WHY ISN'T YOUR PROJECT DONE YET?

BECAUSE EVERY TIME I WALK PAST YOUR OFFICE YOU GIVE ME THREE NEW TASKS AND TELL ME THEY ARE MY HIGHEST PRIORITY.

HIRE SOMEONE DUMBER NEXT TIME.

AI Analysis

Title: "Three New Tasks"

Summary:

The comic strip features Dilbert, a bespectacled man with black hair, sitting at his desk. He is engaged in a conversation with a colleague, who inquires about the status of his project. Dilbert responds by expressing his frustration and confusion, stating that he has been assigned three new tasks by his boss, despite having already completed the original project. The colleague suggests that Dilbert should hire someone "dumber next time" to handle the tasks, implying that the boss's expectations are unrealistic. The comic strip humorously highlights the challenges of managing workload and the absurdity of unrealistic expectations in a workplace setting.

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.
