They tried dating but Mr. Madigan made a rule against co-workers dating, so they decided to stay friends. Until, Jimmy started to hang with the new mail room girl at Mad Style.

They are now currently boyfriend and girlfriend. Her catchphrase is "You said what now?!", although throughout the series other characters say that as well. She also tells many unusual stories about her family. True isn't a very good cook but is convinced that everybody loves her cooking.

) is one of True's best friends, they met at space camp. Lulu is incredibly smart in school but is known not to think things through. One of her best subjects is math. She became True's assistant in the first episode after True fired the previous one, Cricket. It turns out she is a good stock investor buying one company which was then merged to another company and the stock prices tripled, and investing in a company called "Glertokk" (a company she picked because the funny name made her smile) which went up thirty stock points a day later.

He held his eyes open for 40 minutes and then passed out. Despite not actually working at Mad Style, he is often found in True's office. He gets a job to work as their website editor (a person who makes their web pages and updates it every few days). He also mentions he has keys to most of the offices. He also was Amanda's assistant, only Amanda didn't know. His secret was that he broke Max's horse statue. If he has his eyes closed for more than five seconds, he falls asleep.

) is another VP for Women's Wear and True's frenemy. She is constantly trying to get True fired, and sometimes picks on her. Amanda wants to turn True's office into a gym or closet. On some occasions, however, True and Amanda may work together on things, with Amanda even giving True advice. Amanda seems to be a complete "suck up" to their boss Max, and is the only person in Mad Style who calls him Max. She is allergic to hazelnuts. Usually because of her plans of getting True fired backfire, many unfortunate things happen to her, such as her dress falling off while she is modeling it, and having to feed True and her friends ice cream in a chicken suit. In the episode "True Matchmaker", it is revealed that she (as well as Oscar) is addicted to a soap opera called Space Plantation. In the episode when Max turned the building into a jungle retreat, it is revealed that her secret was that she broke Max's horse statue. She usually snorts like a pig when she is laughing. She was engaged to baseball player Brock Champion in the episode "True Valentine", however they did not get married in the series finale "Mystery in Peru", due to Amanda reverting back to a little girl after falling in a fountain of youth
.
) is Max's nephew. He is the mailman at Mad Style, and seems to have a rather unhealthy obsession with mail, postage, stamps, and all mail-related things. True has a major crush on him. It is seen he likely returns True's feelings for him and likes her as more than just a friend, as he has helped her multiple times. Despite their feelings, they can not date each other due to company rules. Those rules were later overturned and they began in the latter part of season 2. Jimmy also in a band called Fire & Ice (formerly known as Diarrhea), though it was later revealed that the band split up due to a bad performance. In the episode "True Drive", it was revealed by Jimmy's astronaut father that his birth name is actually Tiberius. He was recurring in 13 episodes in season 1, and appears as a main character in season 2. Amell is only credited in the episodes he appears in.

of Mad Style. He is the one who tells True when she is late for a meeting. He is very calm and gives good advice. He always seems to know what everyone is doing. He is always making lemon squares, which True and the others enjoy. He, like Amanda, is obsessed with the soap opera Space Plantation. His secret is that he breaks Mr. Madigan's horse statue almost every day, and replaces it with another one each time that happens. He has a sister named Kreuflva and a brother that is the receptionist at The Pentagon
. In "The Wedding", it is shown that Oscar has good hearing, being able to hear True and Lulu whispering from a little distance. He has been a vegetarian for 18 years, but will eat anything that Jimmy grills, even if it has meat in it. Like Lulu, his last name has never been revealed. He appeared in all 26 episodes in Season 1 and appears as a main character in Season 2, but starting with the second season, Butler is only credited in the opening credits of episodes he appears in.
) is the CEO of Mad Style. He hired True when he saw that she had tweaked his clothing into something she liked. He seems to have a big hatred of Kopelman, possibly because he laughed at one of his earlier designs back in the 80's on live television. His secret was that he thought about selling Mad Style when his horse statue broke. He marries his girlfriend, Doris, at the end of season 1. Max was a recurring character in season 1 and is now a main character as of season 2. Proops is credited in the opening credits only for the episodes he appears in. In the series finale, he retires due to his wife, Doris expecting a child, and lets True take over as CEO.
) is a worker at Mad Style who Max (and sometimes random people and coworkers) dislikes for no reason. The main reason that Max dislikes Kopelman is possibly that he laughed at one of Max's designs in 1982 or 1983. Even though he never talks, he's always accused of doing something wrong and is often told to leave the room, or go home. Kopelman has a nephew that looks just like him that only appeared in the episode "House Party". Max told him to leave the party's meeting. Kopelman loves to eat food, and he is somewhat always near food or associated with food, particularly candy. In the episode "True's New Assistant", he is supposedly attacked by Max's white tiger, which was drawn to him by the smell of meat from the sandwich that Kopelman was eating. Thankfully, he survived, due to him being seen in later episodes. Kopelman bought a new bow tie in the episode "Flirting with Fame", and he seems to like it very much. In all his appearances on the series, Dan Kopelman, who also serves as one of the show's writers and executive producers, is credited simply as "Kopelman". In the series finale, he becomes the only adult employee at Mad Style, due to True running the company after Max's retirement.
) is True's strict teacher. Her first appearance was in "Testing True". In "True Drama", she says that she's the janitor, lunch lady, and is in the Drama Club. In different episodes, every time someone misbehaves, she says that they have detention. She also briefly dated Mr. Jameson, True's science teacher in "True Valentine". She even gave Mr. Madigan detention once after he swallowed True's flash drive in "My Boss Ate My Homework". True and Lulu imply that she can "do anything".
) is the school librarian that True introduces to Max. She falls in love with Max. Max proposes to her later in the first season but Doris initially declines his proposal, though states she wants him to propose to her when on a lawnchair on the side of the roof, but he declines and tries to make a mannequin that looks him do it but it falls over so he has to do it. Max eventually chooses to propose the way Doris wanted him to, but accidentally flies in the air prematurely because the balloons attached to the lawn chair end up lifting him in the air. Max and Doris had their wedding in zoo. Her cousin is Al Gore
. She can't see without glasses though she has been seen without them on and being able to see. She moves every six months to a different house so she doesn't feel cramped in one place. She does this with other things too. She can also be hyper, as seen in the episode "The Wedding".
) is another best friend of True's. The two have known each other since they were little, but hadn't seen each other for awhile since she started working at Mad Style. In the episode "House Party", Shelly says to True that she's changed since she worked at Mad Style and that it seems like she's too busy to hang out with her anymore. True tells her that she still the same person that she's always been and, after Mr. Madigan tells her to cut back on work after it interferes too much with her social life, she and Shelly reconnect. Shelly is also invited to True's Slumber party in "Pajama Party", where she discusses that she had a dream about her and Mikey J. dating, which makes Lulu angry. Lulu tries to wonder why Shelly has feelings about her boyfriend, but Shelly just tells Lulu that it was only a dream and she doesn't have those feelings for Mikey J. In the episode "Class Election", True and Shelly team up and run for Class president and Vice president for their class, against Mikey J./Lulu and Kyle Sandbox/Kelsey.
) is another employee at Mad Style. He doesn't talk that much though but seems to agree with True a lot. In "Amanda Hires a Pink", when Ryan goes through the vents and ends up at Hibbert's office(he calls Hibbert a cheese-bag).
