Open source transcript

DILBERT, I'M ASSIGNING YOU TO THE NETWORK REDESIGN PROJECT.

WHAT PHASE IS THAT PROJECT IN?

IS IT IN THE INITIAL STAGE, IN WHICH EVERYONE IS FEELING POSITIVE AND OPTIMISTIC?

OR IS IT IN THE MIDDLE PHASE, IN WHICH EVERYONE IS GRINDING AWAY AND HATING THE OTHER TEAM MEMBERS?

IT'S IN THE DEATH SPIRAL PHASE.

EVERYONE IS TRYING TO ASSIGN BLAME TO SOMEONE THEY ALREADY HATE.

THEY REQUESTED THAT I ADD YOU TO THE TEAM.

TO SAVE THE PROJECT?

UM...

OKAY, SURE.
