Sure, Michael Scott gets a lot of grief for being ignorant sometimes, but through further investigation and my unending love for this show, I've concluded that he'd actually be a pretty darn fun boss to have in the real world.

Although it hangs by a thread, somehow the company manages to stay afloat...maybe because of Michael Scott or maybe in spite of him, but I like to think that it's because in some crazy unconventional way, his tactics are effective. And even though he’s sarcastic, rude, and down right dumb sometimes, his employees did love him till the end.

Michael Scott is probably the best boss that NBC has seen and anyone would be lucky to work under his command. Sure, he's probably irritating, but at the end of the day, he makes the boring office an extremely entertaining place. If you haven't witnessed him in all his glory, I highly suggest that "The Office" be next up on your Netflix binge-watching queue.
