Dilbert: My co-workers make it impossible to work. I hear every one of their phone calls. It's maddening. When they walk past my cubicle it breaks my flow. And don't get me started about the food smells coming from the break room. They ask me one dumb question after another. I don't know who keeps turning up the thermostat. But it's too hot to think.

MY COWORKERS MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO WORK.

I HEAR EVERY ONE OF THEIR PHONE CALLS.

IT'S MADDENING.

WHEN THEY WALK PAST MY CUBICLE, IT BREAKS MY FLOW AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ABOUT THE FOOD SMELLS COMING FROM THE BREAK ROOM.

THEY ASK ME ONE DUMB QUESTION AFTER ANOTHER.

I DON'T KNOW WHO KEEPS TURNING UP THE THERMOSTAT, BUT IT'S TOO HOT TO THINK.

WOULD IT HELP IF I THREATEN TO FIRE YOU?

IT'S WORTH A TRY. I'LL BE IN MY CUBICLE PRETENDING TO WORK.

Accompanying textual content, such as title, tags and transcripts, is shown here if we have it. Not every comic has all of these, and they seem to be a bit hit and miss even on the official website.
