Can't forget Dilbert.
The Far Side. Love the warped, dry humor.
Dilbert. Working in an office, I can relate to so many of them.
Peanuts. Classic.
Calvin and Hobbes. Another classic.
I hear you - at the hospital I am positive they are always "spying" on my every activity - ooooooh - that did not sound too paranoid, did it?This is my all time favorite Dilbert comic strip. I had this in a small frame on the wall of my cubicle at the police department. It's perfect. The admin division was always sending out surveys to all personnel wanting input on "how administration could better serve the police department employees". The surveys would come to your police department email and you had to submit them back as an email. There was always a disclaimer that the surveys were "completely anonymous" but anything coming to YOUR email can be tracked back to YOUR email, especially when the proprietary email system software is owned by the police department...lol. Anyway, sometimes during the year when the Chief spoke at a get together or at the yearly employee banquet when one of the other admin captains spoke they would make reference to the positive input about how things were going at the department and that the survey feedback about how things were ran was generally very positive. A rueful chuckle would run thru the crowd when these comments were made and I don't know if admin honestly believed we were all being honest on these surveys or if somewhere in the back of their minds they knew that we were all just telling them what they wanted to hear in order to not get hassled...lol Anyway, the day I came across this Dilbert strip, I saved it right off the bat.

We used to have a running joke at the PD. Anytime there was some major policy shift or marching order we received that we all hated, we'd joke about "Hey we COULD submit a complaint about this on the online survey".......I don't think anyone ever did though. It wouldn't have been a good career move even though it was "anonymous"...lolI hear you - at the hospital I am positive they are always "spying" on my every activity - ooooooh - that did not sound too paranoid, did it?
I save my Google searches to do at home now - the only think I look up now is medical terminology
- not that I blame administration - I hear about people going on Facebook at work or watching YouTube videos - how do they ever get any work done?
I remember walking through the working spaces of a local tech outfit, and Dilbert was considered pretty much a company newsletter.
I used to do that as well!Oh! Blast from the past!
