What Your Favorite Character From ‘The Office’ Says About You
The Office isn’t exactly known for having relatable scenes; in fact, we love it because of just how bizarre and out there it is.
But that doesn’t mean there aren’t some truths to be revealed by examining what your favorite Office character says about you.
The employees of the Dunder Mifflin Scranton office gave us many iconic moments throughout the 9 seasons of The Office, and these 18 characters have been right at the center of all the chaos.
From secret office romances to faking deaths and playing pranks, each day at Dunder Mifflin is as wacky as the next.
Here’s what your favorite character says about how you navigate career, friendship, love, and everything in between.
Ryan Howard
You’re an intellectual who loves honest, insightful conversation. You aren’t one to mess around when it comes to your career.
Just like when Ryan ruthlessly dumped Kelly in order to accept his promotion in the New York office, you will always strive for success, even if it means stepping over people to get to the top.
Be careful that your harsh tendencies don’t come back to bite you, or you may just lose it all and end up working in a bowling alley.
Darryl Philbin
Like Ryan, you’re ambitious and hardworking. Unlike Ryan, you’re willing to use honest means to get to the top.
You’re quietly confident and don’t need others to give you credit in order for you to feel validated.
Darryl started out as a warehouse worker in Dunder-Mifflin before working his way up to the office and eventually leaving to become a VP at Athlead with Jim. You also use your imagination and determination to achieve success, but you always make sure to laugh and have a good time while doing it.
Dwight Schrute
You’re logical and serious when it comes to most aspects of life.
Not one to cut corners, you appreciate rules and just want others to do the same. You don’t want to mess around by throwing birthday parties at work or having movie days.
Outside of work, you’re always finding other ways to advance yourself and make more money.
Between Schrute Farms and Dwight Schrute’s Gym For Muscles, you keep yourself pretty busy, but you still have time for a lowkey, secret romance here and there.
Angela Martin
Speaking of secret romances, fans of Angela aren’t afraid to make deep, intense connections with the people closest to them (ahem, Dwight). That’s because you’re serious and want to find true meaning in your life.
You like rules and hate to waste time. You have strong integrity and will cut off everyone who breaches the rules you set.
Just like when Angela dumps Dwight for lying about accidentally killing her cat, you’ll gladly send anyone who crosses you a notarized letter, terminating your relationship.
Michael Scott
You’re extroverted and not afraid of trying new things, even if they’re things you know nothing about.
Like Regional Manager Michael, you have a desire to lead and want to command respect from others, though sometimes you’re not exactly deserving of this respect.
Others may get frustrated with you since you’re not exactly in tune with their emotions. Maybe tone down the “that’s what she said” jokes and petty jabs.
Oscar Martinez
You just want to get through life as simply as possible without running into trouble. You have the answer to everything.
Like Oscar, you’re usually always right, even if no one will give you credit for it. Often, you’re better off alone, working quietly and efficiently without any interruptions.
You aren’t one who likes to be the center of attention, nor do you care to have all eyes on you. You’re happy and confident within yourself, and don’t need others in order to feel validated.
