One of those cases where they had to tone down reality so people would believe it, but still came across as unrealistic!
Quite the opposite.
The Three Comma Guy, Gavin Belson, the Conjoined Triangles of Success... Been through all that.
In Office Space there is the «pieces of flair» argument with the waitress (Aniston), it’s much more bitter, and I suspect much harder to keep it funny, because in truth those worker endured much more violent management, there is little space to spin it in a funny way.

When I was an early IT manager my team would make fun of me and compare me to the manager from office space... because I would always say "thanks" when I would ask them for something...
But I learned to say "thanks" because at Intel - in the 90's it was company culture to always close an email with "thanks"
When I worked at FB though it was a hostile environment. so no Thanks.
what? no one got beat over flair, and having worked in a lot of serving jobs, the level of violence serving drinks was roughly on par with the number of fights I've seen in the data center.
Living in Richardson explains Beavis and KotH.
It does mention he worked for a military contractor, which probably provided an accelerated environment for learning corporate bs.
Hilarious, yet the way corporate PR is heading it could be real and none would be the wiser.

Zuckerberg is clearly the responsible for the failures of Facebook.
You can’t have both.
Why not? Nothing you wrote suggests that we cannot have both. In fact, Musk bought Tesla, is not an engineer, has no engineering training or education or engineering accomplishments (the code he was writing for the company that became PayPal was notoriously terrible and had to be scrapped). Say what you want about Zuck, but if you plopped him down at a terminal and made him do the job of one of his own senior Devs I bet he would be able to do it. Musk couldn't do the same for any one of his companies in any of the technical positions.
I find it interesting that someone states something like 'you can't it both ways' without thinking it through and while presenting no reasoning for it, and then just leave it there like it is now a rule we must accept.
You should probably fact check this statement. There are plenty of people on quora or even here who worked with Musk. You are completely wrong on this.
