Michael Should Listen to Darryl

Last night's episode, "The Deposition", is supposed to be the season finale, because of the writer's strike. It's a shame, because I am really looking forward to the next episode. I did not like how this one played out, especially looking at David, the CFO's smug little face. Michael said to David that he thought David was nice. Was Michael trying to tell David that he is an incompetent little jerk? If so, why not come right out and say it? Michael should listen to Darryl. In the episode, "The Negotiation", Darryl tells Michael that Dunder Mifflin is "exhibiting a pattern of inappropriate behavior" by underpaying loyal and hard-working employees like Michael and Darryl. Michael should use some leverage, seeing as how he has "an alliance" with Dwight, and Dwight is the best salesperson in the entire company. Michael should threaten to leave the company with Dwight if he does not get promoted to a corporate position. If he does not get what he wants, it does not matter anyways, because by Ryan's "own estimate, the company would be obsolete in five years."
