many and still underrated?

When this came out I was in IT and my wife worked at Chilis, so you can just imagine.... haha

I rented this one day at Blockbuster many years ago. I didn’t know I was renting a modern masterpiece. My kids quote it at every opportunity!

I quit a job in the middle of a MS Teams meeting.

Love this ! 22 years at a large research telecom and laid off, hits home.

This is kinda the perfect quarantine movie

When a movie comes us that we don't deserve, but the movie we needed. How many lives has this movie saved 👍🏾

Im living the dream as well. After i watched this movie 9 years back i vowed never to get a job in corporate, Started my own business, and work for myself now. I set my own work timings , wear whatever i want wakeup whenever i want..Feelsgood .

I worked in the literal basement in the our company’s IT department as an intern. I tried so damn hard to get a permanent job but I couldn’t move up didn’t have the right certs and every nearby department had groomed interns for positions. I said fuck it and joined the trades helper grind crew. I get paid 24-38$ an hour doing honest labor and damn it feels good.

One of the best comedies of all time.

Recently quit a job for more money, better hours, more challenging and diverse work, thought of this movie and played this song pulling out of work.

I remember getting fired back in 2014 and automatically feeling instantly relieved and within a week feeling less and less depressed, sold my shares of the company stocks and getting a $10k check which helped me pay for my bills and mortage until I found a better job a couple of months later. Sometimes you have good jobs but shitty workplace enviroment which makes you end up hating everything about it, even yourself.

This man made this movie as a series of animated shorts he drew and voice acted himself. Also made Bevis & Butthead, Daria, and King of the Hill. Mike is an amazing man.

EVERYTIME I hear this song it brings a smile on my face.

How you feel during your last 2 weeks at a job.

The mob-like execution of the the printer was so satisfying. Companies are always accustomed to buying cheap office hardware and when it gets broken due to tear and wear, these bastards track you mercilessly down and take it from your paycheck.

I thank Mike Judge.. Love, respect and thousands of times salutation to him for making this eye opening classic film..

If you’re here...I applaud your taste in music ❤❤

I watched this movie when I was younger thinking it would just be funny and it was and still is but damn I did not expect to get a major life lesson that I still carry with me today. Life is a gift and its too short to spent your time unhappy

So far I have quit 8 jobs in 9 years and everytime I do it the feeling of happiness is great!!!

Never seen this actor do anything else but this movie, and he never has to do anything else because this scene has cemented itself into legend

I'm playing Steam games at work and listening to this during my last two weeks of the shittiest job of my life.

I gave my red stapler to a good friend/fellow stuck person when I gave my notice after twelve plus years. I told him it was a symbol of oppression and I signed it with a black sharpie: "Damn, it feels good to be a gangsta." Last day is May 2nd.

Love this scene. Perfect mix of bad ass, laid back feeling free and comedic.

Stephen Root as Milton...his characterization is timeless. Root also played the blind DJ in "O Brother, Where Art Thou" and a Klingon Commander in Star Trek: The Next Generation.

When my job announced it was closing its site I was so relieved and happy! Working in a cubicle at a call center for 3 years was brutal! I bounced back and make much more money in something I enjoy doing.

I'm living this lifestyle. Quit my job and moved to a new country, and then got hired back six months later as a "casual employee" with a raise. I don't get healthcare anymore, but I don't need it either since we have socialized medicine here. I work whatever hours I want, whatever days I want. The weather is amazing all year round. I spend my mornings with my cat, work a few hours in the afternoon and drink with my new friends all night. My social life, which had practically disappeared for years, is the best it's ever been. I had my first girlfriend in years (that part was kind of a disaster, but whatever). I started drawing again and even developed a little bit of a reputation in the local art community. I wrote half a novel and one day I'll totally finish it. It's been the best year of my life. And if anything I think I'm slightly MORE productive working less than half time. I'm going to ask for a raise again soon and I'm going to get it. They love me there, and I love them, because they deserve it. You don't have to live this way. You really don't. Set expectations for your life and live up to them.

This music makes me feel full of energy

It's no accident that this movie has resurged in popularity in the last few years, I think you all know why.

They didn’t put in the single best line of all time from this movie: “I’ve been doing absolutely nothing and it was everything I thought it would be.”

This movie was PERFECTLY casted.. NAILED IT!

This movie is so accurate on many levels. About the time it came out we had the Bob and Bob show come in to ask what we did. Didn't our bosses know? The printer, the middle manager who does nothing, all spot on. Lastly, notice how all the office workers crave for a window view and how he loves working outside.... We weren't meant to sit in cloth covered boxes.

