Summary:

The story begins with Dilbert's boss, who has exceeded his goals for the year, being promoted to a new position. However, the boss is unaware of the reason behind his promotion, as he did not have the appearance of success.

The boss is then shown to be rushed into his new role, with no time to prepare or learn about the responsibilities of his new position. He is also unaware of who his new boss will be, and is left to wonder if it was someone he knows.

Throughout the comic strip, Dilbert's reactions and expressions are humorous and relatable, adding to the comedic tone of the strip.
