   Alternatively, there’s the reward for finishing the year under budget … they slash your budget.
   Apparently, that’s not a joke, either… because you demonstrate you can manage with less.

   Dilbert was rewarded at work? That’s a miracle in itself.

   re: Bruno

   Absolutely true. BLM had a grant for $4million for NMFS. (Yes, one agency giving money to another… makes lots of sense). NMFS only used part of it (amongst other htings, several of our salaries), and the grant was pulled.

   He could have had several days off without pay by calling in sick…but that’s not Dilbert.

    Well with all things considered I have to agree with Dogbert in panel 3. I am amazed that the human species has survived this long.
