For all the verbal fellatio Office Space receives I was expecting it to be a god-like ultimate peak of human culture type deal but in reality it was a mid movie humor and plot wise. Its not bad but its very catery to a specific audience I wasn't part of. I can see it being one of the first and few relatable films for white collar cubicle boglins at the turn of the century which feels like pretty much the sole reason of why I have to see it occasionally referenced 25 years later.
You're right that it's one of the few relatable films about that, but what gives it the staying power is that it is still relevant for the sort of work they're doing. All of the things they talk about are the same 25 years later, except now they don't know I'm not wearing pants since it's on Zoom. Silicon Valley is in the same vein, and created by the same guy. I expect him to make "Home Office Space" shortly.
