A two-part comic. Top panel: a balding mustached man in a suit sits at a desk while an older balding man in a green shirt points an accusing finger at him. The seated man shouts, "YOU CAN'T FIRE ME! I QUIT! I'M TAKING MY BUSINESS TO THE STREETS!" Bottom panel: a handwritten cardboard sign propped on a sidewalk slab reads "Obstetrics: $15 OR BEST OFFER" — revealing he now offers baby-delivery services on the street like a corner vendor. Votey (aftercomic): a handwritten sign with the prices crossed out one after another, descending: "$15 $10, $5, $4 FIRST ONE'S FREE!" — he's desperately undercutting himself, ending with a free-sample pitch for delivering a baby.
