This U.S. adaptation -- set at a paper company based in Scranton, Pa. -- has a similar documentary style to that of the Ricky Gervais-led British original. It features the Dunder-Mifflin staff, which includes characters based on roles in the British show -- and, quite possibly, people with whom you work in your office. There's Jim, the likable employee who's a bit of an every man. Jim has a thing for receptionist-turned-sales-rep Pam -- because office romances are always a good idea! There's also Dwight, the co-worker who is successful but devoid of social skills and common sense.

Someone made a huge mess in the microwave and refuses to clean it up; Michael must come to terms with the personnel changes in his staff.

After he has an accident while using a grill, injured Michael demands attention from the entire Dunder Mifflin office.

Because Jim fears Michael will tell the others he likes Pam, he pretends to be Michael's best friend.

When someone stains the carpet in Michael's office, he begins to question his popularity among his staff.
