AI Analysis

The comic strip, originally published in 1993, is titled "Too Big to Flush."

Panel 1: A man enthusiastically recommends hiring temporary workers, expressing his love for them.

Panel 2: He explains that there are no employee benefits, no union, and no need to toss them in the dumpster when they're done, as they're too big to flush.

Panel 3: The man's enthusiasm is met with skepticism by another character, who points out that the dumpster may be too big to flush.

Summary: The comic strip satirizes the practice of hiring temporary workers without providing them with benefits or job security, and the absurdity of the situation is highlighted by the man's enthusiasm for the idea.

Accompanying textual content, such as title, tags and transcripts, is shown here if we have it. Not every comic has all of these, and they seem to be a bit hit and miss even on the official website.
