Stanley Hudson (Leslie David Baker) is The Office’s cantankerous old man. Every office has one. He just wants to do his job and go home. If the workplace is giving out free soft pretzels, he is there.
What makes Stanley so great is his dry sense of humor. He doesn’t take crap from anyone and will deliver deadpan sarcasm to anyone in his way. That said, he sometimes loses his cool, leading to hilarious freakouts.
