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.

Never had the chance…I always went to the customer.

Every August, the stores closet would magically lose its contents — maybe good that less popular items got a use and a corproate investment in the education of children of employees, security and cleaning staff. That warms my heart, that focus on education.

That might be a good idea, if, say, I worked for the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.
