The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for December 14, 2021

He keeps him employed so he ALWAYS has a scapegoat to blame.

At least one thing is for sure Brutus, you won’t be receiving a visit from Krampus this year!!

/SHMIRK/

Setting the record straight

No need to criticize when you get it right the first time.

Come on now, You can agree and each take half of the blame.

Thornapple is his own worst critic, Chief is his worst nightmare.

When Brutus criticises himself, hopefully he learns and grows. That makes him his own best critic.

Veeblefester doesn’t know about Mother Gargle.

I don’t remember seeing Brutus being self critical. He always seems to take his failures in stride. As my mother often said, “Don’t cry over split milk” and “That’s water under the bridge.” Brutus doesn’t seem to be critical of anything or anyone. What criticism exists, is borne by others, especially Veeblefester and Brutus’ mother-in-law.

well, he could be right… but lets see if he’s wrong first. :)

Yeah it’s not worth it to cry over spilled milk. However once at my marriage night I cried when I dropped a glass of Château Rothschild. At $1,000 a bottle, that was $200 smashed onto the floor!! Just like that, snap fingers!

Man’s worst critic is always his wife. Gay community has 2 husband’s, does that mean no critics, then what about 2 wives..

Last panel, Brutus is giving us the Jim from “The Office” look.

Oldie but goody! Enjoy the Holidays everyone!

So Brutus’ job is to give his boss something to complain about. He is a very good employee by those standards!

I had a boss who was very hands on equipment. If someone helping him made a mistake it was ok. Never yelled at or blamed anybody. But if he screwed up, a tirade of f bombs went on for 10 minutes, yelling at himself.

Mr. Veeblefester is too much!

In Brutus’s case, I believe that he is correct. He’s like me in that regard. I’m tough in myself when I screw up. However, don’t ever disagree with the guy that signs your paycheck…..

Brutus you should know you can never best Veeblefester at anything.

I once tried, “It’s OK, Mom. I’m sorry and I’ve already given myself a lecture.” :)

Spoken like a true boss…

I bet Veeblefester and Mother Gargle do a tag team on giving Brutus a hard time. I suspect they message each other when Brutus is on his way to work or on his way home.
