The Office
A fly-on-the-wall docu-reality parody about modern American office life, The Office delves into the lives of the workers at Dunder Mifflin paper supply company in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
Regional
manager Michael Scott is a single, middle-aged man who is the
boastful tour guide for the documentary. With unshaken enthusiasm,
Michael believes he is the office funnyman, a fountain of business
wisdom and his employees’ cool friend. He has no clue that his employees
tolerate his inappropriate behavior only because he signs their
paychecks. Painstakingly trying to be liked and look cool, Michael
comes off alternately absurd and pathetic.
His prize possession is his “World’s Greatest Boss” mug which he had to buy for himself.
