시즌 5, 에피소드 2: As a result of an exhaustive search, Dave has narrowed the field of highly qualified candidates to replace Bill. But a look through the rejects' resumes leads everyone else to settle on Max Louis -- an old friend of Bill's who hasn't been able to hold down a job for the past twenty years. And at the insistence of the staff, Dave consents to give Max a try. Meanwhile, Joe's efforts to protect their computers against the Millennium Bug causes the office's electronic devices to self-destruct. Having been fired so many times in the past has placed a heavy load on Max. Even though he is ready to move on before he can get started, Dave insists that, regardless of what happens, Max isn't about to be fired. Yet, once everyone gets a chance to meet him and they demand he be let go at once, Dave says they will now have to live with their choice and guarantees Max that his job is absolutely safe for the next two weeks. Upon learning that his employment is a sure thing for now, Max begins to display the kind of behavior that's led to him losing so many jobs before. Realizing his mistake, Dave doesn't hesitate to get Jimmy's permission to fire him. However, after the staff now balks at the idea, Dave is persuaded to give Max a chance after hearing his first broadcast -- and right before Joe's pre-Millennium Bug takes the station off the air.
