EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH
SYNOPSIS
Employee of the Month is set in Super Club, the
largest high-volume, bulk-discount retailer in the
country, where membership has its privileges. For
workers at the cavernous store, the most coveted
honor is the "Employee of the Month" award, and
having one's photo immortalized on the wall of fame
in the staff lounge.
Enter Zack Bradley (Dane Cook) and Vince Downey
(Dax Shepard), two ultra competitive Super Club
workers whose ten years of employment have
resulted in drastically different career paths. While
Vince – with the aid of his trusty sidekick, Jorge
(Efren Ramirez) -- has advanced to become head
cashier and winner of 17 consecutive "E of M"
awards, Zack is the ultimate slacker whose scruffy
appearance and laid back attitude has made him
popular with his colleagues, but kept him stuck in
the lowly ranks of the store's box boys. The duo's
longtime rivalry comes to a bitter head when Amy
(Jessica Simpson) – a beautiful new cashier with a
reputation of only dating "Employee of the Month"
winners – transfers to the store, immediately
becoming the object of both Zack and Vince's
affection and often comical gamesmanship.

While Vince instantly impresses Amy with his crowd pleasing, flamboyant style behind his checkstand
register, Zack's feeble attempts to charm his beautiful new co-worker quickly backfire against him. With
the race to win Amy's affections slipping away, Zack determines his only chance rests in winning the
store's next "Employee of the Month" award. A battle to the end, EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH shows that
the only failure in life is when one fails to try.
