Try this:

[root@fs home]# chown -R michael.office append
[root@fs home]# chmod -R 770 append

smb.conf:
[append]
path = /home/append
valid users = +office
writeable = yes
write list = +office
admin users = michael
hide unreadable = yes
create mode = 200
directory mode = 770
force group = office

I can't see any reason why that config won't do exactly what you want it
to.

If it still doesn't work, you need to start narrowing the problem down -
so logon to the console of the server first as michael. Can you cd in to
/home/append? If so, can you touch a new file? Repeat the process for a
different user in the office group. What is the result? As root, what is
the contents of that folder now? If that all works, the POSIX
permissions are working fine so it makes it a Samba problem. Visa versa
then the POSIX permissions are the ones to look at.
