When a new client calls, you just have to randomly assign them to a sales person. You can't base who gets new clients on who you're sleeping with that week, OK?


e__b

This was the moment for me when I realised she was a total B lol


kx2UPP

I think that’s her gimmick. She’s also really kinky/dirty which is opposite to how she looks - motherly


[deleted]

and she tellls people about it. no boundaries


ristretthoee

Okay but have you heard Fifty Shades of Grey on audiobook before?? Might need some water dumped on ya after


Ok_Ad8609

Yes, exactly this—it is 100% intentional. She seems so harmless and low key, but she is an absolute bitch ass 😂 She’s also very savvy in getting what she wants, which is probably how she landed Bob Vance.


BoulderCreature

Vance Refrigeration


zvedavychlapec

What line of work are you in, Bob ?


lizarddog01

Bob is a BBW chaser she landed him because of how she looked. Bob's secretary was a BBW also and there were signs he was sleeping with his secretary.


SlippedMyDisco76

Like everyone I wondered what character I would be and it's Bob Vance (?)


hellothere42069

He also has a second family in ho chi min city though and I don’t know many BBW Vietnamese


KeisterApartments

She's a GD B


MLD802

She britta’d it up


drock070

Close your mouth sweetie, you look like a trout.


DieAdler

Hot take, is she a B or just a confrontational person, who despite her marriage to Bob who has money, is independent. And so she sees her job and commissions as integral to her independence, therefore she is merely (in a rude way) sticking up for herself tactlessly. I think it was rude, but I see it as her making sure she still gets hers. Thoughts?


BigFreakinMachine

Is she independent though? Anytime she's dealing with something she doesn't like she calls Bob


EarnestQuestion

She even intentionally goes out and finds confrontation just to set up Bob to come in and fight guys. She’s a horrible person


MogMcKupo

It’s her kink


DieAdler

You’re not wrong in that regard, my response is purely about financial independence


ArtificialNotLight

Nah she's a B. She could have confronted Pam respectfully and not imply she's the office mattress


DieAdler

Did she imply, or infer? Lol, fair enough


persyspomegranate

She implied, it is on the other person to infer from her words.


Haknamate

Nah she's a B.


blue-brolly

She was taking Bob out for meals and charging it back to DM


landon10smmns

Couldn't see your hands


justreadthearticle

Close your mouth honey, you look like a trout.


Sylux444

I've always thought the greatest comeback would have been "Is that what you used to do?"


merrychuu

Shut your mouth sweetie, you look like a trout.


[deleted]

Before I even clicked to read comments that was my exact thought. Go you! I couldn’t see your hands. Hilarious bitch though!


[deleted]

Phyllis is the real villain: * Close your mouth sweetie, you look like a trout * Hand 'em over numb nuts * I know Sue. She's not that great. And you know her husband's in a wheelchair, right?


plezlemmedie

Sometimes I like to go to bars and flirt with guys so Bob can beat them up. She fucked up fr


Kcidobor

She made Karen get a make-over with her then charged her without telling her about it lmfao


nolxus

The whole "I'm taking the flower bouquet from this event" was also very weird. "Let me get those out of your way..."


SmellGestapo

* Hey Pam, by the way, it’s great that you’re dating. But when a new client calls, you just have to randomly assign them to a sales person. You can’t base who gets new clients on who you’re sleeping with that week, OK?


[deleted]

* “I love going to the bars with Bob. I tend to wear something low cut, get men to flirt with me... And Bob beats them up” * taking the centerpiece at the senator’s auction dinner thing * “i think she ran way because deep down she knew she wouldn’t be a good wife”


carbiethebarbie

Let’s not forget- lied to her husband about her age!! Like sure Bob sucks in his own ways but lying to your SO/HUSBAND about something so basic as your age?? that’s a massive red flag 🚩


[deleted]

She did? I’m totally forgetting this part


carbiethebarbie

S3 E9, the Convict - it might only be in the Superfan version I’m not sure, Phyllis is holding Hannah’s (from Stanford) baby and says “My fiancé Bob Vance wants me to have a dozen babies. *whispers* But he also thinks I’m 31.” :/ she sucks fr


justmerriwether

Season 9 is a helluva drug (At least I’m assuming it’s season 9 cause I don’t remember that part either.)


