*BOOOOOOOOOM*
I love the pointed remark to Dora.
Claire has clearly never seen the size of the spiders below COD...that should be fun!
Cantilever - Can these please be a regular Patreon thing?
Cantilever.
I absolutely need more of these newsletters in my life
💜💖
There's a license for library scientists?? Now I wish that I were young enough to become a rogue librarian. (Artists/authors please note: there's a whole comic site there -- something like "Rashleigh Random-Feiler, Rogue Librarian")
Well you can't let just *anyone* into the closed stacks over at Miskatonic ...
Claire will immediately establish a proper archive for the employee newsletters.
Best fanservice on Patreon.
We need more of these!
I almost missed the joke submitted by Pintsize
I did miss it. Thanks for pointing it out!
smh not calling it Doomsletter
I look forward to seeing the ferret in its vest and hardhat.
I CONCUR.
I look forward to the epic number of puns on the day Claire gets to write the daily menu.
Is this QC or Bob's Burgers? Or is that something QC did long before Bob's made it popular?
Don't let the ahegaos hentai you!
I enjoy the fact that Coffee of Doom has a newsletter. It is quite fitting for such halls to share their vast knowledge of coffee with their patrons.
It’s an employee newsletter! Patrons aren’t qualified to read it.
This is a damn fine comic
Love the reference.
This makes me miss Achewood
"Coffee Talk"? Yeah, good game - almost a CoD simulator... :D http://coffeetalk.info/
So what patron level do we have to be to actually weekly Coffee of Doom Newsletters?
I could imagine this happening if it was only once per QC week. Real time weeks? I just can't imagine that actually happening. Hanners is amazing, but I don't think she actually can work that fast, and I don't think she can see through the fourth wall well enough to perceive there's a need.
Oh man I was so excited to read this
Let it be said that ferrets being used to run cables through cable ducts is very much a real thing.
We _really_ need to see this ferret at work.
I hope one day Dora will stop going crazy figuring out what Marigold’s [redacted] [redacted] is.
I know what a cantilever is, but I still want someone to build a canilever.
Emily always working seven steps ahead.
You have to be if you want to beat entropy
had a retail colleague who wanted a "memorial wall" of everyone who left, and like, that would've been a VERY FULL WALL MY GUY
No! Can't YOU lever!
Now remember what to do when anybody says the secret word...
Is a bucket of slime going to pour down on Dora’s head?
cantilever
This is all I ever hoped for
Now I want to see the ferret in the hard hat & vest!
I love this almost as much as Marigold's slash fic!
Cantilever. Also, I wonder if Linda Richman is gonna come and visit Coffee Talk. :P
“Bawbara! I’m getting owal verklempt…tawk amongst y’selves. Here—I’ll give you a tawpic: why do we droive on the pawkway and pawk in the droiveway? Discuss…”
"time at CoD is has come to an end." Hanners, don't just spell check, proofread.
She may just have found a proofreader
Bwahahaha, Cantilever
I keep trying to figure out if Emily is working on an anti-(time machine) or an (anti-time machine) and I'm not sure which is more appropriate or disturbing.
Yes, is has come to their attention.
Need the Patreon tier that gives me one of these a week
Don't know if it's already been pointed out, be there's a typo in the "Goodbye to a Friend" section: "Dale's time at CoD is has come to an end"
Even Hanners can make typos!
'Requiescat in Pace'? Maybe Hanners should have put a black border around the photo of Dale, just to add confusion.
Is this the very first non-panel-comic instance of Questionable Content? Links to any earlier ones?
Beer Sledding in #1387 https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1387
Been reading for a long time and I can say this is the hardest I’ve laughed at a comic in idk how long. Keep being awesome Jeph
Pint-size should make a joke book
Well, that was attempted, but Faye obliterated it.
This is amazing!
Can I get these newsletters in my inbox?
I cannot express how much I love this.
I mean, I’m sure this is planting seeds for a new shirt design with Pintsize yelling, “Obliterate me, daddy!”
i think the newsletter should appear every month
Cantilever :D (I'm not sure if there is a specific reason or not for this word. I have some ideas, but I may be over thinking it.)
I miss Emily
Q: Cantilever? A: Well, yes you can. But you aren't staying at my place!
Well now some people will try and use that password on anything coffee of doom related
This is glorious, I would love to see some back issues!
Agreed!!! I can only imagine that this is one of several weekly newsletters that Hannelore single-handedly produces & I would like to subscribe to them ALL! What level of Patreon contribution would it require to make that happen, Jeph? :)
I'D LIKE TO 'CANTILEVER' DORA MYSELF!
I love everything about this newsletter. *laughing* Separately, I think there is a minor type typo in the leftside sidebar of the "newsletter" that Hanners would NEVER miss. In the body of the sidebar text, 3rd and 4th lines counting down from top. The end of line 3 and start of line 4. Your resulting sentence is, "Dales time at CoD is has come to an end." It looks like you were originally planning the sentence, "Dales time at CoD is coming to a close", and then changed to, "Dales time at CoD has come to a close." However, you appear to have accidentally left the original "is" in the comic text. Hanners wouldn't miss that and would never release it without fixing it. ;)
I would like to see the ferret in its uniform.
"Can't I leave 'er (alone for two minutes without her improving efficiency)" Dora probably
Now wondering how much Ferret Guy charges to run cables. Would hire just to see the ferret at work. =3
Damn I was hoping for some Raven news
Well, there was some, but Emily unfortunately had to ‘adjust’ that.
You have to be positive and say CANILEVER!!
that was terrible and I appreciate you for saying it
Screw robots I want to live in the alternate universe where electricians keep trained ferrets. Do the ferrets join IBEW or do they have their own union?
It’s entirely possible that you already live in such a universe. https://youtu.be/KL4zI6rXjI4
Claire establishes herself by establishing a community-based lending library at CoD.
And then she establishes a literary society operating out of the shop. Dora sells more coffee, Claire has a measure of personal and professional fulfillment and perhaps gets written up which can go on resumes.
Cantilever
Ah, Emily. When did we last see her?
Irrelevant since she is working on an anti-time machine.
"Obliterate Me" with an excited coffee bean and an uncomfortable looking coffee grinder needs to be on a T- Shirt 🤣
That would be so cursed and I would definitely wear it in public!
How is running cat 6 a service a service animal would need to be trained in? This makes me irrationality annoyed.
His owner has an intense fear of the interiors of walls
This might be a cool thing to do once a month/every few months. Or maybe as a Patreon extra?
Are these normally only available to employees? I'd personally rather not cantilever myself into their distribution flow without their consent - especially when it could come at a cost of comic quality or not getting whatever fits Jeph's mood to give us. That said, they could provide another way to convey the passage of time without breaking the fourth wall with something like a narration box.
Have we seen the Service Ferret? I'm sure we have but I can't remember for the life of me, would love to get the page #(s)

I love this
Why would she let Pintsize write the joke?
Why wouldn't she? It's not like it's a bad joke.... >.>
This HAS to be a recurring gag now. It's too good not to be.
Oh god, I love it so much <3 I think Hanners and Claire are going to be good friends :)
They're already neighbors (1 floor up), so they're already familiar.
Cantilever? I hardly even know 'er!
Beat me to it.
But what IS a cantilever?
It's a building term for "thing that sticks out"
"Don't let the ahegaos hentai you" Hahaha
Wait what about hentai (verb?)?
Hanners is trying but she still doesn't really understand the hentai subculture
oooooo!!
CAMILLA
Now we need to know Clinton’s middle name.
