Remember when Winslow was an iPod shuffle? Lol this strip has come so far
Aw, no Monday strip yet? No biggie though, I'm going to bed.
LOL- I figured he just forgot to post. XD
Oh no, lil guy. She called him lil guy. Will Winslow get his heart broken?
Hey, maybe that's what she's into. You know, after bread.
its good to delegate to an assistant manager! as long as she's not doing anything anyway
I love Winslow so freakin’ much! 💕
Reminds me of a 2nd Lieutenant and a Staff Sergeant I knew. Don't abdicate authority to Roko, Beeps, but do let her mentor you.
A Sergeant in motion outranks a Lieutenant who doesn't know what's going on.
God damnit, Beeps. Get it together, will ya?
I -like- Winslow.
I get the impression Beeps is entirely down with someone else doing the actual organising of people.
I get the feeling that Beeps became "the boss" by accident/default. She doesn't really want the job, but she accepts it because she cares about the organization. It's never been mentioned how many people work there, but it's possible that Nelson was the only other choice, and he said "not it" first.
Look, if someone wanted to volunteer to do my job for me, why would I stop them
The reason I typically chose is "they're incompetent, so it'll be far more work for me to clean up later than they'll ever do." If somebody competent were to want to do my job, I'd have to think about that one. To be fair, I'm not 100% certain Roko is necessarily competent. She's just clearly more competent than Beeps. I haven't really noticed much of what Nelson's doing. Most likely because he's busy doing the real work of the charity.
I love this storyline. Totally. That said, I think we should see some good ol' T n A with one of the other semi-complicated couples/throuples for a bit, then come back here to catch up. I want tattoos! I want awkwardness! I want weird hats! OK, I'm better now. Keep up the great work, Jeph!
yesss little hats
awwww, beeps is chill with this
Senators Dickfart and Pissballs are long-time political allies.
I am an evil person. At work we have management "gaps", which I silently fill until they become important, at which point I stop. I'm a senior-as-hell engineer, but I ain't no manager. I love how people look around wondering whose job it was to do whatever it was. I call it my stealth clue-by-four. I may be evil, but I'm not mean: I leave enough clues for them to figure it out. Gradually, management improves.
It sounds like you like to be productive. An <i>evil</i> person would leave the gaps in management, and would silently get paid for doing nothing until the higher ups figured out what the problem was.
That is a very cute top Rokos wearing.
Cute Roko is cute in anything, ergo, anything is cute that cute Roko is wearing.
Roko's trying -- she's very trying. (So is everyone else, including me/us.)
Stole it right out from under me. ;) But she's not as Trying as Pintsize, it should be noted.
Beeps, you really should let Roko take over running the place so you can focus on what you're good at...
Which is?
Grandpa robots??
The robots grandpa!
Hmm, so if all robots know than Hannerlore’s dad is like their god at the genesis of robotic creation, do they all treat him like a dismissive god-man of sorts?
Sounds like they think of him as Robot Grandpa
just had a vision of roko topping winslow, and i liked it.
Sooner or later Beeps is just going to abdicate because she's more comfortable with Roko in charge.
Are there any well-adjusted synthetic peeps, or do they all have That One Quirk in addition to their personality?
Every human has one. Some are just better at hiding it than others.
Nobody's gonna make a joke about the comic number?
4200. Hm. The answer to Life, the Universe and Everything times 100? Nope, got nuthin.
Oh! I didn't realize Beeps was the boss. I assumed she was just a more experienced coworker, and all the orders were coming from some third party we hadn't met. Nice that Winslow finally got around to joining the crew. After May had him convinced he'd be some sort of perv creep for asking it seemed like that would be the end of it.
We <i>have</i> been reading the same comic, right? Beeps interviewed Roko and hired her. That sort of requires "boss" status. And if there was any doubt, it was <i>confirmed</i> that she is Roko's boss in #4027.
To quote another one of my favorite webcomics: "A sergeant in motion outranks a lieutenant who doesn't know what's going on."
Who does a minion in motion outrank?
She'll figure it out one of these days.
Beeps: I like it when Roko plays the boss 🥵
No, Winslow! NO!
???
So cute, I can't even handle!
"Why does your business card have two sides on it?"
One side that says the business bit, the other side says "Fuck off, nothing to see here you nosy c-word."
And Winslow volunteers his way into Roko's circle. And grandpa robot!
She can suggest it, at least!
roko is baby
And nobody puts Baby in a corner! ;->
Hey, I wouldn't complain to have Roko as my boss.
so, you'd be working directly UNDER her ... knowwhatImean! wink, wink, nudge, nudge, saynomore!
If you act like boss, you boss.
I love Beeps
She <i>is</i> adorable, isn't she.
