AI Analysis

Title: "Multimedia Development"

Summary:

The comic strip, originally published in 1994, features Dilbert and his coworkers discussing a staff meeting that did not apply to him. The conversation highlights the absurdity of corporate meetings and the lack of relevance to certain employees.

Key Elements:

  • Dilbert's coworker, a highly paid contractor, claims to be increasing his skills while fighting to get oxygen to his brains.
  • The contractor's statement is met with skepticism by Dilbert and his coworkers.
  • The comic strip pokes fun at the idea of corporate jargon and the lack of productivity in meetings.
  • The punchline "I became a multimedia developer. How was your day?" adds to the humor, implying that the contractor's skills are not relevant to the company's needs.
