FoxTrot Classics by Bill Amend for March 09, 2021

Good try anyway, Andrea.

Is this what happened to Bill Amend?

Hand him a “honey do” list. He’ll find an excuse to go back to work.

“When reverse psychology backfires, it goes forward and hits you right in the face.”

Reverse psychology only works on the weak-minded.

So it’s pretty strange it didn’t work here.

Either Andy isn’t good at sarcasm, or Roger doesn’t get sarcasm. Discuss.

I’ve never had reverse psychology work for me

I’ve known a few couples that alternate who is working for exactly these reasons. Not the best strategy for career advancement, but getting to be a stay at home parent has its own rewards.

What about a long list of jobs, and how to pay for the material. I tell him he needs to go back to work.

So Roger and Andy no longer discuss life decisons BEFHOREHAND?

Roger, some people make lots of money playing video games in tournaments. Start practicing 24/7. Let Jason drop out of school to pursue this with you; what could go wrong?

if he was in a corporate environment for 25 years and what we saw the previous week is a typical example of how he’s still being treated then he probably SHOULD quit, maybe find employment at a less shit company.

You’re the best wife ever Honey….

Hmm, Can any one else see Roger playing Fallout, Diablo, Quake, Ultima, Wolfenstein 3D, Half-Life, System Shock. Or would he be more of a console junkie?

He isn’t the kind of person you can use that particular kind of psychology on.
