The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for August 18, 2020

I wonder why Veeblefester still keeps him around ?

Hmm, must work as a member of the House of Representatives.

Brutus’ Dad must have pulled Veeblefester into a foxhole back in the Thirty Years War.

The boss thinks it’s safer when Brutus does nothing.

Hey, that’s not easy. How do you know when you’re done?

Now that I am working from home my daughters, who both work at the same grocery store, think I do basically nothing, just sit at a computer all day. I tell them I’m like a figure skater, I only make it look easy.

Of course I would be disappointed in them if they bought it, but I have to come up with something.

Hey I get the same answer to “What did you learn in school?”

Look up to him, Wil. YOU won’t have a job when you’re his age.

Doing the same things every day at work is boring and becomes nothing.

Hey has to hold office down to keep it from floating.

If you don’t do anything, you can’t screw anything up.

The trick is to remember the time card.

Maybe Brutus isn’t sure what his job is, so he sits around waiting for something to happen.
