It appears that 'Office' alum Melora Hardin is heading to a new workplace. According to Dealine, the actress will soon star in a new comedy pilot for TBS titled DO IT YOURSELF, set in a "big box home supply store." The project will be written by Walt Becker and Rob Long and directed by 'Two and a Half Men' helmer James Widdoes.

The multi-camera pilot follows Nick, "a 20-something laid-off math teacher who finds himself thrust into the blue collar world when he gets a job at that most American of retail institutions: the big box home supply store. Nick quickly becomes the de facto leader of his band of misfit coworkers while also figuring out ways to redefine what it means to be a teacher."

Hardin will portray Nick's boss Kate, described as "paranoid, irrational and drunk on power, in other words, a typical store manager."

The actress is best known for her role as Michael Scott's no-nonsense Dunder Mifflin supervisor, regional manager Jan Levenson. She recently guest starred on the new TBS comedy 'The Wedding Band.'
