About this Quote

In this quote, Giovanni Ribisi is explaining a situation where he and somebody else went to a place that he describes as a "legitimate boiler space."

Ribisi then goes on to explain that he sat in front of a man who was multitasking by talking on the phone with two individuals at the very same time.
