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.

Nope. It’s someone who was turned to a frog before- though Dana did it that time.

What happened to her desk?

If you read the line right in the middle of the top of the comic, it’ still 2012 in review strips. Rita got the new desk sometime in the middle of the year, if i recall correctly.
The strips seem to be working backwards through the year.

Will the yellow pyramid (whoever it is) focus everyone’s mental energy?

The red one is Carolina
Jay is the blue
yellow is Ed
The turquoise spiral is Roy
The frog is Melvin (whom Dana once turned into an actual frog)

A curious way of maltreating the staff isn’t it Rita?

It was Madam Shannon’s idea.

One of the best things about the 2012 strips was the return of Madamme Shannon, I’ve always liked her design from the beginning and Roberts has really givin her personality with his really great modeling of her body positioning it gives her a certain flair she sort of lacked he has really breathed life into her and made her pop as a character.

Even when she wasn’t appearing for a few years, she remained popular with readers. Less noted was the return of Jay’s Fairy Godmother. She too was first drawn by Kyle Miller, then she faded from sight.
