Stuck (I) (2007)

Patrick McKenna: Joe Lieber

Quotes 

• Joe Lieber : Take a seat.

  Thomas Bardo : Hi. I'm Thomas Bardo. Sorry about the clothes.

  Joe Lieber : And how do you spell your name?

  Thomas Bardo : B-A-R-D-O. Yeah, you'll probably see that I was a project manager. Very challenging job, but my company decided to downsize just before my benefits kicked in. You know how that is. Then the unemployment ran out. I thought I might have better luck in the city, but... you know how that goes.

  Joe Lieber : You know, I can't seem to find you in the computer.

  Thomas Bardo : Oh?

  Joe Lieber : All right.

  [He opens a drawer and takes out a form] 

  Joe Lieber : You take that, fill it out, and mail it in.

  Thomas Bardo : Uh, I've already filled this out.

  Joe Lieber : Well, you can't be in the computer until you fill it out and mail it in.

  Thomas Bardo : But I've already mailed this in. That's how I got the appointment.

  Joe Lieber : Well, you can't have an appointment until you're in the computer.

  Thomas Bardo : But I have an appointment. It was at one, and I've been waiting for three and a half hours.

  Joe Lieber : But you're not in the computer.

  Thomas Bardo : But...

  Joe Lieber : You're not in the computer. So, you fill out the 976, you mail it in to me, and I will make sure you get an appointment.

  Thomas Bardo : Look, Mr. Lieber, this hasn't been a good day for me, you know. Can't you just take my word that I've already sent this in? Or put me in now, and...

  Joe Lieber : Sir, look, um, if you're willing to follow procedures, we can work with you. If not... it's your choice.

  Thomas Bardo : [Thomas sighs in defeat]  Well, I guess I'd better fill this out, huh?

  Joe Lieber : That's the procedure.
