Comic Strip Title: "New Boss, Same Old Problems"

Summary:

The comic strip follows the introduction of a new boss, Tina, to the sales department. Initially, Dilbert is greeted warmly by Tina, who claims to be the best boss ever. However, as the conversation progresses, it becomes clear that Tina's true intentions are to despise her employees and hurt them personally. The strip satirizes the common phenomenon of new managers trying to prove themselves by being overly aggressive and critical, often to the detriment of their team's morale and productivity.
