AI Analysis

Comic Strip Title: "Recruitment Services"

Summary:

The comic strip revolves around Dogbert, a white dog with a black nose and ears, who has started a recruitment service. He is seated at a desk, addressing a man who has come to him seeking help in hiring employees.

Key Points:

• Dogbert's recruitment service targets individuals raised in dysfunctional families.
• The man inquires about the cost of hiring someone from Dogbert's service.
• Dogbert responds by asking how soon the man needs the employee and then proceeds to count the number of fingers on his hand to determine the cost.
• The punchline is that Dogbert charges one dollar for each finger, resulting in a total of 12 dollars.
