'Everyone on the call was just sitting in confused silence': 15 Bosses who brought "The Office" energy to their workplaces

Once or twice in your career, you'll end up with a boss who acts a lot like Michael Scott, the goofy boss of the beloved TV show "The Office." Much like the character himself, these bosses are prone to goofing off, being jokey with employees, always being a prankster or cracking dad jokes, or just being a menace in general.

These people shared the wild things their "Office" bosses said to them, and some of them make you wonder how these people ever got picked to lead a team. One of the more shocking ones is a boss who snuck up behind a middle-aged employee and picked her up! He then told her he "didn't think you weighed that much." Oh, and this guy was a middle school principal. Hopefully that guy was ousted for that, because he shouldn't be leading anyone, let alone a school. It seems like he belongs with the students, since their maturity level is about the same.

Scroll down to check out these employees who told all about their bosses' funniest and strangest behavior. Then, this team was instructed to make sure employees were spending the least amount of money possible while on a work trip…but they somehow ended up spending $42,000.
