Spoilers ahead
For years, Zack Bradley (Dane Cook) has toiled away as a box-boy at the local Super Club, sharing his living space with his grandmother. During his downtime, he enjoys hanging out with his co-workers, including the quirky Lon Neilson (Andy Dick), the wise Iqbal Raji (Brian George), and the eccentric Russell Porpis-Gunders (Harland Williams). Although Zack often embodies the quintessential “slacker,” he possesses a benevolent heart, earning him popularity among his peers. The reigning king of the workplace, Vince Downey (Dax Shepard), claims the title of Employee of the Month for the 17th consecutive time. Vince is not only arrogant but often degrades his co-workers, particularly Jorge Mecico (Efren Ramirez), whom he relentlessly belittles.
