Thanks for all the kind words! I have been crazy busy at work, so I apologize for not taking the time to respond individually. But I do really, really appreciate people taking the time to do reviews. It totally made my day!

This is excellent. You've really captured the liight animosity that I sense on the show b/w Ryan and Jim- the way Ryan notices Jim mugging for non-existent cameras, the way Jim congratulates Ryan w/out actually doing so, etc.
"Now he would be her boss. Amazingly, as he looked around the office, he realized all of these people would be his underlings. Except Toby. For some reason, the thought of Toby was suddenly drawing a little ire he had not expected, but he decided not to question it. "
Heeeee. I think hating HR is just a part of being upper management- both Michael and David Wallace seem to think so.
Great job, can't wait to read more!

I'm glad I read this! The Jim/Ryan relationship is interesting and there's definitely a lot to explore. They could be friends, but there's some sort of weird tension that's preventing it. I really liked this line:
Jim really probably could sell an Eskimo an air-conditioner, especially if said Eskimo were a female. Ryan had a feeling he couldn't sell an Eskimo a husky.
Can't wait to see what else you have in store!

Oh, this definitely has potential. It'll be interesting to read how exactly Ryan fares as Michael's boss. I know it'd scare me just a little, heh. But great first effort, I can't wait to read more!

Oh you definitely have something! I can't wait to see where you take this. And I loved Jim mugging for the cameras that were already gone! Nice job!
