The American version of The Office turns 15 this month, and to celebrate, USDish is offering someone $1,000 to binge watch the sitcom.
One lucky fan will have nine days to watch 15 hours of the mockumentary (roughly 45 episodes—or five 20-minute installments per day).
It’s not all fun and games, though: As part of the coveted gig, you’ll need to take meticulous notes on the common tropes that occur in each episode.
For instance, how many times does Stanley roll his eyes at the camera? And how often does Phyllis talk about Bob Vance from Vance Refrigeration?

“The goal is to help us understand how often sitcoms repeat popular tropes,” according to USDish. “We’ll provide you with general guidelines to track your experience, but in true Kelly Kapoor fashion, we also want you to share your unfiltered opinions and reactions on social media.”
If you’re as obsessed with The Office as Michael is with Ryan, apply online by Monday, March 16 at 7 p.m. ET to earn more than $1,000 cold hard cash.
Other benefits include themed swag (which may or may not involve a Dundie award, “World’s Best Boss” mug, Jell-O, and a stapler) as well as a Netflix gift card*.
Add a video submission to boost your chances.
The competition is open only to U.S. residents aged 18 or older; you do not need to be a USDish customer to apply. A winner will be notified within five days of the closing date.
Are you obsessed with “The Office”? (via USDish)
In October, DISH Network offered one (un)lucky fan $1,300 to watch 13 films based on Stephen King’s most spine-chilling novels.
To help log details (What’s your heart rate during scary scenes? Which movie is your favorite or least favorite? Are you watching alone or sharing the popcorn with a friend?), the company issued a survival kit—including a Fitbit activity tracker.
* Ironic, considering The Office will ditch Netflix in 2021 for exclusive play on NBCUniversal’s upcoming streaming service.
