Why is everyone such a fucking asshole in this movie? Are office politics that toxic? The scene with Alec Baldwin is just the tip of the iceberg. Im a Neet and after seeing this movie, I have changed my mind about pursuing an office job career
>>220386137>this is my dick sucking hand
Sales are high pressure alpha male jobs. Sigmas keep the production going, betas do bitch work, alphas keep the customers happy.
>>220386137It's a tough racket
>>220386197According to this movie, sales=scams. They were looking to scam people via the telephone; similar to how pajeets do these days with clueless boomers. Are you implying that scamjeets are alpha males?
Office politics don't exist if you don't let them. It's just people squabbling and gossiping and dragging themselves down. It's stupid easy to just not do that and instantly rise above everyone else. More people should try it.
>>220386137Sales farms are mostly losers getting a carrot dangled in front of them. A carrot they will never get.
>>220386237That depends. Sometimes you get dragged into office politics, especially when you are in a manager position. You can only avoid them if everyone is on the same page and there is a some sort of harmony, or if you are a literally who guy with minimal responsibilities, or the janitor
>>220386137>Alec BaldwinHe literally shot someone in the stomach afterwards angrily screaming at them on a 5 minute long tirade where he said he wanted to kill that person- in front of 50 witnesses and the whole thing was filmed. He got away with it and all charges were dropped with prejudice, due to the Logan act.
>>220386237>It's stupid easy to just not do that and instantly rise above everyone else. More people should try it.If you do that the politickers conspire to politick you out, and you don't see it coming because you've "risen above it" and aren't in communication with them.
>>220386322If Michael Jackson is allowed to rape little boys because he moonwalked, then Alec Baldwin is allowed to shoot a B movie cinematographer because of his performance in 30 Rock. Simple as.
>>220386137Capitalism is designed to make you shed your humanity to increase profits for our corporate overlords.
>>220386322Matthew Broderick killed two women while drunk driving. Mark Wahlberg beat an Asian woman to death in an admitted hate crime. And now he does paid sponsorships with Bible apps.
>>220386338I've never seen this actually happen in my multiple decades of office work. The people who stay out of it stay out of it and do the better for it. This is because 99.9% of it is petty bullshit and the bosses know this and don't care about it.
They were working in some shady office that relied on scamming people into buying land that wasn't worth buying.Why the FUCK is the movie called Glengarry Glenross anyway? It makes it sound like it's set in the Scottish highlands. Glengarry is only mentioned once, Glenross isn't mentioned at all.
>>220386322>And then I said "Rust in peace" and BANG. It was amazing. You should have seen it, Stephen
>>220386137>be OP, a literal NEET>watch a movie from 1992 about desperate scam artists in a cutthroat boiler room real estate firm>"omg is this what an office job is really like?? I'd better stay unemployed!">uses this as an excuse to avoid getting a comfy WFH email job where you actually work 2 hours a day>continues rotting in mom's basement instead>A.B.C.>Always Be Coping
>>220386137because sales dummy
>>220386233all selling is scamming, if people wanted to buy a thing you wouldn't need salesmen
>>220386137>Are office politics that toxic?Office politics is for women. Baldwin in this is extremely effeminate.
>>220386197>Sales are high pressure alpha male jobsSales are female jobs.
>>220386402Snd yet it was socialism that blew up a nuclear reactor over pemny pinching and ruined land for 10 000 years.
>>220387536>Sales are female jobsSays the anon who has never had a job
>>220387600I have a job, not in office though, because I am not a woman, unlike you.
>>220386338>>220386493I haven't been in the office long but so far I've seen the loud and vocal ones come and go more than the ones who just put their heads down and do good work. Two like this were just fired from my office and one was a manager.
>>220386233No anon, they're legitimately selling scam real estate in a florida swamp. If it were made today they would be calling about your car warranty that is about to expire. Not all salesman are scam artist, but these salesmen ARE.
>>220386233sales as presented in this movie are basically seduction, which is a masculine act; jeet scams on the other hand are predicated on tricking the feebleminded. this makes jeet scammers analogous to a pedo grooming a child.>>220387536false. sales are traditionally a male job.>>220387521no. he is direct, aggressive and confrontational, the opposite of how women behave in professional settings
>>220387536Anon you've never worked a job in your life. Sales is like 99% men with the occasional slut. I know our token office slut a few years ago sold pictures on onlyfeet, and got fired because she fell asleep at some training seminar and tried to suck someone's dick in upper management.
