Chapter One: Prologue
If you had asked five year old Harry Potter what he wanted to be when he grew up, he would have told you that he wanted to be a salesman. Though this might be an odd choice for one so young, it was what he wanted to be.
It all started when Harry's uncle, Vernon, had a "bring your kid to work day". Vernon Dursley was a drill salesman for a company called Grunnings. He was also terrible at his job, and even had a sexual harassment lawsuit against him. In fact the only reason he still had a job there was because his uncle owned the company. Anyway, Petunia absolutely refused to leave the freak alone in the house. After all, who knows what kind of state their house would be in when they got back? So Vernon reluctantly dragged Harry along, and as soon as they arrived, he quickly swept off with a whining Dudley in tow leaving little Harry in the lobby to look around in awe. Instead of getting upset and crying like a normal five year old, a calm and collected Harry Potter walked to the elevator and pushed a random button. That is how he spent the rest of the day, wandering from floor to floor, watching normal people doing their jobs. He always made sure to stay out of sight, and never make a sound, he was good at being invisible. And at the end of the day, when Harry was lying in the darkness of his cupboard, he wished he could be normal too.
Even after Harry had found out about the wizarding world he still wanted to be a salesman. While in comparison to magic it might seem too boring, it was perfect for Harry. All he had ever wanted was to be normal, and after having a madman vying for his death, a little boredom sounded wonderful. So that is exactly what he did. After Voldemort was defeated through luck and hard work, Harry had little keeping him in the wizarding world. With all of Dumbledore's manipulations, Harry had only three true friends, Luna, Dean, and surprisingly Blaise Zabini. They all decided to change their names and leave the country. So with the help of the goblins they all moved to Stamford, Connecticut, and the newly named Harry Evans quickly found his dream job at a paper company called Dunder Mifflin. This is where our story begins.
A/N: Okay so The Office is one of my favorite shows, so I tried to find a good crossover but I was disappointed. Then I got this idea stuck in my head and it just won't leave until I write it down! This is only the prologue, but I hope you enjoy it! Please let me know what you think or any suggestions for pranks! XD
