Close to Home by John McPherson for November 27, 2012

They use the stairwell to say farewell.

how many floors to coffin corner?

Ray’s new company position is on the down side….

He’s definitely on the way out!

Hey, if he does well here, they’ll promote him to the bottom of the elevator shaft!

…and, there’s no Internet connection…

no retirement plan… he won’t be retired, just unemployed

Hey, it’s better than the basement!

And they took his Swingline stapler, too!

At least they’re stairs and not escalators!

That’s a step in the right direction.

Have seen this happen. An employee was moved around 3 times – each spot smaller than the other. Started out in an office, then to a cubicle, then to a “shared cubicle”, then… out the door. That was sad…

I’ve seen it also. And the person realized what was coming.

Dilbert gets rid of his cubicle.

I don’t see his problem. Hardly anyone in would climb up or down to door 27.
