Why Hacker News recommends it

Mostly a joke reference in threads about layoffs, idleness and wealth, with one commenter sincerely recommending the clip for its contrast of work attitudes.

What it is

A 54-second clip from the film Office Space in which two coworkers talk about what they would do with a million dollars. The answers contrast blue-collar and white-collar attitudes toward work.

Highly recommend to watch the clip from the movie Office Space (only 54 sec long) [1] The guy with the moustache is a blue collar worker and the other one is white collar worker (actually in Tech/IT) [1] [this video]
