The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for November 13, 2024

Don’t make too big a deal about it, chief.

Brutus seems happy to work for someone as greedy as Rancid.

At least Brutus is content, how about you Rancid?

Seems to me that “unassuming” means you have an open mind to everything. But what do I know? I’m just assuming that.

I’d rather be unassuming. After all Felix Unger taught me what happens when you assume.

That tune he’s singing (Humming? IDK) is from Pinocchio, “An Actor’s Life for Me!”

Brutus is in his happy place…

You’re doing alright Brutus .

Brutus comes from good stock. Rancid – well Rancid is rotten.

at least he’s enjoying his work even though he may not do a good job at it. :J

Brutus is wonderfully content with his lot in life. OK maybe not a lot but his little. Which puts him head and shoulders above Veebs who we can pretty confidently state will never be satisfied with what he has (and which is probably why he feels the constant need to belittle others).

Hang in there Brutus, “Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.” Matthew 5:5.

Jealousy!!

The meek shall inherit the earth.

Seeing Brutus happy like that makes Rancid think he Rancid is not doing his job of making the workplace miserable.

Good to know one’s limitations and more important to accept those limitations and to exercise to the fullest those gifts you possess……

The boss will never experience the simple pleasures of life. Good for you Brutas.

“Hi diddle Dee Dee an actors life for me! Hi diddle soo… you sleep till after two!” Pinocchio?

And yet, Rancid thinks enough of Brutus to keep him.

Hi diddle dee dee while you work.

Never argue with a smile and a song, when you wear a frown all year long.

i used to hum in the office too…usually Elvis tunes

I suspect his mind is assuming.

Brutus should be singing Mana Mana from the Muppets ;)

Broom Hilda should fly over to this strip and introduce her broomstick to Thorney’s boss’s posterior.
