Office Space was released in 1999, at the peak of the dot-com bubble. So, of course office jobs (particularly software jobs) would decrease when that bubble popped.

But it's not as a result of that movie.

The specific claim made was a spike in voluntary resignations, which should be distinguishable from any bubble popping effect.
