    He loves to see the look of despair cross their face. You don’t get that from an e-mail.

    The punch line should’ve been that he always relished giving good news in person. If he enjoys it, then to him it would be good.

    In this case killing the messenger might be a good thing.

    Panel one, something you don’t want to start a conversation with your boss with, on this Thursday morning.

    Veeblefester likes the personal approach as it gives him the opportunity to watch the doomed employee plead and cry.

    I worked for a man who loved giving bad news so much, he couldn’t give good news without making it sound bad. He’d say sternly, “Meg! Get into my office right away!” I’d go in, worried, and he’d say “here’s your bonus cheque.” He’d try to isolate people so he could get the reaction of (hopeful) terror from as many people as possible.

    Ah, yes, Bossman, the Trumpian method. I wonder if it weren’t for the meager pay you hand out, if there’d be any workers at all. Not even, Brutus.

    He’s old fashioned in that. I sort of like a person that says things to a person directly. However, when someone admits that they like to pull wings off of flies, he’s got problems and this guy has them. I guess the good thing is that he won’t stab you in the back, but he will stab you…..

    Of course he does – on brand! If only Rancid had a Snidely Whiplash type mustache to twirl when he said that! Bwahawhawhaw.

    Years ago, during a layoff, you found out you were booted when your badge didn’t work to get inside. By the time my shift rolled around, a few women were standing at the door, afraid to swipe their badge.
