Marjorie! :). I only think of her rarely. Basically whenever someone else mentions her or you see that fleeting shot of her or her desk. Although, I bet you could practically get away with saying you own Marjorie, because NBC pretty much doesn't seem to want to own her.

This was suc a cool little Marjorie fic on the JAM season two, and so good. :)

So what exactly DOES Marjorie do? Besides just taking care of Michael's emails... although that could be a full time job....

Author's Response: I guess my joke was that her full time job is making sure Michael doesn't get too out of hand. Don't look too closely: it isn't exactly an air-tight theory. Thanks for reading!

That was great.  And I have to admit, even though I've seen every episode of The Office (most several times), I had no idea who Marjorie was until I read the reviews.  Just goes to show I have tunnel vision when I watch.  :)

Author's Response: I guess not everyone is obsessed as I am. Hee. Thanks for reading, invis!

So glad you've come out of retirement! And what a great premise - writing from her pov is so fresh, but she's still 'canon.' Too clever. Could really imagine Jim seeking her advice - his reaction to what she tells him was so sweet and v. Jim too (I  understood it as a callback to Mama Beesly's 'Which one is Jim,' when he also gets that slow happy-dance grin of recognition.) And great way to end, tying her back into the Office madness, even though she's a quasi-outsider - this line just screams something Michael would come up with: something that could ostensibly be from The Discovery Channel, if only it weren’t X-rated.

Just delightful, beginning to end. 

I love the idea that the other employees wouldn't sign the waivers- think of all the stupid seminars, parties, etc. that Marjorie has missed!

Author's Response: I can't claim credit for the waiver brainwave. That was all Treble! Thanks for reading, though, lis.

I must be out of my element here, because I was totally lost. I mean, it's a well written little vignette you've got here, but who's Marjorie? 

Author's Response: And you call yourself a fan. ;) Marjorie is a little seen, rarely mentioned gray haired lady who works back in the annex beyond the kitchen. You can catch her in Office Olympics and she gets name checked in The Fire.

Can I get a collective 'awww'? Now, does Jim's mom know all about Pam, or does Pam's mom know all about Jim?

I think I saw Marjorie in Office Olympics, too.  One of the great unsolved mysteries of The Office.  Yeah, she needs her own tag at MTT.

Heh! Oh, Marjorie. This kind of makes me wish there was more Marjorie-fic, although your explanation for her consistent absence is the best possible one, I think. My first instinct was that it still wouldn't work, because for her to avoid the cameras she'd have to miss so many meetings, etc, but then it occurred to me that we haven't seen too many (any) meetings that would probably actually be relevant to her work. As long as she doesn't mind missing out on the social aspect (aw, Secret Santa, birthday parties, creepy photo-shopped group photos), she could probably go on functioning in her job just fine!

Gosh, can you imagine if there was some huge Jim/Pam moment but Marjorie walked into the frame and they had to stop filming? The cameramen: "Damnit, Marjorie!!! I hate so much about the things that you choose to be."  Now my brain is running wild with all sorts of Marjorie ideas - she is definitely underused!
