Thank you @mattgierhart for introducing me to Scotty Iseri. I am only sad that I am coming upon his video series, Scotty Got an Office Job (SGAOJ), after this fateful meeting with his boss:
Scotty’s boss, who could easily be Mad Money’s James Cramer, discovered his videos on Laughing Squid, and the rest is history.
Pay close attention to the boss’s use of the word “bing” in past tense. Scotty told him to use “bing” in place of “google (verb form)” to sound more cutting edge. Solid gold!
Has anyone else worked with someone like Scotty? The kind of guy who should have been fired twenty times over but always seemed to dodge the bullet…and then actually got a raise. If they weren’t so likable you would probably hate them.
Good luck in your next endeavor, Scotty, and thank you for the laughs.

Really? Fake? Pathetic?
I couldn’t disagree more. I don’t think it is brilliant, but it is funny. Go back and watch the series, they were fun. I started watching when one got spread around. It was entertaining and I could relate as I had a boring job once and we came up with all kinds of online entertainments for us. They just weren’t this successful and I QUIT!!!
But def not fake and I don’t know what you mean by pathetic? Unless you are referring to the slaps, they look like they hurt!!!

@Matt – You are absolutely right, this is a very legitimate conversation that quickly erodes into “you’re fired, fired, fired!”.
Though, regarding it’s brilliance I have to disagree. I ended up watching about 20 of these episodes last night and some of them are indeed brilliant. The kung fu fight with the soda machine is pure comic genius.
Thanks again, Matt, for introducing me to Scotty!
