Well, voting for last week’s Office Poll (#5) is pretty much complete, and it looks like we have a clear winner for least desired condition/disease to suffer from:

Kevin, we feel your pain…well, sort of.

Our good friends over at Give Me My Remote will be interviewing Rainn Wilson in the near future, so make sure to go over to the GMMR boards and post a reader question for Rainn!

You’ll need to register for the forums if you haven’t already done so, but make sure not to miss out on your chance to ask that burning question that has been lingering in your mind about the alter ego of our favorite Dunder Mifflin Salesman of the Year!

And The Winner Is…

Ok, first off, we at Diversity Tomorrow apologize for such a lengthy absence. With a desk job, weekend out-of-state photo shoot, getting sick and the computer being on the fritz, it seemed the gods were conspiring against me to announce the winner of Diversity Tomorrow’s first Office Photoshop Contest winner. But alas, all is well, and the results are in…

Our first place winner (and recipient of the Dwight Schrute-inspired mousepad) with 40 votes: Entry #5 (”Schrute First, Ask Questions Later”)

Second Place Runner-Up: A tie between Entry #6 (”Quarantine Area”) and Entry #3 (”What Will You Do?”)

Now, I understand there was an issue within the comments over how relevant Entry #5 was to the photo. If you read the post regarding the initial contest, the only specific instruction was to replace the “Dwight Schrute Workspace” sign with a unique slogan or design. Did it have to match in terms of the context of the scene? Maybe, but I don’t think it was mandatory. It’s “Office” fans who voted to determine the winner, and #5 seemed to strike a chord with most fans. Anyhow, it’s all in good fun and helps kill time at work, and that’s what’s really important, isn’t it?

Thanks again to all our entrants and to everone that voted! Look out in the next couple weeks for another Office Photoshop Contest!

Weekly Office Poll #5

Ok, so last week I didn’t have a poll, but I’m counting the Photoshop contest voting as poll-esque, so apologies for depriving you of a poll. Hopefully this week’s question should make up for it.

Weekly Office Poll #5- Which disease/condition would you least want to suffer from?

Tennesseeans Get the Shaft

Administrator — Fri, 03 Mar 2006 14:20:59 +0000

Rumor has it that “The Office” was pre-empted for some sort of kiddie infommercial last night and was bumped to 1:35 a.m. What the ?!? From what I hear, the station manager at the NBC affiliate was getting phone calls left and right about this atrocity, and rightly so. If you’re a fan from Tennessee, I feel for you. Having to wait that much longer after such an already long wait is just too much for an “Office” fan to handle.

More details as this story develops…

Jenna on “The Today Show”

I’m sure YouTube will have a direct link shortly, but for now, here’s a link to the interview with Jenna on “The Today Show”.

Enjoy!

TV Blogging

Administrator — Thu, 02 Mar 2006 14:22:27 +0000

There’s a nice little article in the Chicago Red Eye* newspaper about TV blogging and how it’s become popular for shows to use another medium to promote themselves through character blogs. Including Schrute-Space, there’s a couple for “Gray’s Anatomy“, “How I Met Your Mother” and “Invasion“.

Most of the blogs are supposed to be written by the character of the show, however Rainn is the only actor who writes for his character’s blog. The other ones are written by writing assistants or the network’s “online team” (whatever that is). Rainn has a funny response at the end of the article when he’s talking about the girls who comment on his blog who ask him to introduce them to Jim. He says, “Normally, that might make Dwight jealous, but Dwight knows he’s a better salesman than Jim, and that’s what really counts.” I’ll try to scan the article sometime later today once the boss has left for the afternoon.

Again, just another reason why I love this cast and all the heart and soul they put into the show!

*The Red Eye is the Chicago Tribune’s answer for trying to get 20-somethings to read the newspaper paper and a free read for us commuters who want to avoid crazy people/panhandlers while riding the El to work).

Hot off the Presses

1. New nuggets of information and insight have just been posted on Schrute-Space, courtesy of Dwight “Danger” Schrute. After a few weeks off, it’s nice to hear from the Schrutemeister once again.

2. If you didn’t already read about it on Jenna’s MySpace blog and live in or near the Chicago area, Jenna’s going to be in town to promote her and her husband’s new movie “SLiTHER” as part of the Fangoria Weekend of Horror on March 4-5. Not sure if I’ll be able to make it or not, but would love to meet our favorite receptionist in person, and for an added bonus, get the hell scared out of me at the screening of their new movie!

3. Last chance to get in your entries for “The Office” Photoshop Contest! Entries will be accepted until midnight tonight (Central Time Zone)!

Which "Office"mate do you model your work ethic after
Stanley- I’m here to work and support my family, but it’s simply a "run out the clock" situation Toby- I hide in the back of the office and try to avoid as many meetings as possible Jim- I do as little as possible and yet somehow still get by Dwight- I’m a top performer with a dog-like obedience to authority Angela- I take work very seriously, I’m the head of my department! Michael- I’m a typical manager with a fancy title, but do very little ACTUAL work Meredith- I keep a flask in my desk and take sips to pass the time Pam- I dream about having a better job but I’m already so comfortable in the job I already have
