A four-panel comic of a workplace performance review. An older boss seated at a desk tells a younger employee, "It's time for your quarterly performance review." The boss smiles and says, "You did a great job. It's time for a raise." Then he adds, "I'm giving myself a ten percent bump for finding you" — crediting himself, not the employee, with the success. The employee replies, "Maybe it should be me who gets the raise," and the boss deflects: "Look, the budget is really tight right now." In the votey aftercomic, the boss says, "In fact, you're fired," and the employee's eyes pop wide open in shock.
