Open source transcript

I CAN'T GIVE YOU A RAISE BECAUSE YOU DID NOT COMPLETE YOUR PROJECT.

THAT'S BECAUSE YOU CANCELED MY PROJECT FOR BUDGET REASONS AND ASSIGNED ME TO WORK ON ANOTHER PROJECT.

DID YOU FINISH YOUR NEW PROJECT?

YOU ONLY RECENTLY ASSIGNED IT TO ME.

APPARENTLY, I KEEP GIVING YOU WORK, BUT YOU NEVER COMPLETE ANY OF IT.

THAT IS A TOTAL DISTORTION OF WHAT HAPPENED!

I CAN'T REWARD YOU FOR HAVING GOOD INTENTIONS AND FINISHING NOTHING!

WHY NOT WAIT AND SEE HOW I DO ON MY CURRENT PROJECT?

WE DON'T NEED THAT ANYMORE.

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.
