The movie is definitely inspired by Clerks, but it's different enough that it stands on its own. The cast has a lot more employees with far differing personalities and the situations they find themselves in aren't terribly similar.
So many stories, so little time.

I don't appreciate your ruse ma'am.

Brilliant. This movie is on right now and I came her to make the same point. Don't know if I would say it's a rip off. Maybe just a loving homage. No one can deny that it's heavily inspired by clerks though.

Yeah, even though I enjoyed
Waiting
, the fact it's extremely close to
Clerks
stylistically and story-wise always really threw me off and are kind of distracting. (Hell, they even have overt surrogates for Jay and Silent Bob with Nick and T-Dogg)
And FURTHERMORE, this is my signature! SERIOUSLY! Did you think I was still talking about my point?

Both Clerks movies are way. way better.

Clerks is just a classic. It wins by a mile. But this is still a great movie and definitely original enough to not be considered a ripoff.

It is an interesting debate but Clerks wins by a nose IMO

Its a really good parallel and I think I like Waiting just a little bit more.
Sorry Brother.

The writer/director actually specifically thanks Kevin Smith in the end credits

Actually the poster is right. In many ways Clerks started a trend some 20 years ago. People that worked in menial jobs in their youth but would become film directors when they got older deciding to do a movie about that job they once had. Waiting and Adventureland come to mind. I'm sure there's more.

What does Clerks have to with Waiting? A convienence store and a restaurant?
