Great story! The talking heads were fantastic.

This was just delightful. Really. I enjoyed every bit of it, start to finish. The drill sergeant who loves the cooking network, the perfect talking head parts, the whole Jim and Pam dynamic. I'm gonna go read it again.

I know I'm late to the party, but I wanted to let you know that I had a lot of fun reading this story. There were so many classic lines in here, but I think my absolute favorite was Dwight offering to dispose of the squirrel with his handy slingshot - just such great timing there! And of course now I'm thinking about Jim in uniform and I won't be able to concentrate on anything else for the rest of the day...so thanks!

when all is said and done, michael really is great at customer service (i.e. business deals over awesome blossoms). where would the office team be without his "leadership"? bored and unmotivated? lackluster in their adventures and inspirations? the final paragraph was a cute touch. chapter 8 was my favorite :)

Yet another story I started and then abdononded... I believe this was probably during when I had the whole finals suck, but I gotta study for them and such.... but, now I get to read the last chapter. So yay for that.
Okay, Dwight won't eat off of the spoons, but he does clean his ears with them? First off, either he has unbelievably wide ear canals, or those are some SMALL spoons. Me, I have to use the syringes. Which I got for FREE (suck on that Dwight). Cause my ear canals are unusually small. So, is that more than you ever wanted to know about me?
What brand of cat? Haha!
Great story. :D

Oh, love it! Excellent resolution to the triangle situation (I love it when Karen's mature and kind about it) and I love that little ending with the Sergeant. Hee!

*applause!* *confetti!!* *fanfare!* *screaming teenage girls tossing their delicates on stage!*
*ahem*
Sorry...things got a little out of control there. My apologies. But can you blame me? I mean, seriously--you start this final chapter with perhaps the worst pep talk in the history of pep talks and expect me to remain silent? I'll have you know I had to stop reading for a full minute and a half while I tried to compose myself--I was laughing that hard!
And somehow, even before he said it, I instinctively knew that Dwight used commemorative spoons to clean his ears. The fact that I knew that horrifies me more than you know.
I am so proud of you for taking the leap into a new genre, and thrilled that you have produced something so wonderful! You should definitely explore this new realm, because you have a real knack for comedy, as well as the sweet JAMMY stories we already love.
Bravo, I say...Bravo!

I just loved the Sergant's goodbye to the troops. I mean, "I hope within each of you lies a heart murmur..." - so funny.
“Go after her. Please. It’s tiring just watching you two.” Please, your words to Greg Daniels' ears.
Michael's thank you gift and “We are not retreating, we are advancing in another direction.” - wonderful.
I enjoyed this story!!!
