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.

It is always good to have filler material before meetings get bogged down with manager trivial. You can always make a list of retorts while killing time and not choking the person who called the meeting.

My last employer was good a calling a meeting to discuss matters that would be unresolved and required further meetings ad nauseam.

This is one of those arguments where opinions are treated as facts.

In other words, a no-win.

In other words, 99% of the political discussion on this site.

I’ve been in that room… I just keep quiet and let the great Roy Dotrice continue with his narrative in my ear…

I’ll take Dexter over either of their choices. If basic cable is included, I’ll add The Walking Dead.

If they ask Rita to break the tie, who wants to bet she’ll pick The Tudors?
I, myself, would choose Rome.

Does Kathy actually look apologetic for Roy?

They are both on premium cable so I don’t watch either. Nor care to.

@rshive
Why do some readers believe that Kathy and Roy are in opposition, or that she should disapprove of his interests and convictions? What attracted them in the first place was what they shared.

Assuming Rita even catches onto what they’re talking about.

I didn’t read Kathy’s expression as apologetic, but rather as thinking what Roy is saying.
