Working Daze by John Zakour and Scott Roberts for August 12, 2021

Don’t worry, you will rise to the level of your incompetence.

Where’s Rita’s water bottle?!

A serious moment of Rita’s past. Poor thing, she looks so sad♡. She and Norm seem to be good friend here, more than now.

The first part of her answer… replace “girls” with “boys” and that is I.

So much in this cartoon! The first part of Rita’s answer is touching, especially about her daughters. The second half is somewhat unrelated and more vintage Rita.

I may be the only one, but I like her 80s hair. Those shoulder pad, though…….

As for her missing water bottle, I’m guessing (and only guessing) that this was the era of water fountains and water coolers, before water bottles everywhere became a thing?

And finally … Norm! Is that THE Norm?

You brought back the hair!

A LONG way back.

What is crossing her forehead ?

I had a marriage like that, two kids as well, but a boy and a girl. I never wanted to rise higher than senior software engineer, which I already was. Raising my two kids after the divorce was more fun, challenging, and rewarding than software engineering, which I loved. Metaphorically, everything important I learned about life I learned from my kids. I had tried management, but leading people wasn’t, still isn’t, my best skill, and definitely not my joy.

Thanks for the throwback/flashback.

Well, now she’s a VP and stupidvises everything in her division.

Rita had RHS back in the day.

Love the old Norm, and WHAT HAIR, talk about the BIG 80’s (even if it isn’t actually)

Where Rita is concerned, the sky is no limit. It’s just how many, how far andwho she can kick to the curb.in the process!

She could get a job in a gun powder plant where you’re always sure of a raise…

Wow. Now that’s a hairdo!

Cool flashback here.

Thank you, scottartist, for the feedback x

Wow, Norm was a looker back then

Wow, Norm with hair, and Rita with LOTS of hair (we’ve seen the hairstyle in the past, of course, but I don’t remember it ever being so much)!
