Comic Strip Title: "Inconveniencing for Selfish Benefit"

Summary:

The comic strip depicts a conversation between two coworkers, Dilbert and his boss. Dilbert asks if his boss has spare time to help him with a project, and his boss responds that there's no such thing as spare time. Dilbert then points out that his boss is only inconveniencing him for his own selfish benefit. The boss becomes defensive and accuses Dilbert of being rude, but Dilbert retorts that he's simply stopping the boss from blaming the victim. The comic strip pokes fun at the common workplace dynamic where managers often expect employees to work long hours without compensation or recognition.