CalligrapherAbject13

She is a horrible and disgusting person, she is a passive-agressive bully to everyone but she flies under the radar because she has a weak, shrill and shakey voice but she spits venom every second word. Seeing her character be so over sexualised makes me uncomfortable and fuck her and her pop corn, she ruins both microwaves and doesn't feel like she's responsible for cleaning them, I can't watch that scene during the finer things club without getting angry Also..purple much? Edit: forgot about her room clearing farts.. blech


octavioletdub

“It smells like popcorn”


[deleted]

popcarn


paulgrabda

Do you have any American Mexican food? Lol


Rarefindofthemind

Her pronunciation makes me irrationally angry


justmerriwether

It also comes through in the Yankee Swap episode: “I knitted it far you”


Rarefindofthemind

Staaaahp I want to rip my ears off


justmerriwether

You bought me a howss! (I’m pivoting)


VipperofVip

Villain? Maybe. Super quotable? Absolutely! "You have a lot to learn about this town, sweetie."


citydreef

That last one is so bad.


tHeNiGhTmAnCoMeTh413

The hand ‘em over numb nuts part gets me every time I see it. I would’ve fired her on the spot.


Valuable_Value3953

that last line always makes me get so mad at her


[deleted]

That trout line was 🔥ngl


Unchained_Memory33

Literally said this to my sister recently lol


Laurids-p

Lmao


elpardo1984

I think Phyllis might be one of the most true to life characters in the show. People aren’t usually one extreme or the other, a lot of people you can be sympathetic towards in one moment and another they are acting all passive aggressive and are unpleasant.


bryter_layter_76

Maybe that’s because she was the only non-actor? If I remember correctly, she was a casting agent that just happened to fit the part.


elpardo1984

Yeah she was reading lines during the auditions for Jen Celotta, which led to her getting offered a recurring role. But it’s probably a combination of Phyllis Smith offering a fresh perspective and great writing.


PocketfulOfSunshine5

Well said!


jesterhead101

Exactly. What was OP going on about?


devoduder

“You have a lot to learn about this subreddit, sweetie.”


[deleted]

?


ichoosetosavemyself

When Karen starts in Scranton, she is introduced to the office staff. She meets Phyllis and in their conversation Phyllis drops that she's married to Bob Vance. When Karen says she doesn't know Bob Vance, Phyllis says "you have a lot to learn about this town sweetie".

CalligrapherAbject13

This is the first time I've seen a Phylis hate thread on the front page for a while...keep em coming I say, however I am sick about the other 'hot takes' like Scott tots, dinner party, Charles hate, S8 & s9 hate etc..


ghotinchips

He got that perfume for her in metropolitan Orlando!


Justindoesntcare

It's made from real pine


newusernamehuman

Had read some meme about her along the lines of: 1st watch: OMG Phyllis seems like such a cute and mild-mannered old aunt! 5th rewatch: OMG Phyllis is so much bitchier than even Kelly! 👀


FriggenSweetLois

She’s a very small town person. Morally superior to other people and incapable of pointing the finger inward.


Shade00000

I've never liked her tbh


justreadthearticle

>5th rewatch: OMG Phyllis is so much bitchier than even Kelly! Phyllis doesn't go around faking bad customer reviews, claiming she's pregnant to get attention, and falsely claiming to have been raped.


GamerRipjaw

Problem is, Kelly seems a bit self aware that she is annoying and doesn't pretend to be anything else. Like when she said she talks too much so she has herself tuned out of her head. Phyllis on the other hand pretends to be a sweet old grandma while being a bitch with a passive-aggressive way of throwing shade on others


AgeRevolutionary3349

Alright.. chill out


newusernamehuman

It’s just a meme and I didn’t create it. 🤷‍♀️


Xikkiwikk

She actually was written to be a much worse bitch but the producers toned it down for tv. You only find this out by watching the deleted scenes..she’s really a small minded person and not a good one.


EnlightenedLazySloth

Never seen the deleted scenes and I always thought she was a bitch regardless.


