AI Analysis

Comic Strip Title: "Marketing Transfers"

Summary:

The comic strip, originally published in 1994, revolves around a humorous exchange between two characters, Dave and another employee. The conversation begins with the employee informing Dave that he is being transferred to the marketing department, with no budget allocated for training him as a marketer. Dave responds with a sarcastic remark, "Slap!", implying that he is not prepared for the transfer.

The second panel shows the employee attempting to slap Dave, but instead, he accidentally hits himself. The third panel reveals that the employee is now seeking a drink, stating, "Where am I? I need a drink. This is a temporary fix... but you'll fit in now." The punchline is that the employee is so unprepared for the transfer that he needs a drink to cope with the situation, implying that he is not ready to take on the new role.
