Michael's Daily Musings

Michael is the boss who loves his employees like his own children; he sees himself as the hero flying in to save the day, and as such, creates many sticky situations he must maneuver out of. Michael’s vocabulary consists of many lexemes containing positive attitude thinking for his perspective about who he sees himself as the self-titled “World’s Best Boss.” Michael bases his thesis for why he feels this way on the fact that he wants to create unity with those he works with in the office and feel the love back from his employees that he so vividly exudes. Michael's speech reflects his eagerness to avoid controversy and create settings in which he and his employees "feel good." Unfortunately, this often results in extremely awkward situations because Michael often fails to realize the social implications behind what he is doing. For example, Michael creates a "diversity awareness day" in which his employees must wear cards on their foreheads with the names of different racial and ethnic groups. This turns out to be disastrous when several people end up wearing the card with the name of their actual ethnicity on it, ensiting accusations of racial slurs at Michael.
