Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for August 01, 2012

The feeling’s mutual….where do I sign?

Hope he doesn’t do it all over again tomorrow. Now that would be deja vu’.

That’s what I did last year. Best senior moment I ever had !

This is so me.

Read the description of the comic: Wiley looks at the absurdities of life. And, like most cartoonists, he exaggerates. Sizes, silliness, situations – everything gets exaggerated, including cats and egos. :)

Love it.

I bet it happens like that more often than people think..I too, love the cat!

I retired by taking a leave of absence, but they never asked for me to come back. No, my name isn’t Mitt Remney.

no comment….

Fell in love with that cat on first sight! Wiley is a true artist.

The correct answer is, “Because they pay you”.

No, silly, that’s where you buy fleas. (But maybe the market’s bagging options were paper, plastic or pussycat.)Maybe they got it at the catalog store.

Take that briefcase and shove it!

@It is Alive!Where the sun doesn’t shine Mr. Capitalist elite.

Briefcase man downsized the entire workforce to maximise profits so much that he was the only one left in the company, Now has plenty of time to tabulate his net worth stashed in Cayman Islands and Swiss bank accounts.Happy retirement, sire!

When Bubbles on britcom ABFAB was asked what her job was? She replied,“to come in on friday and collect my check".

Sounds good to me!

If his wife doesn’t tell him why he will either remember it after a day at home or else when the bills start showing up.

Sorry Wiley, but the Kliban kitty is better.

I did that on 31 Dec 2009.

U wrote … "Love the cat.’-it is very George Booth like.

Wife thinks, “Oh CRAP! Now I have to deal with him all day?”

Cat thinks, “I know where you hid the arsenic…”

That’s one of the worst cats…er…dogs….er….that Wiley’s ever drawn. Anyway, LOVE the sentiment. My wife did this, and now only works if she feels like it. Best decision she ever made.@Snoopster: no offense intended, but when you enter the workforce and spend 30-40 years there, you will understand this much better!

Sign me up!

I often wonder why I go into work in the mornings . . . and then the bills come in the mail and I suddenly remember . . .

This is a rerun.

Moments of truth…..

My husband had a high-schol math teacher, Mrs. X, whom he admired. Years later we met her son, who told us this story: Mrs. X, who was nearing retirement age, reported to work for a new school year and found that she had been assigned a remedial-math class. She complained about this, but the principal told her she’d have to teach it. “Then I’ll quit!” she said.He said, “You can’t do that!”She said, “Just watch me!,” gathered up her stuff, and left. On her way out, she met a long-time colleague who was just coming in. “Where are you going?” the colleague asked.“I’m quitting!”“Well, I’m quitting, too!” the colleague said, and she left.

The wife is thinking, “I hope he wonders why he needs to be here all day and goes back to work tomorrow”.

It’s nice to think that there are actually people who can retire after the economic melt down. You know, bankers, stockbrokers, the government, the folks who stole everything from the rest of us!

What’s the cat doing? Scratching his testicles?

Old joke: Wife, on husband’s retirement, says “I said ‘for better or worse’ but not for lunch”.

Is the cat saying Hi or getting ready to scratch?

Planned to stay two more years, then they moved our offices to a building with open space with cubicles. After two weeks, it became clear my departing would be “safer” for fellow employees (“startle response”). Hanging off a cliff or handling wild animals, relaxing; desk job = STRESS!

btw, cats are all generals, because they can lick their privates…

I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired – so I think I’ll retire.

Hey, this is a repeat! I still love it, though.

This must be “Memory Loss” day. See the themes in “The Grizzwells” and “Hagar the Horrible.”

I’m retired (as of the start of this year), and my memory is still good enough to remember when this strip first came out — in 2008. Check the copyright date.

artybee: If that were a paid leave of absence, I can understand it. Stroke of genius.

This is a repeat from a few years ago.

November 1, 2012 my retirement date

Looks like he could be in for a memory jogger.

Yup, I did that. Never looked back!
