He despises Michael for his moronic behavior and proceeded to insult Michael in front of the staff during Darryl's safety training seminar, after Michael frequently interrupts the presentation with his obnoxiousness.

Todd Packer

Todd Packer (David Koechner) Traveling Sales Manager is an obnoxious traveling sales representative who tells obscene, disrespectful jokes that offend everyone except Michael, who considers Packer his best friend, although it is apparent that the friendship is one-sided: Packer treats Michael more like an audience for his jokes rather than a friend. The two have known each other for years, since Michael's days as a sales rep in the Scranton branch. A dedicated prankster, Packer deposited a highly odorous substance in Michael's office in "The Carpet", which was never clearly revealed to viewers (although it was hinted strongly that it was Packer's own feces). Due to a DUI, Packer cannot drive his red Chevrolet Corvette convertible (Pennsylvania license plate "WL HUNG"). Packer particularly ridicules Jim for being "queer".

Wallace replaced Randall, the former CFO who resigned after sexual harassment charges were brought against him.

After Craig reveals that Michael and Jan hooked up, Wallace does not punish the two after hearing Michael's explanation. When it is announced in "Branch Closing" that the Scranton Branch would be closing, Michael and Dwight go to his house to get Wallace to change his mind. However, he is not home and the Scranton branch is later saved by reasons unrelated to their presence. In "Cocktails", Wallace invites the company to his home for cocktails.

Craig

Referred by Michael as the man who's been kicked out of every strip club in Albany, Craig (Craig Anton) was introduced in "Valentine's Day" as the regional manager of the Albany branch. Craig failed to do a report on his branch's financial performance, using the excuse that he thought it was just a meet and greet, putting his branch in a bad light, and made Michael's presentation (which included a cheesy video) look more professional. In retaliation, Craig revealed the affair between Michael and Jan to the CFO. Michael says he is "not the sharpest tool in the box, although he is a tool" when explaining the incident to David Wallace, who snickers at the comment.

In a deleted scene from Drug Testing, Brenda calls the office, asking for Jim, but he isn't allowed to talk since he has been jinxed by Pam, so he does not answer.

In "Grief Counseling", Michael learns of Ed's death when it's mentioned by Jan over the phone. Later, Creed describes Ed's death in detail, saying that his capa was detated ( decapitated) after driving down Route 6 while intoxicated, and sliding his vehicle beneath an 18-wheeler.

Devon

Devon (Devon Abner); former office worker. An office employee who sat across from Creed (who is directly responsible for getting Devon fired, to save his own job). Devon was reluctantly laid off by Michael on "Halloween", and took it badly. In a bid to salvage their "friendship", Michael offered Devon free Chili's gift certificates which Devon ripped up in Michael's face. While storming out, Devon invited "Kevin, Jim, Pam, Kelly, Toby, Oscar, Meredith, Phyllis, Stanley, and the temp," to drinks, leaving out Angela, Dwight, Michael, and Creed. This implies he was never friendly with Angela and Dwight. Devon then smashes a pumpkin on Michael's car in sad retaliation. The episode marks his only dialogue in front of the camera. When Michael later receives a $3,000 Christmas bonus due to Dunder-Mifflin saving money through downsizing, he considers calling Devon to thank him, saying "some good came of it."

Tony Gardner

Tony Gardner (Mike Bruner) was a worker at the Stamford branch, and is one of the employees that was transferred to Scranton during "The Merger". His first appearance is in the "Diwali" episode, when his chips get stuck in a vending machine, and Karen helps him get them out, joking with him about "shaking it". Dwight, before even meeting Tony, tries to persuade Michael to fire him on his first day in order to scare the new employees straight. On Tony's first day, he can hardly take Michael's antics (sitting through a painful orientation video made by Michael), but he hits his breaking point when Michael and Dwight tried to lift his extremely large frame onto a table for an orientation demonstration (Michael refers to his leg as a "hock"). Humiliated and angry, Tony quits, admitting that he was not completely sure about transferring to begin with, but mostly blaming Michael's management style.

