Never would I have ever thought I would be working with quite the character. With in just a few days, I was able to configure who he reminded me of. I kept it to myself for a while until asking a friend and another co-worker, and they both thought the same thing. I knew I was not making this up, what I observed was a true fact.

Funny thing is, I asked my co-worker once if he watched "The Office." His response was an enthusiastic yes, so then I proceeded to ask what characters he relates himself to. He got the Dwight part right, but failed to relate himself to the most comical character, Michael Scott. When I told him that he reminded me of Michael Scott, he was a bit taken back, but when I explained my reasoning it was understandable. Though, for some reason he likes to think of himself as Jim because he is the likable main character, but I do not see it at all.

Here is how my co-worker is perfectly blended mix of Michael Scott/ Dwight Schrute:

1. Loyalty: Dwight’s loyalty to Michael is unreal; my co-workers loyalty to his boss and company is unreal. He does not just go the extra mile, but instead he goes for the marathon.
2. FWD E-mails: Michael is known to always be forwarding e-mails; my inbox is largely comprised of FWD e-mails.
3. Unpredictable extreme reactions: We have seen Michael’s reactions go from a blank expression to a yelling rage. I can predict that the day will be unpredictable, but I cannot predict when my co-worker will be chill/ or have a hissy fit.
4. Jokes: Michael thinks his jokes are hilarious, yet no one else does. It is a painful thing to have to experience everyday. Funny thing is, it is the things that happen at work I find funny, and not the jokes.
5. Right-hand: Dwight can always be found right next to Michael ready for to take on what they think is “mission impossible”. You can always find my co-worker ready to take on a task like he is saving the world.
6. Phone-calls: Michael is always found laughing hysterically on the phone for no good reason. My co-worker can be found laughing at someone saying hello, I swear I am not making this up, I know because I am on some of the same calls.
