Quote from Jim in Dwight K. Schrute, (Acting) Manager

Dwight K. Schrute: Listen, I'm a very busy man. Let's get right down to business.
Jim: Okay.
Dwight K. Schrute: Jo is coming later today. I cannot have a subordinate trying to make me look stupid. Okay? I need you to promise me that you'll be on your best behavior.
Jim: I promised other people that I would be on my worst behavior. And I gave them my word, so...
Dwight K. Schrute: Don't make me fire you.
Jim: You can't fire me. You're acting manager. Not office manager. So you have no firing powers.
Dwight K. Schrute: Don't make me pre-fire you.
Jim: You wouldn't dare.
Dwight K. Schrute: Watch this. You're pre-fired. And when I'm promoted, you'll be full fired.
Jim: [quietly] If you get promoted, and if you haven't fallen in love with me by then.
Dwight K. Schrute: What?

Jim: If I had thought that there was a real chance that Dwight would be permanent manager, I would have pre-quit. And you might be saying to yourself, "Well that's pretty premature to think," but I always say, it's better to be pre-pre-preprepared.
