Working Daze follows the employees trapped at MacroMicroMedia. MMM is a wanna-be software giant, and it's staffed by geeks and clueless management types. VP Rita will try anything that might make a little money (though her ideas usually don't.) Underpaid Dana carries he place and keeps it running, while overpaid Ed sleeps all day. Roy and Kathy are made for each other, and everyman Jay never knows when to keep his opinions to himself. Writer/creator John Zakour is a humor/sci-fi writer, whose work includes the Zach Johnson detective novels. Artist Scott Roberts was a longtime contributor to Nickelodeon Magazine, and is the author of the fantasy novel The Troubling Stone. John and Scott met when they both worked on the Rugrats newspaper strip.

Homage to Daffy Duck’s appearance in the classic short “Book Revue”, eh?

And this is why you write these emails on paper at home next to a waiting shredder.

Look’s like ten day’s in the cooler for him, hope he brings his baseball so he don’t get bored.

Sort of. Daffy turned into one big eye, but that IS a classic take. This wasn’t in the script- it just occurred to me while drawing to really underline Jay’s reaction.

I just don’t think that Jay is anything like Steve Mcqueen.

I wonder how Jay will like Rita’s choice of words now.

Started by Tex Avery and recreated in the film, “The Mask.”

Wow. That’s an interesting look for Jay.
I don’t suppose he’ll qualify for Witness Protection…

Can’t “unsend” emails, bummer for Jay. Nice knowing you, see you in “Hi and Lois” or something . . . .

Just claim you were sabotaged by another worker when you were away from your desk. The corporate world is full of backstabbers who wouldn’t hesitate to do something like that.

Jay may need witless protection, Rita is witless.

That’s why you learn quickly to never, never, NEVER, put the address before you finish typing the email.
Never.
Ever.
