NBC’s The Office went off the air more than 13 years ago. The employees from Dunder Mifflin long left their paper days behind and moved on to bigger, and maybe even better, things. Leslie David Baker, who played the office curmudgeon Stanley Hudson, traded his iconic eye rolls to ham it up for his newest gig. According to an Instagram post, Leslie now owns a Honey Baked Ham Co store in Sherman Oaks, California. He celebrated the location’s grand opening with a new ad.

Leslie David Baker Looks Pretty Darn Happy
Of course, we know Stanley Hudson was just a character Leslie David Baker played on The Office, but his new role with Honey Baked Ham Co sure seems to suit him. He told NBC Los Angeles that he decided to open the store with business partner Tony Vinnie after realizing there wasn’t a location nearby.
“I came home one day and was complaining about waiting in the long line at another store,” he said. “You don’t have to go get your meats one place, your vegetables somewhere else, your salads another place, your desserts, you can feed your family and make one stop.”
Fans loved seeing Leslie David Baker smiling on TV again.
“Perfect place to have it ! Easy parking , very convenient. Can’t wait to swing by ! Congrats!” A follower commented on Instagram.
