17 Reasons We're Still Not Over the Office
stuffpoint.com

hat Netflix binges have come and gone. We've laughed and cried and learned to love the characters of more series than you care to count. And while there are many shows that we truly love, none of them really compare to the brilliance of The Office. We find ourselves revisiting it every now and again, reliving the hijinks and the heartbreak and the hilarity every time as if it was the first. We're still not over The Office. And here's why.

1. The Office taught us lessons that school simply never could. Like how to declare bankruptcy, for example.


2. It showed us what true love looked like.


3. ...In all its forms.


4. It helped us stay up to date with pop culture.


5. It always reminded us to know our own worth.


6. It taught us that our schooling doesn't define our legacy.


7. And it reminded us of the most important things in life.


8. The Office just seemed to understand us in a way no other show has.


9. It motivated us to achieve our fitness goals.


10. It presented to us with our life mantra in any kind of tense situation.


11. It reminded us that sometimes, we just need to dance.


12. It taught us to focus on our talents.


13. It taught us that anyone can be a poet.


14. And it kept us up to date on the coolest, hippest jargon.


15. It perfectly summed up the millennial dating experience.


16. It exposed us to the most classic prank of all time.


17. Most of all, it showed us that there's a lot of beauty in ordinary things, and that's kind of the point.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
