THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT WE SHOULD DO INSTEAD OF SHAKING HANDS.

I'D LIKE TO READ A FEW, AND WE CAN TAKE A VOTE.

WELL, IT SEEMS THAT ALL OF YOUR SUGGESTIONS ARE OBSCENE.

I VOTE YES.

Title: "The Power of Dissent"

Summary:

This 'Dilbert' comic strip, originally published in 2001, highlights the importance of expressing dissent in a constructive manner. The strip features a group of coworkers discussing suggestions for improving their work environment. One employee suggests shaking hands instead of shaking hands, which is met with approval from the others. However, another employee points out that all the suggestions are "obscene," implying that they are not suitable for the workplace.

The strip concludes with the employee who made the original suggestion voting "yes" on the proposal, despite its questionable nature. This humorous exchange underscores the need for employees to speak up and express their opinions, even if they may not align with the majority. By doing so, individuals can help create a more positive and productive work environment.
