Dilbert — Scott Adams

No one minds if work intrudes on their weekend as long as it’s Dilbert-related content! Get ahead of the Monday blues with Sunday’s best laughs.Everyone who’s in business, works for a business, or even just gives others the business is amazed: Scott Adams never lacks for yet another way to lampoon the corporate world. It’s not that Adams is anti-business. He’s more anti-bad boss than anything. But poor management practices, the effects of bad decisions, and what it all means for the average worker add up to more comedic material than even the man who created Dilbert can tame.Since Dilbert was first syndicated in 1989, Adams has built a following that would be the envy of any corporate sales and marketing team. His work not only generates howls from readers as they rush to plaster it on lunch-room refrigerators and scan it into interoffice e-mails, it has those same fans reading about “their” workplaces every Sunday in a multiple-panel, color format. And that’s what this treasury provides. This collection offers yet another glimpse into the zany life of Dilbert, Dogbert, Ratbert, and the rest of the crazy cube crew through the masterpiece Sunday comics. Here’s even more of the great Adams’s irony, sarcasm, and satire that so many have come to depend upon to cope with the corporate workplace. Dilbert: A Treasury of Sunday Strips humorously continues the tradition of poking fun at the world of business from which we all seek to temporarily escape.“Confined to their cubicles in a company run by idiot bosses, Dilbert and his white-collar colleagues make the dronelike world of Kafka seem congenial.” —The New York Times
