Any time someone asks me for a report I just tell them to open a ticket in the backlog then I simply don't pick it up due to "other priorities" until they stop caring about the report
>>220493167Pam and Jim were the worst. A lot of people hate Andy more but at least Andy got punished for being a piece of shit. Jim and Pam keep getting away with being shit human beings.
>>220493167He's a new boss and a rundown is very general.When he did what he thought a rundown was Charles simply told him it wasn't it.Jim was an idiot for not asking Charles exactly what he wanted.
>>220493578I'm thinking that he was prepping to fire Jim. Most places will ask you what your current work load is and before you know it security is pushing you out the door. Given that Charles disliked Jim, I'm pretty sure thats where it was going.
>>220493303Charles was the most realistic and grounded person on the show
>>220493674I don't watch tv but that's possible if not probable, it's a catch 22 though>Show me how to do your job>You don't show them; they fire you for being a dumb fuck/lazy>You do show them; they fire you because now they can replace you
The writers had no idea how to properly create scenarios for Jim to be awkward or vulnerable. They'd randomly have everyone make fun of him or hate him and then forget about it the next episode. The juxtaposition between the Jim we see 99% of the time and those weird moments is very off-putting. He'd go from a pretty competent guy to immediately being useless and retarded just for the sake of it. It's nowhere near as bad as what they did to Andy, but it stands out the handful of times throughout the series.
>>220494967he was a useless kiss ass
>>220493167Jim was being deliberately obtuse. Charles had made him feel inferior and he was attempting to take back some power by mocking him to the cameras.
