Asked to pick a TV working environment most like their own, more than half cited “The Office” in a recent online poll.
In fact, 53% of respondents said the “boring and mismanaged” workplace depicted in “The Office” was most like their own, according to a nonscientific online poll of 4,800 visitors to Monster.com. On the other hand, the fast-paced environment on hospital drama “ER” garnered 23%, while the “You’re Fired” cutthroat competition of Donald Trump’s reality show “The Apprentice” drew 13% of the votes. The personal “theatrics” and romance on medical drama “Grey’s Anatomy” was close behind with 11%.
