Rancorous bosses, quirky workers, and an up-and-down stock market populate the world of 9 to 5. A cast of regular characters include J.B. Wells (the boss), Sims (office flunkey), and Ms. Forbes. While mainly a satire on business, the comic also pokes fun at technology, relationships, dogs and cats, and life in general. The cartoon is by Harley Schwadron, whose business cartoons have appeared in Playboy, Barrons, and many other top publications for many years.

In fact, you don’t have to get dressed at ALL…

So true – but I would still be afraid some how they could see me. That would end the relationship.

Don’t bother, dear; he’s totally devoid of on-line personna. Besides, he pretended to be a twenty-five year old lingerie model.