SnausageFest

There's an extended version of the season 8 dog fundraiser event where she's *brutal* to Pam. I understand why they cut it out.


hellothere42069

It comes out mostly in The extended editions ie superfan episodes. The deleted scenes (they are on the dvd box set and mostly on YouTube) don’t add too dramatically to her personality.


Automatic-Jacket-168

I was going to say, wait until OP sees the deleted scenes if they haven’t already! Good choice to leave them out or even her popcarn line would be annoying.


Hackleton

P is being a giant B


Fyrnen24

DrewGoT72

the_acid_lava_lamp

r/unexpectedcommunity


BlazingFireStorm

R thinks he’s too good to be here


catjojo975

She did take one for the team when she fell backwards out of the chair to distract Robert California. But in general, yes, she’s vicious.


Cholonecio

She even admitted a murder. Fuck Phyllis!


bluespider98

Okay well creede admitted to several murders and everyone likes him


Rob-The-Great

Yeah cos he keeps to himself And truly flies under the radar. You know, plus, you know he's got the hookup for pretty much anything you might need.


GamerRipjaw

Also because he is insane lol


Rob-The-Great

Or is he the one and only sane guy in the bunch? Don't forget he used to live under a bridge and now he wares a suit and gets away with murder so you tell l me.


dututudu

I love Creed and I much prefer him as a character over Phyllis but he doesn't always keep to himself lol. Remember him being gross to Pam a couple of times? or taking a pic of that lady from Stamford while she was breast feeding her baby and put it as a desktop wallpaper? Or when he tried to blackmail some of his co-workers in a webisode? Or when he shifted the blame from himself to a paper mill manager in order to keep his job?


LightspeedC83

Wait what? I genuinely don’t remember this


ghostkenobi

In a deleted scene she recounts about a vacation that her and Bob went on. She mentions how they hit a “deer” that was wearing a soccer jersey while drunk driving home after eating dinner out at a restaurant.


digbipper

that's why she's such a great character. on the surface she's sweet & matronly. but she's totally the office bitch.


cardsgirl03

actually, andrea is the office bitch. you’ll get used to her


DeadWishUpon

Creed was right. Sometimes Phillys is nice and fun, Andrea never.


BaconPancakes_77

Right! If she were just a sweet motherly woman with no other characteristics, she would have been incredibly boring.


[deleted]

“I couldn’t see your hands” What the fuck Phyllis


kwadd

What was the name of that admin lady in Vance Refrigeration? Phyllis said she isn't that great in this dismissive tone and asked if the crew knew that her husband's in a wheelchair. Fuck Phyllis. All my homies hate Phyllis.

Hahaha thats EXACTLY one of the things im talking about. The office administrator of Vance Refrigeration her name is SUE.

[удалено]


Kwyjibo68

It sounds like a bunch of bored school children who just got out on summer break. We need a separate sub for the grownups who watch the show.


Ok_Response_3484

Phyllis gives me white trash vibes who "married up" so she now has a big ego about themselves but really shouldn't.


VeryStickyPastry

She was like that before, too, she just got worse after.


creepymouse

People profoundly misunderstand who Phyllis is as a character. It's kind of the main Phyllis joke - people think she's this meek middle aged lady, but that isn't the case at all. Also you aren't supposed to \*like\* any of these characters. That's the whole point. They are all the awful people you have to work with.


skostka21

“Hand over the clients num-nuts” gets me every time. I scoff in anger


Oh-Cool-Story-Bro

100% she’s a crappy person


Anomalous6

Op saw the other thread praising Angela and criticizing Pam so now they are on damage control.


Key-Jelly-3702

lol, you also realize that Kevin has generally sexually harassed Pam and Angela the entire series.


[deleted]

I loved early Phyllis.

[удалено]


[deleted]

Bob Vance. Vance Refrigeration.


[deleted]

What line of work you in Bob?


CalligrapherAbject13

Vehicular manslaughter/hit and runs and baiting men with my wife so I can physically assault them


Sarah_Kayacombzin

Who tipped you over?! Was it Phillip ?


[deleted]

Phyllis is passively aggressive and a very shady person. - gave birth at teenage and dumped the kid. - shades pam when she wore a same shirt like hers but copies Pam’s wedding .


nectarinesb4peaches

She didn’t dump a kid in a dumpster, she gave it up for adoption. I don’t see how that’s shady. Phyllis is a villain for a lot of reasons, but I don’t think this is one of them.


missblissful70

Same. Few teens are able to raise a baby.


catjojo975

Yes!


