Michael Scott
The Office

This walking HR time bomb at Dunder Mifflin is a lovable idiot. He is proof of the Peter Principle (look it up). He has basically zero managerial skills but makes up for it with his “can do” attitude. He somehow out performs every other branch of Dunder Mifflin, despite his lack of business savvy. He is fair, energetic and says what is on his mind.

Michael cares for his employees, sometimes in a backward fashion with overt racism (remember the episode where people characterize stereotypes?), but he does it lightheartedly. Although he thinks he is more important than he really is, his heart is in the right place and his coworkers generally like him. Michael is often the basis of jokes, the workers enjoy having him and have grown to enjoy and appreciate his intentions, however muddled they are with his ego. I’d take a job at Dunder Mifflin any day with Michael at the helm, and the shower really never recovered to its glory once he left.

Boss Rating: A+

I specialize in damage control, being the drunkest at any and all functions and social assassination. Always appreciate a strong gif game. Follow me on Twitter. Sometimes I put up cool stuff about golfing at the local dirt tracks.
