Open casting call for real life “The Office

icon1 Posted by denised in Bad Boss Stories, Business, Featured Articles on 01 6th, 2011 | 2 responses

I got an interesting email the other day from a casting company in Southern California. They’re working on a real-life version of the wildly popular “The Office.” The fictional U.S. version of The Office documents the shenanigans of bad boss with a good heart Michael Scott and his team of sidekicks. Here, for example, is Diversity Day at The Office…

Diversity Day at Dundler Mifflin

The Casting Firm is asking the question, “Would your real life office antics be entertaining to watch?”

CASTING FOR A NEW DOCU-SERIES: A Major Cable Network is seeking midsize offices full of big personalities that can carry a show. Would your office antics be entertaining to watch?

Is there anything coming up in your workplace that would be exciting to watch unfold? Moving offices, restructuring, new owners, new human resource policies, etc?

Are your coworkers the best….or the worst? Do you all get along or are office politics out of control? Is your boss amazing? Incompetent? The real life Michael Scott? We are looking for every kind of story, whether you have the dream job or work in a disaster zone! Tell us about the cast of characters in your workplace, and why you would all make great Television!

Casting for the first season is taking place in Southern California ONLY. So if your office has 10 employees or more and all are legal residents of the U.S., The Casting Firm wants to hear from you.  If you’re interested send your name, contact details, the name of your company, along with photos of you and your coworkers to casting.docuseries@gmail.com. Make sure you include a contact number so someone from their staff can contact you. For more information visit The Casting Firm’s Office Intervention link here.

Good luck!

    Here is the issue as I see it. You are casting big personalities that can carry the show. Well, drum roll, the big personalities have all been BULLIED and are no longer employed there. They don’t want creative thinking out of the box big personalities. They want human robots to kowtow, not question, not give back talk, just take the abuse and keep it moving and you dare not report it to anyone or you will retaliated, humiliated and harassed until an eternal brokenness. I’d love to cast my broadcast “Bullies On Blast with Host Aunt Delta Dawn” as being a part of your series for your show, maybe because at this point, those in fear will be more comfortable to call in as your show would be flacked in viewers lenses, and someone may feel more comfortable to call in and report real life office misconduct. Will you consider this in the affirmative, thank you for your consideration. But I can say this, not sure if my office antics would have been entertaining but it surely may have been jaw dropping horrifying to watch. Although, it may have been entertaining to see me chase the BULLY goon following me on the road when I turned it around, when I think about it today, it is hilarious. I certainly can provide real life content. Let me know, bulliesonblast@aol.com :o )