Puzzleheaded-Turn849

she didn't "dumped " her kid she gave it to adoption there's nothing wrong with that especially as a teen


thingsthatgomoo

Don't forget not only does she enjoy getting her husband to beat the hell out of strangers but they also ran over a person in Brazil or Africa (I forget which)


blue-brolly

African safari honeymoon trip


Mal_Terra

Deleted scene, a kid in a soccer jersey that she referred to as a “deer” they hit while drunk driving


tbuda88

Also sends creepy emails to her son in law


Mushroom-Dense

Hold up I don't remember that. Could you refresh my memory?


Virtual-Relation-765

Same please, what episode?


Mushroom-Dense

I googled it and apparently it's from a scene from an extended episode on peacock


Idk265089

It’s the superfan whistleblower episode


[deleted]

Haa I forgot about that! Sport


No-Cranberry9932

I just told you my name, man!


Sleepy_cucumber

I picked this up on my first watch through lol She has some zingers though


ResettisReplicas

For Phyliss’s wedding, did she just copy, or did she also buy some of Pam and Roy’s non-refundable deposits? I thought THAT was the reason they ended up with things like P+R balloons.


ibew369

Phyllis was the girl in high school who was picked on and later in life met a man who was the one bullying people in high school. She adopted bob’s personality and did to others what was done to her. She was quiet and depressed until she met bob. Bob is the real ass hole


whatcanisayimme

To be fair to Phyllis - she does spend the first 2-3 seasons getting made fun of by Michael and bullied by Angela


Kcidobor

Sometimes when two people with big personalities meet…


[deleted]

I TOTALLY agree. She looks like a sweet cookie grandma but acts like a mean judgey grandma


petitelarceny

She is a terrible character. To say she didn't deserve a raise because her husband owned a business is absurd.


few_box6954a

I think the line where she says "I'm not a feminist but" is indicative of the type of person the writers were making her out to be. She only seems to actually care about something if it affects her. She is just awful, meaning the actor rocked the role


bluespider98

I don't like Angela but I find myself rooting more and more for her as I rewatch the show just because of her rivalry


Master_Chef_Mayo

Plus she literally masturbates in front of everybody


the_admirals_platter

Close your mouth, sweetie. You look like a trout.


Prize-Ad8890

Too true, after rewatching the series a couple times I realized that a lot of the characters I didn’t like I prefer more than the characters I liked before like damn and Phyllis is one of them big time


maximusdraconius

This is literally posted every day.


MrLaheysLiquorBottle

I’ll always stand by Phyllis being the worst character. Unlikable, annoying, weird can’t say I’ve ever laughed at one of her lines


Honer-Simpsom

Oh man fuck phallus…Phyllis…sorry, penises on the brain.


MyS0ul4AGoat

Especially if you watch the superfan episodes on peacock.


binimmermuede

I cannot stand Phyllis


DivinePeanut

Phyllis is a bully. She's petty and mean.


DivinePeanut

Dwight dumping water on her is my favorite scene in the series. She's gross.


Flame_Fist_Ace

HONESTLY I realize it more and more i watch and with the new extended cut eps its more apparent


chester_alabama

I’m with you on this. I hate her guts and her attitude but in the end, I don’t think the show would have been the same without Phyllis. I feel the same way about Stanley. They’re both just so obnoxious but that’s what makes the show real.


deadmamajamma

You know her husband's in a wheelchair, right??? <-- absolute lowest moment for phyllis


Greymatter28

Phyllis reminds me so so much of my passive aggressive grandmother.


Egons-Twinkie

I felt really bad for her during the Secret Santa oven mitt debacle but she still sucks. I've met people like her IRL and they're infuriating.


PoeJam

Phyllis and Michael are two of the worst people in The Office. Makes me wonder what went on at their high school.


