For those who have seen The Office, you already know who the world’s best boss is; it’s Michael Scott! But I believe he’d be number one in many different positions, most especially as a best friend.

1. He loves fiercely.

Michael feels things that happen to you just as strongly as you do; your happiness is his. If anyone ever tried to cross you, I can guarantee that Michael would be there to protect you. Your enemies would be his enemies. He would let them know it and make their life a living hell.

2. He will make you laugh.

Michael is a firm believer in making sure everyone always has fun, and with fun comes laughter. He’s always cracking jokes in the office, so can you imagine the fun and joy he would bring into your life outside of work?

3. He’s dependable.

When you need him, he will be there. You could call Michael up at any time in the day and he would be right there to be by your side. If you need support, he will be the entire support system and then some. He believes in people even when they’ve given him 150 reasons to run away.

4. He handles problems with such grace.

Screaming “I declare bankruptcy!” may not seem like a good way to deal with problems, but for Michael, it is. Just let it all out; scream.

5. He will sit on the couch and eat junk food with you forever.

Michael is a firm believer in doing whatever he wants when he wants it. He doesn’t believe in workouts, but he does believe in ice cream for breakfast. He would definitely eat those two pies of pizza with you.

6. He’s inspiring (sometimes).

Michael has the power to be extremely inspiring because of all of his wonderful qualities. He doesn’t usually realize he’s making a difference, but with his big heart and bright eyes, he impacts the people around him.

7. He will always bring that element of surprise into your day.

Whether it be hitting you with his car or threatening to jump off a roof, you will never live a normal day again. Michael knows no boundaries, and does outrageous things in order to get what he wants. Such behavior makes for a really interesting life.

8. He's resourceful and can teach you about conservation.

9) His advice is impeccable and will allow you to sail smoothly through life.

He’s lived a life just a little bit longer than you and ran, for many years, the best branch of Dunder Mifflin. He knows what he’s talking about (even though he really may not). It all works out.

10) He will always root for you.

He will love you and never leave your side, no matter the distance.
