By jingo? That’s something you rarely hear spoken anymore these days. I don’t even know what a jingo is. Is a jingo some night creature that could eat your baby?
I also have some good news Boss. I won’t be coming in anymore. I’ll be keeping my $87.50 in gas and tolls. It seems it will take a lot longer to go broke sitting at home instead of coming in.
Brutus lives one heartache after another. His life is like a Bonnie Tyler song – It’s A Heartache,nothing but a heartache, Hits you when it’s too lateHits you when you’re down. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEOl38y8Nj8
After this scene, I’m sure Veeblefester went out for a drink with his friend J.C. Dithers, so they could commiserate with each other over the less-than-stellar folks they employ. Of course Brutus and Dagwood, for all the abuse they have to take, are the stars of their respective comic strips, while their bosses are just supporting players. So there!

If Veeblefester was in the army, he’d get fraged.

Brutus should threaten to quit and get a job at another Tea Cozy company … oh wait, there aren’t any!

The great resignation seems to have bypassed that place.

Brutus, if you want to get a raise from Veeblefester, you’re gonna have to wait…until pigs learn to fly, that is.

Too bad, bossman, our Brutus just lost his incentive to work harder. Bossy assumes just having the job is enough, but eventually, even the worm turns.

Watch out, Rancid, or Brutus will go all Django on your Jingo… ☺

I would like to see the original interview Brutus had for this job. Had he no clue?
