Michael is a friendly guy but he is socially awkward. It is kind of hard to explain him. Michael views himself as being extremely politically correct but...he isn't. He tries to be though, so, I guess that is all that matters. Michael thinks that he is a great comedian. He even takes acting lessons in which he portrays his alter ego, Michael Scarn. He even wrote a screenplay staring Michael Scarn which employees at Dunder Mifflin found and read out loud one day while Michael wasn't there. The employees do not take Michael very seriously.Quotes by Michael- so, you can understand him a little better:
Michael Scott: My proudest moment here wasn't when I increased profits by 17%, or cut expenditure without losing a single member of staff. No no no. It was a young Guatamalan guy, first job in the country, barely spoke a word of English, but he came to me and said "Mr. Scott, will you be the godfather to my child?" Didn't work out in the end. We had to let him go. He sucked.
Michael Scott: Toby is in HR, which technically means he works for corporate, so he's really not a part of our family. Also, he's divorced, so he's really not a part of his family.
Michael Scott: Attention everyone, hello! Yes, I just want you to know that this is not my decision but from here on out, we can no longer be friends. And when we talk about things here [the office], we must only discuss work associated things. And uh, you can consider this my retirement from comedy. And in the future if I want to say something funny, or witty, or do an impression I will no longer, ever, do any of those things.
Jim Halpert: Does that include "That's what she said?"
Michael Scott: Mmm hmm, yes.
Jim Halpert: Wow. That is really hard. [Michael almost says it] You really think you can go all day long? [Michael nearly bursts trying not to say it] Well, you always left me satisfied and smiling.
Michael Scott: That's what she said!
The latest with Michael is that his ex-girlfriend, Jan, is pregnant. But not with his child. They had a terrible relationship. Jan manipulated and abused Michael all of the time. At one moment, she would say that she wanted kids and then the next she would change her mind...causing Michael to get several vasectomies and then have them reversed again. Anyway, Jan used to be Michael's boss until she got fired for her bizarre behavior. Anyway, back to the baby. Jan went to a sperm bank behind Michael's back and it was revealed that she was pregnant in the season finale last season (4). Michael is very excited about it because he has always wanted a child.Alright, and now this season (5), it seems that he has met the perfect girl, Holly. She is just as dorky and awkward as Michael (more on Holly later).
