Office Relocation

This Dilbert comic strip, originally published in 2003, humorously depicts a new employee's struggle to adjust to her office cubicle.

The Comic's Content

The comic strip consists of three panels, each featuring the new employee, a man with a large head, and a woman with a smaller head. The narrative unfolds as follows:

• Panel 1: The man with a large head instructs the woman to apply the cubicle to her torso area, stating that it will need butter.
• Panel 2: The woman applies the cubicle, which begins to slide right in, and is informed to stay in it for more than 10 minutes to attract rats.
• Panel 3: The woman remains in the cubicle, now resembling a rat, while the man and woman look on in confusion.

The Comic's Humor

The comic strip's humor stems from its absurdity and unexpected twist on the typical office relocation scenario. The use of anthropomorphic objects and the man's bizarre instructions add to the comedic effect. The comic strip pokes fun at the challenges of adjusting to a new work environment and the quirks of office life.
