I need help with a Romance/comedy but I don't want to reveal too much of my idea, so I'll try and describe a similar movie you may have seen before:
The main character of my story is stuck in a menial job. However, the one enjoyment is that it takes him around town where he meets all sorts of weird and interesting customers. On one trip he meets a girl at a party. She starts to flirt with him and begs him to stay. But he says he can't and has to get back to the office. Over the next few days, he carries on working, but can't stop thinking about her.
The others in the office (who provide comic relief) say he'll never see this girl again and forget her. But one night on a delivery run, he meets her again. He parties with her at the party. He's very late and his boss is furious. He apologises. The next night he promises to go out with her, but realises he has to work.
Then he has the night from hell. Non-stop deliveries, nearly being kidnapped and beaten up. Will he make it through the night? Will he summon the courage to ditch the job and keep the girl?
I haven't mentioned the place of work or location where it's set, but that's pretty much the plot.
I'm not asking if it's unique, because's it's not.
But how would you write this? What kind of logline could you do?
