    Knits. She knitted Michael an oven mit at Christmas.

    Is quite lucky at poker. Thinks a club flush means “having all the clovers.”

    Was excited about the Women in the Workplace day with Jan:

    “I love girl talk.”

    Calls her boyfriend, Bob Vance, “Bobby”.

    Dances with Creed on the Booze Cruise.

    Is insulted by almost everyone at some point, including Todd Packer.

    Bought cute little lights for the Christmas Party and was embarassed when they didn’t generate much light.

    She takes pride in her spreadsheets in “Boys in Girls,” but Angela disagrees.

    My personal favorite quote:

    “I don’t like you.” to Angela in “Conflict Resolution”

    Does not get along with Angela. I read somewhere that the actress was once a beauty queen. She manages to have all the girls jealous of her on V-day when her boyfriend showers her with gifts.

    She is the ‘Grandmother’ of the office, even though she graduated in the same class as Michael. : )

    Phyllis had scoliosis as a child but was a basketball star in high school (which is verified in the basketball episode when she takes a great shot)…this adds depth to her character. We know that she overcame great odds as a child to be able to excel at a sport like basketball in highschool.

    She has apparently had a one night stand before, and is unsure if this needs to be disclosed to HR (probably the best moment of “Sexual Harassment”)

    Is the only person in the office [not the show, the actual room office, warehouse is not part of the office] to not have taken a personal interview with the camera, like talking to the camera.

    I can specifically think of everyone else the office doing one.

    In talking to Pam about an upcoming dates, Phyllis tells Pam, “You should order the most expensive thing on the menu. So he knows you’re worth it.”
    Stanley, who overhears, says, “If you do that, you’re going to have to put out.”
    Phyllis responds, “Well yeah, you’ll have to put out.”

    Makes you wonder about her first date with Bobby!

    I Love Phyllis! I think her quiet humor on the show is under-rated. Yeah Phyllis! St. Louis produces some awesome people
