Close to Home by John McPherson for September 28, 2023

I may be dense but I have no idea what is happening here. Is that a sock puppet? Is that an alien? Missing something today…

Dang, I thought that was a snake wearing a mask sitting behind the desk!

Bleeb is in carpet camouflage today.

The HR department at Muppets headquarters.

Chubbles is a great name

If you don’t like it, talk to the hand.

Dang! That’s genius! John’s still giving away ideas!

He also thought he could sneak this by me… GREEN PLAID ALERT! Everybody do a shot!

It’s Tahitian Treat Thursday!

Chubbles! (˃̵ᴗ˂̵)

Chubbles? Is that the best you could do?

Better perhaps than being fired by a text or email.

Shari Lewis he is not!

Is that Bleeb in full chameleon mode, blending with the carpet, by the desk leg?

Sure. Whatever. Getting canned sucks so whatever it takes to get the final paycheck and some “unemployment” checks is fine by me. …NEXT

Chubbles needs to get choked

You wonder how the top brass got their positions…being cowardly and wusses!

This happens to me…my boss told me to fire an employee and it was the hardest thing I had to do….I asked why didn’t he do it and he said because I’m telling you to do it. ☹️☹️

A good example of delegating!

The employee always gets the news secondhand.

Think fast, Mel, whip a sock off and deliver a strong rebuttal.

I wondered where ventriloquism went to die.

Well, your skills as a HR person doesn’t exactly fit their needs either.

When he comes back with his guns how will he find that guy with the little head?

Well I see bleep. But he is really camouflaged. LOL

Chubbles scared Bleeb into hiding…

Hand puppets are incredibly useful for difficult situations. I often defer to Hand Puppetry for intense dinner convos in the house.

Bleeb is in camo today. Hi, Bleeb!

It’s an orange “e” carpet. Those are hard to come by. Because most manufacturers are embarrassed to make them.

Poor Mel, doesn’t even rate a low life HR person…
