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.
Dwight's devotion to Michael is tested; Andy tries to fulfill Jim's emotional needs.
Michael's new company has a hard time making early-morning deliveries; the office struggles to get expense reports in on time when Angela enforces the company policy.
Michael must settle a dispute within the sales team; employees cause trouble when they take the term "casual" Friday too loosely.
Michael brings dancing and coffee to the office; Jim and Pam plan a secret trip.
