Aw, thanks, everyone! This made my month.

In all fairness to my boss, he’s not entirely like Michael. He’s actually incredibly competent at his job. And he’s a super nice guy that I consider a friend. He’s just…well. You read the stories.

Once I get the DVDs, I’ll have a viewing party…anyone who lives near me is welcome to come!

Congrats to Andrea, but I gotta admit (chiming in late, admittedly), that I think JB had it a lot worse.

Congrats to everyone. It would be nice to see the final results…even if it’s on a percentage basis. Please?

Wow I was in the top 10!!

I’ve been sick for the past week and didn’t even get to vote. Feels good to have an idiot boss after all…good job everyone!!

And Andrea…you poor thing…your psychological damage is far worse than my physical abuse…well deserved!!

Yay! I’m excited to make the cut. I agree that my boss being gross and dirty isn’t very Michael-esque, but I just couldn’t keep that to myself (=.

Thanks for letting me share him with you! What a fun contest.

While I would kill myself if I worked for Brandi’s boss, I have to hand my single vote to Andrea…it sounds like a script for an upcoming episode. Between the jaundice and the Baywatch reference, I don’t think we can get much more Michael Scott.

This is SUCH a hard pick!!! I really did not beleive that there were bosses out there like MIchael Scott, boy was I wrong!! Thank goodness I work with somewhat NORMAL people! Even tho my day would be a lot more interesting if I worked with someone like Michael Scott!!

I have to say…I laughed out loud (in my office) when I read “You look jaundiced”. Oh my my.

Andrea – you should be a consultant for the show. “You look jaundiced” wow. just wow.

My favorite is Bozagaz’s – quite the story and what a writer!

Woah! Andrea, that sounds like it actually came straight out of The Office!!

I voted for Brandi. “Quotation marks don’t mean what you think they mean.” Heheh. Too funny.

While I was hoping my tale of Michael Scott-like horrendousness would be a finalist (trust me, I could have used it…I’m still working for the guy), I’ve got to say these stories are great, and any one of them is a deserving winner. I voted for Angelo because I just had the clearest picture of Michael saying that to Oscar!!

Andrea’s boss is so much like Michael Scott, he could be a tracing. Andrea gets my vote.

Oh, JB! Poor thing. Sounds more like a Todd Packer!

hannah — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 19:30:52 +0000

that was actually relatively easy…all i had to do was look at andrea’s a 2nd time. hers was utterly perfect!

the others that i thought came close were #s 5, 9, and 10. (though the one with the dirty shirt could never happen to michael-he always comes to work looking as close to perfect as possible!)

I feel so bad for you all. Especially JB. It’s a tough call but I have to give it to Andrea. A replica of the Office.
