If you want anything done, you'll soon learn it's always easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission.

This is another of those strips in which I'm merely narrating reality and didn't have to do much actual thinking. Apparently this all happened at some unnamed office where some unnamed friends work. I think everybody thought it was funnier because of the actual site the guy was going to.

What I think is actually more interesting is the kind of climate that office had for something like this to happen and have nobody go to the guy and tell him "Dude, press STOP DESKTOP SHARING", instead letting him do that for the longest time.

By the way, have you tried to come up with a domain name for a dating site that is not already registered? It's insane. I was trying to put something that wasn't an actual web site and it took me quite a while... and I've seen THINGS in the process.

If you think about it, isn't that the most profound and heartfelt wish of all?

Everything else you manage to screw up in 2013 you will be able to fix in 2014.

I'm thinking the emo architect is, inside, a loving and well-meaning character. That loves Satan.

The real Paul always warned us about the perils of the "Innovation by Committee", which in essence means that any innovation initiative must be approved by a majority of stakeholders, which in most cases are heavily involved in other initiatives with short-term goals. In essence, the more people you ask to, the more "Noes" you will get.

I recommend this to everybody. It's very relaxing. I can't guarantee it won't affect your annual evaluation, but at least you won't care.

The problem with dogs is that they can sniff crap miles away.

That's the only reason they are not allowed in most offices.

This is based on a true story that went around my office for a while. Initially I thought it was just some lazy bastard making stuff up to avoid coming to work but then after a while I started feeling for the poor dog. Of course it was probably all made up, but still... think about it, the poor little beast there, waiting...

This all comes from a misunderstanding of the Word of Steve. I fear for the future.

I must admit that it was someone that pointed me to the difference between a 'manager' and a 'jefe', and then I realized that in Spain traditionally it's all been about 'begin a boss', more than actually managing or, you know, working. Since I can't for the life of me figure out who I heard it from, it will have to go unacknowledged.

But really, if your boss refers to him or herself as 'boss', you know things are not right. That 'I HEART BOSS' mug he bought himself isn't a good indicator either.

Anyway, remember that you can like the facebook page to get updates.