Martin Nash

Martin Nash (Wayne Wilderson) Finance. Martin Nash worked at the Stamford branch, and was one of the employees transferred to Scranton in "The Merger". Before working at Dunder-Mifflin, he served time in prison after getting busted for insider trading (which Kevin says is strangely similar to what he does). However, since he was put in a minimum-security facility, Martin claims his time in prison was just really boring. When he was released, he was hired by Josh through a federal reformed convict employment program, which allows Dunder-Mifflin to receive rebate checks. Michael made a bad first impression on Martin, when he told the African-American employee, "I will show you where all the slaves work." He attempted to befriend Stanley, but failed. In "The Convict", when Martin's past is revealed to the office, Michael overly stresses his trust in Martin to everyone, worried that people would see him as a racist for looking at him as an ex-convict. However, since Martin's tales from prison were generally positive, everyone actually envies his experience compared to their jobs, frustrating Michael. Martin is the second employee from the Stamford branch to leave, due to Michael's management style, particularly after Michael makes his prison sentence the focal point of one of his seminars.

Gil

Gil (Tom W. Chick) is Oscar's partner. In "The Secret", Dwight is the first character to meet Gil. Dwight staked out Oscar's home because he believed that he was feigning illness to skip work. Oscar and Gil invite Dwight in to their home, yet Dwight remains oblivious to the nature of their relationship. When Oscar is outed to the entire office in Gay Witch Hunt, Michael still thinks Gil is just Oscar's roommate. Gil is a bit of an art snob - he criticizes Pam's art (calling it "motel art") because it is too formulaic and takes no chances, much like Pam herself. It is revealed in "Beach Games" that Oscar is looking for a way out of his relationship with Gil.

Mose Schrute

Mose Schrute (writer Michael Schur). Dwight's cousin and best friend. A resident of the Schrute beet farm, he and Dwight used to make a living off of selling beets. In the "Initiation", Dwight takes Ryan to the farm to test him before his first sales call. He is first seen darting quickly through the barn, although Ryan is immediately able to guess who it is (despite never meeting him before). As Ryan's final "test", he had to wrestle Mose, prompting Ryan to storm out of barn, with Mose commenting that he "seemed nice." Mose is also an amateur whittler; the object that he gave to Ryan to apologize for his participation in Dwight's hazing incident is in fact a very well executed replica of a famous 22,000- to 24,000-year-old figurine from Austria known as "The Venus of Willendorf." It is also mentioned in a deleted scene of the second season DVD that Mose has never left the beet farm. Image File history File links TheOffice-MoseSchrute. ...

Office relationships

• Jim and Pam - close friends. They have never actually been a couple, although it is clear that they are in love with each other. Jim confessed to Pam in "Casino Night" that he was in love with her, and the two shared a kiss. However, Pam was reluctant to pursue a relationship with Jim because she was engaged to Roy, and told him he had misinterpreted her feelings. In The Job, Jim asked Pam out on a date and she accepted.
• Michael and Jan - once dating. Started dating when Michael asked Jan to go to Jamaica with him in "A Benihana Christmas". Officially announced their relationship in "Cocktails". They broke up in "Women's Appreciation" when Michael left a voicemail on Jan's cell stating that he wished that they took a permanent break. In The Job, they get back together due to Jan's new breast augmentation surgery.
• Dwight and Angela - dating secretly, although the camera crew, Pam, Jim, and (possibly) Ryan are aware of their relationship. Angela knows that Pam knows of it.
• Pam and Roy - dated for 7 years, engaged for more than three years, wedding called off in between seasons 2 and 3; revealed to be dating again 8 months later in "Business School", but broke up during "Cocktails" after Roy's violent reaction to Pam telling him that Jim made a move on her during Casino Night.
• Jim and Karen - dating since "The Convict". In The Job, Jim has presumably broken up with Karen (and left her in New York City) for Pam. However, Karen's reaction is not portrayed and she presumably will continue working in Scranton when season four begins.
• Ryan and Kelly - first hooked up in "Valentine's Day", and were dating (Kelly enthusiastically, Ryan reluctantly) until the end of "The Job".
• Oscar and Gil - living together in a committed relationship, revealed in "The Secret", but in "Beach Games" it is revealed that Oscar wishes to end the relationship.
• Phyllis and Bob Vance, Vance Refrigeration - married in the episode "Phyllis' Wedding".
• Kevin and Stacy - engaged, revealed that they set a date in "Cocktails".
• Jim and Katy - broke up during "Booze Cruise".
• Michael and Carol - dated for a few months; Michael proposed to her in "Diwali" and they broke up in "A Benihana Christmas".
• Stanley and Terri - married.
• Andy and Jamie - Andy ended his relationship with a part-time yogurt chef when he discovered she was a high school student in "Product Recall".
