Faced with massive job cuts, the workers of Inotech are on edge. Even the copy machine stops working. Sadly the copy machine meets its demise in Michael Bolton (David Herman).After going to a therapist with his girlfriend, Peter takes a deep breath, and simply doesn't care anymore. He sleeps till noon and walks in late on a daily basis. Peter, Michael Bolton, and Samir voice their anger, complaints and hassles from their job during lunch. While at lunch he meets the lovely Jennifer Anniston at a TGIF type of restaurant during his lunch break. The company hires the 2 Bobs which weed out the dead wood within the office. Many are let go. Bob Slydell (John C. McGinley) comes upon Peter's file and meet with him. Peter tells it like it is even without thinking he could be fired. The Bobs love him and even tell Lumbergh to promote him.All in all Peter, Michael Bolton, and Samir, who all are fed up with the company, cook up a scheme to embezzle company funds and pocket it; to get even.
