Background: Michael Scott (played by Steve Carell) is the obnoxious manager on the hit TV show The Office. Michael, the manager of Dunder Mifflin's office in Scranton, Pennsylvania, is known for his inability to see his own faults.
In an episode from Season 3, Michael Scott is invited to interview for a position at Dunder-Mifflin corporate headquarters in New York City. During the interview with David Wallace, Dunder Mifflin's Chief Financial Officer, the following conversation ensues:
David Wallace: So, let me ask you a question right off the bat. What do you think are your greatest strengths as a manager?
Michael Scott: Why don't I tell you what my greatest weaknesses are? I work too hard. I care too much. And sometimes I can be too invested in my job.
David: Okay. And your strengths?
Michael: Well, my weaknesses are actually … strengths.
David: Oh. Yes. Very good.
Michael: Thank you.
