    Say what you will about this guy, Robert california is straight up no bs gangsta. James spader does 100% percent to the role. Maybe people hate him because they expect him to be funny like michael but the fact that he’s nothing like him is what makes the show genius. Its true nothing can replace michael scott but robert california is an awesome character and one worth remembering as he is

      When I first saw him he seemed to be too "bossy" or arrogant. Though, now looking at him in more depth, he has some fair points. I like the Jim's comment at 2:33 .

    7:10 One of the most important moments we can learn from. When confronted with beat around the bush speech, let it the person talk their speech and counter or clarify what you actually said and elaborate. No defending yourself, just pure truth. May be harsh but it lets others know what it is you actually meant to say.

    Altough the whole purpose of Robert California was to have a BOSS who is a man of confidence and an actual alpha male, I think it's brilliant that the creators showed us that even this guy can be fragile with his seemingly small, but actually significant breakdown after his divorce. After his wife leaves him, he experiences how it feels (probably for the first time of his life) when his natural charm just stops functioning. You can see Robert getting slowly but surely more and more anxious as he tries to fake confidence, but others, like his own subordinates, who should see him as their superior leader can see it.
    I wonder sometimes what happened to this character after he left the show. I think it's not impossible that he even commited suicide at some point during season nine as he could never recover from his divorce and never become the predator he once was.