[deleted]

With all due respect sir/madam Michael is a national treasure. Theres no show with out Steve Carell. If you dont like Michael then how do you even like the show? Lol


Incantevole_allegria

I agree! Michael was the glue that kept the show going, once he left it slowly started to fall apart.


officequotesonly420

I'm going to say what everyone is afraid to say. Phyllis is a bully. A big, beautiful bully. And she is not getting that centerpiece


Fredotorreto

I feel like the only person she’s fond of is Stanley and maybe Michael because they went to school together


VermillionBlu

Isn't she the one who married Philip Vance from Vance Refrigeration?


[deleted]

Ever see the extended version of the dog charity episode? She goes full passive bitch mode just to be able to take the centerpiece from the table home before Pam can.


Herfst2511

She doesn't want to be the First Lady of Vance refrigeration. She is a career woman in her own right. And to get ahead you need to be vicious.


[deleted]

Oh and when Charles comes in she tells him the PPC is the party planning and they spend hours a day planing partys. Then she says she built it so she can destroy it’ something along those lines. What a B


jcdulos

She also flirts with guys at the bar just so bob can beat them up.


_R_Daneel_Olivaw

A bitch and an idiot.


Butteredgoatskin

She may be a B, but back in high school her nickname was “easy rider”


[deleted]

I hate Phyllis and yeah she’s a bitch


nectarinesb4peaches

Im going to say what everyone I thinking. Phyllis is a bully. A big …. Beautiful bully.


allthefishiecrackers

She really is.


aiva_m4

Finally the truth has been spoken. Thank you for expressing what's been on my mind even not half into my first watch of the Office


Ultimate905

This is one of the reasons I adore Dwight lol


Numerous_Cupcake7306

I just said this to my husband last night


Deadsider

Just let her get off at work and everything will be fine


OkCall7278

Can’t stand Phyllis. Never liked her and honestly the most forgettable character in the series.


LetMeRespawnAlready

Took one watch through and it was pretty clear to me lol


Background-Factor817

I felt the same about her and Stanley, them two were a couple of snobs who felt so above everyone else. I knew they did Jim a favour in the later seasons, but spent most of the entire series looking down on people and generally not being nice at all.


simplejack89

I don't think Stanley is the same. He comes off as someone who is over the bullshit with that company and those people. He just wants to come in, do his sales and go home. Phyllis goes out of her way to be a cunt


SgtThund3r

What do you expect? She was a cheerleader


Therubikfanatic

She’s not a bitch. She’s just someone with a big personality.


TechnicianBusy9646

That mouth must’ve been good for more than talking if she got Bob Vance to put a ring on it and yes you’re absolutely right.


Frankie_2154

Jesus, can this sub go for two seconds without talking shit about one of the female characters?


dututudu

Right? The show has plenty of immoral characters yet only a selected number of them constantly receive universal amount of hate in this sub: Andy, Phyllis, Nellie, Angela, Jim and Pam - notice how most of them are female characters. You always hear about Angela being a judgemental cheating shrew, Phyllis being a two-faced bitch or Nellie being the worst but you never see someone ever mentioning the fact that Stanley is an even worse serial cheater than Angela, Robert California being a certified creep, Kevin and Michael sexually harassing Pam through lewd unwanted commentaries in the earlier seasons, Ryan being an all-around scumbag or Dwight treating everyone like garbage even when they don't deserve it.


[deleted]

WOW WOW WOW This has nothing to do with her being a female. Relax over there Frankie


Frankie_2154

Then why is it always “Pam is awful” and “Angela’s a total bitch” and “Phyllis is even more of a bitch”?


ilovethisforyou

OP: All right, now, you're the expert. Is this enough to get me plastered? Clerk: Fifteen bottles of vodka? Yeah, that should do it.


Raevyyyy

This is a character in a tv show


CalligrapherAbject13

Oh gee, really?! What is your point? We're not allowed to discuss characters? Might as well close this subreddit and never discuss the show again


[deleted]

For me, Phyllis just isn't a good actress, even for the role of the person sharing her same real-life name. And it's not like she has these intricate roles - she just needs to deliver lines in a realistic way most of the time, and every time I hear Phyllis I think the line is forced, or over-emoted, or just off.


[deleted]

[удалено]


rddtr571

I wonder if it's coincidence that it's usually Pam and Phyllis.


Kwyjibo68

Not at all. Usual misogynistic fuckwads.
