Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 24, 2018

Susie grew up to be a union organizer.

Calvin shouldn’t have said “Let’s get started.” It would be worth it seeing Susie’s reaction to Calvin saying she would goof the project up if she did it by herself.

“Now cut that out boy, or I’ll spank you where the feathers are thinnest”- from your favourite Leghorn

I recall being just like Susie when I was in school—I did all the work when in a team. However, I believe it was because I was so perfectionist that the rest of them wouldn’t get it right. It’s no wonder I’ve never made it into management. lol

Calvin already has the manager thing down!

BOOKS? Is the Internet down?

BOOKS? Is the Internet down?

Calvin is being very obnoxious today.

Susie should say, “I’ll give you five reasons to start working!” and then make a fist one finger at a time. If that didn’t work POW!

Calvin’s parents probably made a requests similar to Suzie’s over the years.

Surely Spaceman Spiff has already been to Mercury many times. Just cut and paste some of his more exciting journal entries and this project is done.

@leadingedge Glad to hear that you like what you’re doing. As a middling level engineer, I could say the same. But there are actually people that enjoy management,getting satisfaction out of what they get their groups to accomplish.

Calvin, that is not how partners work!

Those who can not do, manage

I wouldn’t really call him a partner…

I can’t recall any instance in grades 1-12 when I had a joint homework assignment with a partner. Of course, I’m getting old, and maybe have just forgotten.

Ssssh, Susie. You can’t yell in a library!

You’ll be the one getting into trouble and you’re the good one.

OK, Spiffy Mc Manager – I’ll get the books. What books do I get?
