Ryan Bingham is the Organization Man for the 2000s. He never comes to the office. Technically, he doesn t have an office, he has an address where his employer has an office. His life is devoted to visiting other people s offices, and firing them. “Up in the Air” takes the trust people once had in their jobs and pulls out the rug. It is a film for this time.
Bingham describes himself as a Termination Facilitator. He fires people for a living. When corporations need to downsize quickly but hate the mess, he flies in and breaks the news to the new former employees. In hard times, his business is great.
