Open source transcript

I NEED SOMEONE TO RUN SOME TEST SCRIPTS ON THE NEW SOFTWARE.

I CAN DO THAT.

MY PROJECT IS ON HOLD UNTIL THE NEW HARDWARE ARRIVES.

GREAT. I'LL NEED YOU TO RUN THE SAME TESTS ON EVERY VERSION UNTIL THE FINAL RELEASE.

UM... I WAS ONLY VOLUNTEERING TO DO IT ONCE. IT ISN'T MY JOB TO DO ALL THE TESTING.

TOO LATE. YOU'RE THE TEST SCRIPT GUY NOW.

YOU'RE ADDING AN ENTIRELY NEW JOB TO MY EXISTING JOB!

DON'T YOU WANT TO BE A TEAM PLAYER?

OF COURSE I DO.

GOOD. I JUST PUT YOU ON THE LOSING TEAM.

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.
