AI Analysis

Title: "The Audit"

Summary:

The comic strip, originally published in 1995, depicts a humorous scenario where an employee is presenting the results of an ISO 9000 audit to their boss. The employee proudly announces that the audit has been successful, despite the company's employees being largely untrained and unattractive.

Key Points:

• The employee is confident in the audit's success, despite the company's shortcomings.
• The boss is skeptical, but the employee insists that the audit has been thorough and accurate.
• The comic strip pokes fun at the idea of corporate audits and the often-overly-optimistic language used in such reports.
