Quote from Dwight K. Schrute, (Acting) Manager

Jo: Dwight! Walk me out. Let's talk soon. And stay on top of these people. You gotta admit it, it's nice to have a little power, eh? How's it feel?
Dwight K. Schrute: Jo... I accidentally fired a gun in the office today.
Jo: What?!
Dwight K. Schrute: I am telling you this because I care too much about this job to be blackmailed into doing it poorly. All I've ever wanted was to be manager here. And if you feel that you cannot promote me over this one accident, I understand. But if you think that extortion is worse-
Jo: Shooting is worse! Are you kidding me? It's not even in the same- You shot a gun? What is wrong with you?
Dwight K. Schrute: It was a Beaumont-Adams, if that helps.
Jo: Beaumont-Adams is a girl's gun. That just makes it plain stupid.

Jo: Oh, hello, Mr. Scott. Pleased to meet you.
Michael Scott: Nice to meet you. We are very excited about the merger with Sabre. I think you have a great accent.
Jo: Aw, thank you. I've been working on it since I was a little girl. To, um, to what do I owe the pleasure of this video chat?
Michael Scott: Well, I am little concerned with all of these changes, to be quite frank. I think we have done things a certain way here at Dunder Mifflin for quite some time, and-
Jo: Pardon. Pardon me, Mr. Scott, but the last time I saw a company as mismanaged as Dunder Mifflin, it was my grandson's snowball company, so you'll excuse me if I prefer that you all adapt to the way that we do things.
