The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for April 26, 2023

It means that for chief each of his employees represents $1 million.

One in a million dumb enough to work for Veeblefester.

Or worse: that there are 8,000 people on the planet exactly like him. :D :D :D

Quick thinkers?

Chiefs fault, now Brutus will be stumped all afternoon

You don’t want to know.

That is yet to be determined.

peon – noun – A person who does menial or repetitive tasks and has a low rank in an organization or society.

with inflation, that ain’t worth near what it used to be

You’re unique. Just like everyone else.

hmm, it could be anything… maybe even worth something, like getting turned into a dollar. how much would he be worth? :D

If you aren’t going to like the answer, don’t ask the question.

With the sneer on Veeblefester’s face as he addressed Brutus, I’m thinking he wasn’t being complimentary.

That’s less than one in a billion. Brutus improving.

There’s always a catch

That’s what I’m wondering, Brutus!

Just smile and say thanks and walk away.

Don’t sweat it, Brutus. You’re special to us readers, as well.

He says he thinks that you are special. He’s most definitely right. You are a person that any man would really want to know and have as a friend….

Thorns in Apples, duh…

And Chiefy is also one in a million… Festers in Veebles… ☺

Definitely festering.

Thank you Veeblefester thinks Brutus, a million watts is highly charged, so I’m a go-getter…

Give it a rest Brutus. Consider it a compliment, that you are a rare commodity.

Hey Brutus maybe you should ask Veeblefester that question even though you probably won’t get a straight anwer.

Brutus that’s probably the nicest thing Veeblefester has ever said to you, so enjoy it..

One in a million——rancid fish in the sea.

He walked away Brutus. Don’t press your luck!

Brutus, can’t you leave well enough alone?

Go for it Brutus; tell him how lucky he is to have you. Blow your own trumpet.
