Comic Strip Title: "Monkey Hurlage"

Summary:

The comic strip, originally published in 2005, revolves around a company's performance review process. The CEO announces that 20% of the staff will be fired due to failing reviews. However, he notes that four employees are responsible for 80% of the work, with Wally being one of them. Wally's comment highlights that while he is performing well, his calf muscles and ankles are performing better, but the rest of him is experiencing "monkey hurlage." The CEO is amused by this response, suggesting that Wally's unique perspective on his performance has saved him from being fired.
