Comic Strip Week: Dilbert
Today is the first day of seven dedicated to comic strips. I'll be presenting some of the comic strips I enjoy the most throughout the week. All of them can be read online, so you don't have to worry about finding a newspaper to catch them.
Today's comic strip is Dilbert, the cubicle-dwelling engineer drawn by Scott Adams. I used to say that this was the comic strip for engineers. My dad used to buy the books and I would spend hours reading them, even if I couldn't understand half of the jokes (I still hadn't developed enough industry lingo). Although I probably enjoy older strips more than new ones, Scott Adams still manages to make me laugh often. The strip has an excellent cast of characters, from the pointy-haired boss to the lazy co-worker and from the gullible intern to the dog bent on conquering the world. If you're looking for workplace humor, this strip is a must. Go to the strip's site at www.dilbert.com and subscribe to get this strip daily in your e-mail!
