Betty by Gary Delainey and Gerry Rasmussen for July 06, 2012

Alex took off from work early.

Weirdness.

That happens to lots of older workers who have to train their replacements. It’s a good bet there’ll be sabbotage!

Nice to see Alex can separate her work from her personal life. Unfortunately lacks the insight into the possibility Betty may not be ready to do that separation just yet. Ha Ha Alex…she hasn’t a clue has she :)

Wow…with friends like these…

The fourth panel was censored due to naughty language…

She better have a really good reason (like an incredible new job) or else she is totally clueless and tactless.

friendship put to the test or cluelessness?

you’ve got to be kidding me!

I had to fire my sister once, (she was terrible, and she knew it) I got her a job with another company starting the next day…….

Separating your friend from the job with no hard feeling is hard.

O_o

Unless Alex’s next sentence is “I realized that what they did to you was complete BS, so I just quit in protest” I don’t see this possibly going well.

I agree. She better be about to impart some good news or else.

KILL,KILL,KILL ALEX!!!!! the economy is bad enough for Betty.

Beeahtch@@@@

@richardwebsterI don’t blame you. You get laid off because there’s no work but he wants you to train his son for the same job there’s no work for? Sounds fishy to me.

I think Alex has other plans…. which may be good for Betty and the Slug family. Let’s hope that they do not have to move from Edmonton….

Alex is only the messenger. I think it’s nice of her to offer Betty a ride. It’d be even nicer if she’d offer her a white chocolate mocha and chocolate mousse cheesecake. A little (or lot!) chocolate wouldn’t hurt about now.

This is one time I’d kill the messenger and not with kindness….

Won’t be long until you fall from your Ivory Tower, Alix. Have fun on your way down!

How condescending of Alix. However, after Alix initiates the conversation once Betty gets into the car [if she does], after a while, whatever Alix says, Betty should tell her [Alix] “It’s just a question of time before you lose your job. You know that you will lose your job, don’t you?”

Alix will wonder how Betty has this supposed insider info. Where did she get this from???

Alix may not reply but trust me, it will always be in the back of her mind and when she does get fired, she’ll remember the “car conversation” and wonder how Betty knew . . . .

Betty will already be writing her “best selling novel [??]” and Alix will be desperate IN THIS ECONOMY looking for work.

Is Alix married, does anyone know? At least Betty has her husband to help financially. The kid could work too. Did Betty get a severance package / unemployment insurance??

I know the creators will take care of Betty & her family. Alix is cement shooze and living wit da fishes, Tessio & Clamenza told me!!
