Meredith despite her alcoholism and overall trashy lifestyle is one of the better people in the office. She is honest, willing to help, does not interfere into other people's business and content with who she is.
Kate Flannery is an underrated actress, specifically the parking lot scene in front of the rehab center. Also acting drunk (in general) is really hard to do convincingly.
I still tbink to myself most of the time Meredith’s drinking isn’t too catastrophic but also I would think someone who doesn’t have a drinking problem wouldn’t be so terrified of being taken to rehab right? Idk
Was hoping to see "Women's Day" when Jan was asking the ladies where they saw themselves in 5 years. Meredith blurted out "5 years sober", thought for a minute and said, "4 1/2" 🤣
Technically Michael WAS doing Toby's job with the intervention. She lit herself on fire. I gotta respect him for at least making an effort where no one else was going to.
Honestly, HR's job in that situation would be to haul Michael in for arranging the alcohol at a work function where an employee set themselves on fire. Not say that *should* be HR's job, but that is what would be the explicit responsibility of HR in that situation: managing employee safety and corporate liability. Good thing to remember in life in general - HR exists to protect the company, not the employees. If Meredith had come into work drunk, HR could step in, but - as Toby said - only address how it affected work performance. Getting drunk at a party off company provided alcohol? HR trying to punish an employee in anyway off of that would get the corporation hit with a lawsuit in a split second.
@@RLplusabunchofdumbnumbers, actually, Michael was correct. Because Meredith put herself and others in danger at a work-hosted event within a workplace building, Michael had to intervene.
@@hunter7593 Yeah, Toby isn't a real person. He's a fictional character on a fictional show played by an actor. And, yes, the person with actual experience in the corporate world is quite likely to know more about it than screenwriters.
@@NicoleCzarnecki You can "actually" you me all you want - an employee getting drunk off of alcohol provided by the company and given to her by the manager = the manager and company having massive liability. And that's to say nothing of the fact he literally assaulted her and kidnapped her trying to get her into rehab. Pro tip: Grabbing someone and physically dragging them through a parking lot and a building is not "being a good manager" or "doing HR's job" - it's **multiple** felonies.
Love Meredith but I don’t know how creed kept his job I am pretty sure he was out of his mind and really didn’t work he didn’t even know his job title or exactly what he did at Dunder Mifflin..
@@Blackman19498 ...and you know this how? Are you the writer of the show that knows what's the character supposed to be? Or are you one of those dudes that ALWAYS has to be right? Also, ''crazy'' is inappropriate term in the context, dear.
It's interesting how alcoholism is played for laughs when something like opioid addiction wouldn't be as funny. Alcohol is just too familiar. That's what makes it dangerous.
Well said. That's a huge problem how accepting society is towards alcohol. It just as easily ruins lives the same way other addictions do but because it's legality it's much more acceptable and you arent considered to have a problem when you're abusing alcohol.. when you do dope you're a junkie, when you drink like a fish you're cool and the life of the party.. pretty fucked up double standards.
As a supposed fire marshal, I gotta insult Dwight's use of the extinguisher. Probably ruined the food, wasted a whole extinguisher, probably a total of $500+ in damages. All for a fire that could be put out with a towel
@Laura H oh no really? I'll take back my overobservation than of an already hyperbolic situation. I didn't say this studio sucks ma'am, just making a lighthearted comment
If the building had burned down, because of what Meredith did, Toby would definitely be held civilly liable and criminally responsible because of his refusal to intervene. If nothing else, then, Michael took an absolutely-utilitarian and -deotonological approach in regard to Meredith.
3:30 - Kevin's story is probably the best of the intervention: he presented a simple but practical and real case in which Meredith's alcoholism affected her directly.
Either customer or supplier relations or something, right? Remember when she got in trouble for sleeping with that dude for discounted paper and steakhouse coupons lmaooo
You can mix as much alcohol as you want, the variety won't make a difference. It'll just taste bad. The percentages don't stack. A glass filled with 5 liqours with the same percent would be the same as a glass with one
@ET S absinthe is not inherently worse than other liqours, it just has the potential to reach a higher alcohol percentage. No shelf liqour would be that bad tho, it's all off Markey home brewed stuff
i wish they had more Meredith and much much less Erin. I'm of the camp that feels Erin's character and forced horrible acting, single handedly ruined the show. It was ODD that Erin was added when they could have done so much with other characters such as Meredith - and Kevin, Stanley, Phyliss, and Creed for that matter. Maybe the Erin actress was married to a producer and that's how she got on the show.

You’re so right. She is one of the least judgmental people in the office and seems easy to work with.
she's very supportive of her entrepreneur son
And she’s kinda cute. I just realized it. She’s got this Emma Stone kinda thing goin on…
She also understood Pam

He works at a dog food company.
He acts like that so people will never suspect him, hardened criminals are smart. He's clearly one
He pretends to be loopy but he's not

It's interesting how alcoholism is played for laughs when something like opioid addiction wouldn't be as funny.
Alcohol is just too familiar. That's what makes it dangerous.
it was pretty funny with cricket in Sunny, just depends on how you do it
its a scene from a show not an ethical debate
That’s why it’s best to not even go near alcohol or become normalized to it
there are plenty of comedies poking fun at junkies

Meredith and Creed hands-down are my favorite Office characters.

michael dragging meredith to rehab should've been the scene they referenced in beautiful boy
Cringe.
This is a lot funnier to watch now that i’m sober and out of rehab for alcoholism lmao
Congrats on being sober! I hope that's going well for you still!
Did some body shots of myself......
Great collection of Meredith The Drunk bits. Her calling the contents of her car trunk her valuables and collectables was priceless.❤️
I don't know why but I find Meredith's expressions in this one really cute!!😁

Supplier relations
I'm not a drinker so I have no idea. Could anyone please tell me if the drink Michael made at 0:13 is enough to kill a horse
It's not, though two in a row would be real strong. And disgusting.
You can mix as much alcohol as you want, the variety won't make a difference. It'll just taste bad. The percentages don't stack. A glass filled with 5 liqours with the same percent would be the same as a glass with one

Technically the "one of everything" should only have one pack of Splenda. Just my .02

Anyone knows the song 6:54? Find no source, even not on reddit.
