Plot Summary for
Clockwatchers (1997) More at IMDbPro »

Iris can best be described as a wallflower. She begins her first day as a temp for the nondescript Global Credit Association by waiting in a chair for two hours. This sets the scene for her (mis)adventures with the other "corporate orphans", Margaret, Paula and Jane. Led by Margaret, they find subtle ways to lessen the ennui of corporate oppression. The tension escalates when the new permanent hire, Cleo, enters the picture. Written by Vanessa Exum <vexum@mail.utexas.edu>

Iris is a lonely insecure temp beginning another short-term job for a credit company. She soon meets Margaret, another temp who shows her the ropes and introduces her to fellow temps Paula and Jane. The group becomes fast friends, meeting for drinks after work and looking for guys. All is changed when a new girl is hired and a series of office thefts occur pitting them against the full timers and one another. Written by Losman <losman@express-news.net>


Plot Synopsis:
Four very different women are drawn together as outcast temps in an unfriendly, and boring workplace. See more (warning! contains spoilers) »
