Main comic, single panel: A blonde woman in a red blazer angrily points and shouts at her boss, a bald bearded man in glasses and a suit shown in close-up foreground: "I DON'T CARE IF YOU FIRE ME, BOSS! THE BEST REVENGE IS A LIFE WELL LIVED!" A caption below reads: "At last an opportunity to pursue my hobby of popping my boss's tires." The joke: the boss's idea of 'a life well lived' is petty tire-popping revenge against his own boss. Votey: A close-up of the bald bearded man reclining with a blissful, contented expression, a small thought bubble drifting up, thinking: "THERE IT IS. THAT TRANSCENDENT FEELING."
