Michael Scott Quote #342
Quote from Michael Scott in The Carpet
Michael Scott: Well, somebody did something in my office and I now think that they did it on purpose and it was directed at me.
Ed Truck: Well, what was done?
Michael Scott: I didn't get a good look at it, but it smells horrible.
Ed Truck: Yeah, somebody once did that in my office.
Michael Scott: Really?
Ed Truck: Yeah.
Michael Scott: Well, that figures. So, how did you deal with people not liking you?
Ed Truck: You can't expect to be friends with everybody.
Michael Scott: Well, sure I can.
Ed Truck: No. They'll always think of you as a boss first.
Michael Scott: Not necessarily. You can love a boss like you do a father.
Ed Truck: I'm not sure that ever happens.
Michael Scott: Well, okay. Different management styles.
Ed Trucky: Why can't your workers be your workers, family be your family, your friends be your friends?

Quote from Michael Scott
Michael Scott: Last week I would have given a kidney to anyone in this office. I would've reached right into my stomach and pulled it out for them. But now, no. I don't have the relationship with these people that I thought I did. I hope they ask, so they can hear me say, "Uh... No. I only give my organs to my real friends. Go get yourself a monkey kidney."
Quote from Pam

Quote from Michael Scott
Michael Scott: Why would somebody ruin a perfectly good carpet? I don't know. It could be done out of hate. It could be done out of love. It could be completely neutral. Maybe somebody hates the cleaning lady. And, well, she doesn't do a very good job, obviously, because my office still reeks like you would not believe. I hate her.
