Toby Flenderson is the former HR representative for the Scranton branch of Dunder Mifflin. He is soft-spoken and generally well-liked by his co-workers, but - for reasons fairly clear but never overtly stated - intensely hated by branch manager Michael Scott.

At the end of Season Four, Toby resigns, saying he is moving to Costa Rica. He had a huge crush on Pam Beesly for years but never told her.

David, here it is. My philosophy is basically this. And this is something that I live by. And I always have. And I always will. Don't ever, for any reason, do anything to anyone, for any reason, ever, no matter what. No matter... where. Or who, or who you are with, or, or where you are going, or... or where you've been... ever. For any reason, whatsoever.
