About this ebook
The Dilbert collection that showcases the best of The Boss. Every office worker can relate to this hilarious embodiment of corporate leadership.
In I Sense a Coldness to Your Mentoring, the ongoing torture that The Boss wreaks on his helpless underlings is played out in full. From a total lack of mentoring skills to clueless budget requests and pointless, mind-numbing endless meetings, The Boss makes office life for Dilbert, Wally, Alice, and his secretary a living hell with cubicle walls.
“Once every decade, America is gifted with an angst-ridden anti-hero, a Nietzschean nebbish, an us-against-the-universe everyperson around whom our insecurities collect like iron shavings to a magnet. Charlie Chaplin. Dagwood Bumstead. Charlie Brown. Cathy. Now, Dilbert.” —The Miami Herald
“Confined to their cubicles in a company run by idiot bosses, Dilbert and his white-collar colleagues make the dronelike world of Kafka seem congenial.” —The New York Times

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I sense a fondness for fascists in the White House.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5More inspired workplace angst and desolation by the master. These Dilbert quotes, on pgs 90 and 114, pretty much sum up the main character and the strip:"My work has meaning, but it's not the good kind.""I can't rule out the possibility that I'm already dead and I don't know it."This is a level of bleakness and despair that exceeds anything I've ever seen in "Peanuts".
