The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for November 26, 2024

The chief would’ve given Brutus a dime but that would’ve meant digging deeper.

The work to print the check cost more than the amount.

Would that amount be – before OR after taxes!!!

o-O

I would cash it!

Don’t spend it all in one place.

All this for the Kluck account? Kluck this!

In Veeblefester’s dictionary, “bonus incentive” is an oxymoron…

I’m surprised the Chief would over pay him like that.

Very. Bad. Man? Oops, wrong cartoon, sorry.

When you realize that “bonus” is actually two words…..

that could be a down payment on a cup of coffee…

Remember this from Christmas Vacation – "Mrs. Helen Shirley : You didn’t! Well, of all the cheap lousy ways to save a buck!

SWAT Commander : That’s pretty low, mister! If I had a rubber hose, I would beat you…".

My ‘Take-Home-Pay’ doesn’t take me home.

Hand it Back to Rancid, Brutus and say – Merry Christmas Chief.

It didn’t seem like it was worth it, but it did make cents.

I had a boss who thought $5 an hour bought you a great hard working dedicated employee. I told him we spend what he takes home weekly at the casino when we go. This was 20 years ago but it still wasn’t any kind of money when you considered Uncle Sam taking 1/4 of it than car expenses and rent.

He’s pathetic as they come! Sensa facé

And that, my friends, is what is called a back-handed compliment… ッ

Use that as a portion of your Linked-In premium account.

he likes to mess with him, doesn’t he… well, maybe mess with him may not be the right words to use. but he still enjoys making him mad for his efforts. :j

Rancid couldn’t give Brutus his spare change ? At least Brutus can take the check home and frame it

Taxes were that high?

My first reaction would be to say keep it. You need it more than l do. AND don’t expect free overtime from me ever again. However, first reactions are usually not wise to follow .Could be a test; the money might be included in a Christmas Bonus; or as management works without overtime pay, he may be up for that next promotion. Naaaaaaa. Just take the check and say, “Thank you sir, may l have another”…….

Brutus might see the 11 cents as progress. What does he usually get for overtime?

It’ll cost more than that to process the check…

Such generosity O benevolent one .

I’m surprised he has any employees left.

The Chief is having quite a week so far. At Brutus’s expense. Der Schadenfeuhrer strikes again.

I’d would quit and start driving semi’s! The pay is a whole lot better and no one looking over my shoulders

Tear it up in front of him.

The sheet of paper is worth more than his pay. I’ll bet they withheld social security.

If it was the Kluck account, I’m guessing Brutus’ bonus was chicken feed.

Wish I were getting my boss’ bonus for all the work I’m doing rn

Chief, you dumb kluck

He needs another 62 cents to buy postage stamp.
