How to Announce the Imminent End of Your Comic Strip

March 09, 2022 by Scott Meyer

It looks like this strip originally ran in July 2015. That’s weird. I usually make my major announcements on April 1st.

Huh, looking at the calendar, it seems April 1st is coming up soon. Hmm.

How to Tackle a Project That Seems Impossible

January 12, 2022 by Scott Meyer

I was the receptionist at an office where everyone had to fill out a specific form every day. Almost nobody did it. The person in charge made it my responsibility to make sure everyone filled out their form.

Of course, I was the lowest person on the totem pole in that office, so I couldn’t use fear of punishment to make them fill out the form. Instead, I had to rely on charm and their respect for me and my opinion of them.

I’d bet that you can predict how well that worked.