>>220386402soviets drained the inland Aral Sea by diverting the water to grow cotton
>>220386137
It's as easy as knowing the product your selling in & out, having a fuckin personality & simply not giving a fuck you fucks
>>220387727>>220387697>Sales is like 99% effeminate menFtfy. Do you also play squash with a guy named Timothy or Jeremy?Any man who remembers the name of their haircutter is a woman, simple as.
>>220387727>got fired because she fell asleep at some training seminarHappens to the best of us, that shit is boring as fuck and being stuck in a stuffy conference room after lunch is like the secret ingredient to pic related
It takes brass balls to murder a woman in front of 20 witnesses.
>>220386583>A.B.C.
>>220386137I really don't get the hype for this movie, is it just meant for people that have never worked in an office or what? It was overall boring and never really got intense, it was just basic office drama. I saw more anger and total meltdowns when I was in luxury car sales than anything of what was shown in this movie.
>>220388212Don't get me wrong, those things suck ass, I was on the same trip that she was (new hire training, I wasn't new, but just got promoted into a position high enough to justify getting flown up to corporate to shake hands with all the big dicks at home office. Its not exactly fun, but they also spend thousands of dollars a day wining and dining you with the explicit understanding that you keep your eyes open for the 4 hours a day you had to sit through meetings with the various teams. I was operations, so we had a different curriculum than the sales teams, a lot of boring shit but still important admin shit we needed to know. But still, you sucked it up for three days and four nights. But she was a fucking trainwreck of a Blonde ditzy party girl on the wrong side of her 20's. Just draped in red flags. I remember multiple times having to diplomatically throw her out of the office a few times because she was just throwing herself at my lead and not taking 'no' for an answer.
>>220388848>I really don't get the hype for this movieThe top tier Mamet dialogue delivered by some of the finest actors of a generation. Nothing that mysterious about it. There's not a lot of flashy direction or editing and its just carried entirely by one masterclass vignette after another. https://youtu.be/kFk1hRGRyAw?si=C8KN6BEqa-u8Qy2I
>>220386583Oh yeah? Well I made 970,000 shitposts last year, how many you make?You see anon, that's who I am and you're nothing""Based and redpilled"? I don't give a shit. "Feed and seed"? FUCK YOU, go home and suck your Chuck!
>>220389308wish i could have such a cool important job like that
>>220387536That's why the term is 'used car saleswoman'.
>>220389435Not really important, I just slid into the role of operations manager for our branch which put me high enough in the organization to get flown once a year to some bullshit gathering where I just try to hide my alcoholism power levels.
watched this with my dad the other day, every actor is at top of their game except for Spacey who is usually my favorite in a movie
>>220386322armorers fault case closed
>>220386528i thought that was their sales company or maybe the address?
>>220388112nothing effeminate about being a great salesman, it takes huge skill and charisma
>>220386528Glengary Highlands and Glen Ross farms were the places with the bullshit land they were trying to sell.
>>220386137>Why is everyone such a fucking asshole in this movieQuintessential boomer power fantasy.
>>220389738What power fantasy retard? They're broke down losers trying to sell scams to pensioners with no where else to go. Have you even seen the movie?
>>220389789Learn to manage your emotions, see you in the next thread.
>>220386402Whereas communists are fully-rounded individuals, able to express themselves to the fullest.
>>220387806
>>220388848>performances from PAcino, Lemon, Baldwin, Helmsliterally every other word in this movie is gold, the whole scene with Pacino and Lemon trying to con that dude is all time
>>220386338This guy megacorps
i did 4.5 years in an office job and hated it.even if no one is a prick, there are tons of annoying yappy women, nigs, fags, etc.if lucky and all your coworkers are cool, then at least 1 client maybe an asshat, or the boss/manager
>>220387727I once drank chocolate milk during a big meeting and was struggling with all my might to stay awake. Most harrowing hour I ever spent, aside from a different meeting with CEO present where I had searing gas pain but couldn’t leave. Felt like I was sitting on a bomb. I was full of air from a flight, once I got to the toilet I was cracking thunderclaps. Nightmare
>>220387479Bullshit. The leads were weak
>HEY DUMMY! I'M MAD AT YOU TOO! WHY YOU GOTTA ACT OUT THAT WAYyeah shoot people if you can do that man whatever>>220386233it's tricky because jeets scam $20 in google play gift cards a day and Alec Baldwin scams $20,000 a day.
>>220390147>Alec Baldwin scams $20,000 a dayHe's just higher in the pyramid, him and the partners make money off of their sales while keeping the best leads for themselves.
>>220386233My bro in law is making $900,000 a year selling software. Selling a real product helps a lot and leads become less important since people want to talk to you
Boomers were just huge assholes all the time
>>220390373a guy on 4chan with a brother in law making a million a year in tech sales huh
