Comic Strip Title: "Mentoring Menace"

Summary:

The comic strip follows the conversation between Dilbert, a bespectacled man with a green shirt, and his boss, a bald man with a green shirt. Dilbert's cat, Dogbert, is also present.

• Scene 1: The boss tells Dilbert that he needs to promote him to vice president because their CEO has been mentoring him.
• Scene 2: Dilbert expresses concern about being bad at mentoring or picking people to mentor.
• Scene 3: The boss asks Dilbert if he likes to hear good news that won't make him happy.
