Working Daze by John Zakour and Scott Roberts for December 18, 2023

I really like Dana.

I’m pretty sure that’s a “no”, Rita!

I would love to see Dana get a job on Capital Hill.

Surprised that hasn’t happened to Rita before now.

Don’t rub that bottle until after NewYear!

Maybe Dana could poof her to Get A Clue.

Is Rita a type of Sheldon Cooper?

No ship in the bottle.

Dana is no genie in a bottle. Then again, neither is Rita.

Now hang that bottle on a Christmas tree where the family has a cat.

It seems to me that having a subordinate doing a manager’s personal projects like this is an absolute no-no. Is this common in the private sector? (Where the “manager” is actually the owner of the company, I suppose that would be different, as long as the employee is getting paid.) It would be the same as stealing from the company! I always worked in government jobs and as far as I knew, no one would dare to ever do such a thing on “company time”. Heck, I even felt wary about dropping personal mail in the outgoing official mail, or receiving personal packages at the office (often a necessity for UPS or FedEx deliveries, this usually being in fairly remote or rural areas).

There are times when I wish I had Dana’s powers.
