You have been retroactively laid off. In addition to clearing out your desk, you need to write a check to Veeble for the wages he accidentally paid you.
I feel your pain. Cost cutting measures can be rough, especially for those who are going tolose their jobs and now have to figure out new ways to pay their bills. I’m sure that you you will sleep well at night hough. If not, try counting those pink slips over and over and over…….
I had my therapy dog in the hospital today and one of the perks of her job is that I get to see pictures of a lot of dogs and hear stories about even more dogs. A couple mentioned that they had a dog named “Brutus.” I said, “Oh! There is a comic with a character by that name!” They already knew – we had a happy chat about “The Born Loser.” That is what we do. Their Brutus was a beagle. My dog is a beagle, so I assume that is why they mentioned him.

It is sweet that in 2024 he still takes the time to personally hand write each pink slip.

Try thinking of them all as deposit slips.

Is this boss lying? Because in panel three, just like Pinocchio, his nose turned completely white!

What happened to bossman’s nose in the third panel? I guess admitting a mistake was more than he could handle.

Having a boss like Veeblefester would encourage one to start their own business!

I’m sure he can find a sympathetic ear from his fellow 1%ers at the country club.

Hey, if one of those is meant for Brutus, maybe he’ll stop being a born loser. Nah, ain’t gonna happen.

Simple solution to the “wrong year” thing: On New Year’s Day, sit down and write the new year 100 times. After that, it won’t be a problem at all.
