“Pam and I have hurt a lot of people, but mostly we’ve hurt each other. There’s no coming back from that.”Five day-breaks that shaped Jan's life, from pre-series to post-S4. Spoilers up to Goodbye, Toby.

Pam moved to New York instead of starting work at Dunder Mifflin. Years later she returns and she meets Jim, but they're at very different points in their lives.Two days after the Booze Cruise...what might've happened if Jim had confessed sooner.With every choice we don't make, we create a universe...
WARNING: This is like, angst, to the tenth power, but I can promise a happy ending, if not exactly the one you might have in mind...
