Meta
Her boyfriend is Bob Vance, of Vance Refrigeration.
She’s a member of the party planning committe whose ideas are often shot down by Angela.
Referred to as “Mother Goose” by Toby’s daughter, Sasha.
Won the gold medal in Flonkkerton on Office Olympics.
Knits. She knitted Michael an oven mit at Christmas.
Is quite lucky at poker. Thinks a club flush means “having all the clovers.”
“Came alive” during Office Olympics:
“Are you calling me a ho?”
She told Angela “I don’t like you” during conflict resolution episode.
Makes a great shot in the Basketball episode.
Played “Catherine Zeta Jones” in Michael’s movie “Threat Level Midnight”
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.
One talking head, during Boys & Girls, where she says she loves girl talk.
Aww you got me there.
good job!
She knits a red oven mit for Michael, but gets hurt when she realizes how much he hates it.
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
