The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for July 01, 2024

“Nope” is the first word in the chief’s dictionary.

I’m sure Brutus can get a better job…HaHaHa , Sorry Brutus

The chief can be brutal with Brutus when saying he can’t have a raise.

Maybe Brutus should sick Mother Gargoyle on the chief. She’d might to it to help her daughter and grandchild.

the Chief needs a good laugh…

What’s in the water? It seems to wash out Brutus’ memory.

Spring? More like grape shot out of a cannon.

Unfortunately, you’re right.

If I remember correctly from a Philosophy class, Aristotle said something along the lines that “Hope is a waking dream.” If so, I do desire that our hero never awakens from it.

oh, I’m sure spring is eternal alright… it’s the platform your trying to reach may seem out of reach regardless on how eternal that spring is. :J

Rancid Veeblefester’s reputation precedes him .

Dagwood lite.

I see that so often about asking for a raise in the US. Don’t you guys get yearly salary increases? Do you have to ask to get one?

It’s nothing more than a feeling…a feeling that holds no basis in fact.

Brutus just made the Chief’s day. Nothing like turning down a raise request early on a Monday to start off the week.

Maybe today Rancid is in a good mood for a big raise. On Monday? And since when?

Unfortunately Arnie has a better grip on reality than Brutus. To channel yesterday’s strip, batten down the hatches. Hurricane’s a brewin’ and I don’t mean Hattie!

The Chief will be singing

Na na,

Na na na na,

Hey hey hey,

Goodbye!!!

The next thing you hear will maniacal laughter.

same story in many jobs

For Brutus, hope springs infernal.
