Summary:

The comic strip depicts a group of coworkers in a meeting, where one of them, Dilbert, is frustrated with the lack of progress and the waste of resources. He suddenly sees his coworker as a "quirky" and "colossal waste of resources," and questions whether he matters. The coworker, however, is not affected by Dilbert's words and instead invents a table, which he claims is his own invention. The other coworkers are impressed by the table and ask Dilbert if he is the leader, ship, or just regular crazy.
