Summary:

The comic strip features a woman who is upset with her boss for contradicting her in a meeting. She expresses her frustration, stating that she didn't appreciate it. The boss responds by saying that she is not allowed to use her fist of death on humans, but robots have no legal rights. The woman then asks if it's personal, to which the boss replies that it's not personal, but rather a demonstration of how to get her cardio.

Key Elements:

• The woman's frustration with her boss

• The boss's explanation of the demonstration as a way to get her cardio
