As a commecial broker, who’s been in Real Estate for life since childhood - when I wasn’t working for fed.gov - Glengarry Glen Ross was very real. Lots of Alec Baldwins in offices, when the MLS was a dot matrix printout. Produce or lose your desk.
Gotta wonder what Spacey did with all those millions.
Alec Baldwin pretty much played himself in that scene.
Yeah, I worked in a telephone sales boiler room in the late 70s early 80s. Trane Air Conditioning in South El Monte. It was a crazy place to work. Pot heads, druggies, easy girls, even the drummer from the group Love worked their going door to door.....Alban Snoopy Pfisterer. He was a true hippie and we played tennis a couple of times in Arcadia CA.
We had the Ricky Roma prima donna, the slumps when we couldn’t get a “lead”.....the manager was abused cussed at, threatened.....just like Spacey was. I couldn’t believe it when I watched that movie..I lived it. Made good money though......
