Product Review
He's the icon of millions of corporate workers, the most popular cubicle dweller on this planet. He spends his days in endless meetings with incompetent supervisors, performing perfunctory tasks mixed with the occasional team-building, brainstorming, or management fad-of-the-day session. He has entertained us for more than two decades: He's Dilbert.
Created in 1989 by Adams, in his own cubicle as a doodle distraction, Dilbert has found a home in the workplace, this generation's home away from home. Adams amuses readers with his portrayal of the absurdities of this environment with unfailing accuracy and precision. As readers of more than 2,000 newspapers, millions of books, and the newly revamped Dilbert.com site know, the familiar mouthless character with the upturned tie, his dog, Dogbert, the pointy-haired Boss, over-achieving Alice and underachieving Wally, Human Resources director Catbert, depict a world that's all too easy to recognize, complete with shrinking cubicles, clueless co-workers, focus groups and ill-conceived management concepts.
In this all-new chronological collection, Adams further exploits the fodder of workaday life, making even the most cynical cubicle dweller laugh at our shared, absurd work lives.

TEAMWORK MEANS YOU CAN'T PICK THE SIDE THAT'S RIGHT is a collection of "Dilbert" comic strips from February 13, 2011 to November 20, 2011. All of the strips are in color. Dilbert continues to pass his life away working as an engineer for the company that he hates and goes on a couple of dates that turn out horribly because of something he says. Wally continues to avoid doing any actual work and Asok is continually horrified at his situation. This collection contains the Sunday strip where Wally illustrates to Asok how his work ethic is like that of Buddha. Also included in this collection is the story arc where the Pointy-Haired Boss dies from information overload and Alice has his body stuffed and turns his body into a hand puppet. With the boss as just a puppet, the engineering department actually starts to get things accomplished. Even though the story refers to itself towards the end as a "poorly written story arc," it's actually a very good one. Adams keeps bringing the...Read more