Lost count of how many times I've seen this movie. Such a classic !

just ripped the tag off my mattress........Damn it feels good to be a gangsta 🔹🔹🔹🔹

Side note: I can watch this movie a thousand times and I'll always be surprised at the casting choice of Jennifer Aniston. There's no complaints, she's just never expected here, in a sense.

I didnt' realize how much I needed this video until it came up in my suggestions. Thank you.

This is a different situation entirely, but one time I had a job and I was really anxious all the time about it. Working my ass off, coming home tired everyday, boss finding more and more things to hound me about. One day I just said, "Boss, you're gonna hate me, but I'm leaving and I might not be back." She warned me not to do it. I took off my uniform, got on my bike, and rode home. Didn't show up the next day. Thought one no-call/no-show would be enough to get rid of me. They called me every day for about a week leaving messages asking where I was, that "my absence is being investigated", and that if I continue to miss work, I may be suspended/terminated from the job, despite not showing up for the last week. They finally "terminated my employment" when they realized I wasn't coming back (not until they had my final check ready for me). Never saw that boss again. Realized that the company needed me way more than I "needed" them.

This movie helped me realize my dream of retiring early. At the end, they just couldn't get me to care but I just did enough not to get fired.

Lawrence was the real gangsta of this movie!

freedom is not about doing what you want to do but rather about not doing what you do not want to do

I liked how he took that cubicle apart and got a window view. I worked for a sociopath and one day out of the blue he announces that we are moving offices across town. Tells me and a co worker Nick to follow him over to the new place. I ask him what is the address? And he says just follow me. So he speeds through town in his silly little Lexus sports car making Nick and I chase him dangerously for no good reason. Anyway, later we get moved and Boss tells me to set up a two section cubical in this big room with windows to parking lot on one side and this fish bowl window to the hallway. I figure I am quitting anyway because the commute is too much and this boss is nuts. So I assemble the cube to block the fishbowl window and give me a nice big view to outside and Boss has no view into "fishbowl". Boss was perturbed. It was not what he expected. Nick and I quit a few weeks later same day.

Walked out of my job just recently.. with not a care in the world. it felt so good walking out of that shithole.

Perfect movie, perfect video, perfect song.

This movie will always have a special place in my heart

This clip should have a billion hits.

I liked Office Space because I could relate. I have worked in offices like that. My dad was a crane operator. He did get the show because he never worked indoors or had somebody looking over his shoulder.

took me a coupla watches to appreciate the depth of this movie, i didn't get it at first. Can't beat the scene where they smash up the photocopier :)

I made it through all my twenties and stuff with not exactly like this but close. Now that I’m fifty I could give a shit less what any boss I have thinks or does. I’ll do my job to the best of my ability but I won’t be bullied, harassed, talked down to, or micromanaged.

This was my life in corporate America for way too long. Eventually I pulled my own “gangsta” move and left abruptly (with notice). I had had enough of “Yes you have a month’s worth of vacation but we need you here because of the special project.” There was ALWAYS a special project… Don’t miss it at all!!!

This song is perfect for this setting and scene. So happy for Peter.

The "do nothing" if you have a million dollars is deeper than it seems.Being able to do nothing, to not have a care in the world, to be in a situation where you don't have to do anything, is a real luxury. It's more valuable than people give it credit for. It's not the same thing as neglecting what you really should do.

Wow after watching this, I NEVER caught the very last scene when they're talking about how good things are... Right before the screen fades to black a foreman is swaggering up to them with coffee in hand, probably to tell them something about worksite regulations, deadlines, working on saturday, or something else that would pretty much start the whole cycle of workplace entropy all over again.

Retired after 32 years in corporate world after having served in US Army for 8 years...and I'm happy to report..I am more relaxed and happier than I've ever been!

Yaaaaasssss!!! And everything's cool in the mind of a gangsta

I am at a job that genuinely makes me miserable and I feel so close to quitting, I feel like I am a few views of this clip away from having the courage to finally quit!

I love this movie and song. All the best parts of it, too. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I have that same alarm clock. Got it when I was in high school in the mid-90s and it still works today.

Judge doesn't get enough credit for a brilliantly placed subtle 4th wall break with David Herman at 3:00.

The fact the Ron clearly knew/learned how to clean a fish for this movie makes him a real OG!

I just realized office space is basically fight club if it were a comedy

I watch this all the time. A great movie. Never gets old. Thanks for sharing this video.

This is a masterpiece really 😩👌

I remember going to the movie theatre to see this. Wow.. where does the time go.

Never seen or heard any song come even close to describing the mood of the movie.

My love for this film is infinite.
