The Wisdom of Dilbert - Listen up, cappies!

[redstar2000]

This morning's Dilbert...

Young man speaking to Career Counselor...

"I love to hear myself talk"

"But I don't like it when people roll their eyes and go PHHHT."

"I'd like a job where people are forced to nod and smile while I babble"

"And I'd like to punish people for my own mistakes,"

The Career Counselor responds...

"I recommend a career in management. Just to be sure, I'm going to give you a management aptitude test."

Young man...

"Hey, I have an idea. Maybe I should pursue a career in management. Yes."

Career Counselor: "Congratulations! You have just passed the management aptitude test."

Hmm...

Glad to see you're on the forums (this early, assuming we're on the same time) redstar. Please check out the thread I just made...I could use some of your wisdom.

Dilbert is great.
There's many other example of truth in there. Post some others Redstar, if you get the chance.

Dilbert is a lesson on the human condition for modern workers in cube land, the same way Das Kapital is a lesson on the human condition for workers in an industrial society. Both of which are observations and condemnations.

Both of which are not primers or tools on how to manage a factory, business, or company.

I think Redstar is making the point that Dilbert is a primer on how not to run a business.

I stand corrected.

The same for Marx.

I've got a few good ones here.

Dilbert's co-worker to Dilbert while Dilbert stacks binders outside his cubicle...

IT LOOKS LIKE SOMEBODY IS USING BINDERS TO ILLEGALY INCREASE THE SIZE OF HIS CUBICLE

YOU THINK YOUR STATUS WILL INCREASE WITH YOUR CUBICLE SIZE, DON'T YOU! WELL, IT WON'T WORK!

Dilbert's boss to Dilbet

HERE'S A RAISE. I DON'T KNOW WHY.

Dilbets co-worker to another co-worker

PSSST. IS HE SEEING ANYBODY?
