that's what she said

The great thing about working in an office is that there are, inevitably, other "Office" fans around at all times. It makes work more fun, because there are other people to laugh at corporate absurdities with you, and to share quotes and re-enact plot lines with you instead of, you know, working.

And Eagle reporter Amy Carr has even found a new way to put "Office" fandom to productive use at work.

The next time you're having trouble focusing in a staff meeting, try the trick she developed while covering a meeting for the paper last night: Tally up all the "that's what she said" lines other people say.

For example, she gave me this list from last night's meeting:

* "We can decide where to put that later."

* We don't have to bang this out right now."

* You're making this hard for everyone."

* We don't want this to be hard for anyone."

... and my favorite:

* "Doing it earlier than the end of the fiscal year would be too soon."
