Show of hands, who's done the comparison of who is who in their work unit vs "The Office" tv show?

No, that’s tough to do around my office. I’ve definitely done it at some of my customer sites, though; <s>i’ve had the pleasure</s> of basically working under a real life Dwight.

*raises hand*  I want to be Pam in our group, but I think I might be Meredith.   :40oz:

I've never seen The Office

 

[RBHeadge PE]

I was the Toby/Gabe at my old job. I'm somewhere between Dwight and Stanley at this one.

FR? Fire Retardant? 

My company (at least my office) is kind of the opposite. We have everything we need (thankfully!), but then marketing asks us to wear/use more branded stuff... Which they'll gladly sell to us at full price.  :blink2:

They treat us well. It's the things they chose to pay for vs what they won't pay for that blows my mind.

don't lean on your elbows

I'm not since it's one of those Varidesk things and it'd fall over if I leaned on it.

It isn't tall enough for me so messes up my elbow/shoulder

skip season 1 and start with season 2.

I've only watched it once.

Isn't that always the case?

It was VERY pronounced with this company.

I bet it felt awesome and liberating when you left for a serious employer?

It was bittersweet. My direct supervisors were pretty cool, and I kind of left one of them out to dry before she left on maternity leave*, which sucked.

However, leaving upper management to lie in the bed they'd made was precisely as you described.

* - Yeah right, this company didn't give her maternity leave. She just took all the vacation, sick leave, and FMLA leave she could get her hands on.

In terms of eccentricities or megalomania? The former is okay, the latter is not.

The latter, unfortunately.

I do my best to be a combination of Stanley and Ron Swanson, from Parks and Rec.

I wish I could grow that sweet of 'stache. I'm rocking the full beard, at the moment.

I can’t really grow a mustache either. So I just accept the fact that I look Amish and move on.

I can grow one, but I look like a straight-up ********* without additional facial hair to pair it with.
