RIP. He was active on X detailing his impending death. His condition deteriorated rapidly over the last week.

This strip epitomizes corporate life, not just for engineers, but dealing with corporate life and bad bosses and coworkers.

Before anyone goes anywhere with this, have a listen. People who make mistakes can and do redeem themselves.

Sort of timeless in that way, like the movie Office Space. I still have some of my favorite Dilbert strips hanging up.

RIP. Dilbert was a must read back in the day in corporate America. I had a few favorites posted to the cube walls.
