Comic Strip Title: "Lactation Can't Be Far Behind"

Summary:

The comic strip features Dilbert, a bespectacled office worker, in a series of panels. Initially, he presents a statistical analysis to his colleagues, claiming no correlation between his efforts and rewards. However, he soon becomes increasingly frustrated, feeling adrift and devoid of purpose.

In the final panel, Dilbert is shown purchasing unnecessary merchandise, only to feel fine and remark that "lactation can't be far behind." The comic strip humorously portrays the absurdity of corporate culture and the challenges faced by office workers.
