Cartoon titled "know the work rules". The first panel, labeled "appropriate" depicts Garfield the cat in a business suit leaning around the edge of a cubicle and pointing to a woman at her desk while saying, "coffee lasagna Mondays am I right?" to which the woman responds, hands clasped together, "awww you're so funny" The second panel, labeled "inappropriate", depicts a far side cow leaning around the edge of the same cubicle and speaking with a word bubble which contains only the shapes of the 4 cow tools. The woman fearfully picks up the Phone and says, "hello , complaint department??!"

Oh, hi! There's a new @neverpo.st today, in which I talk with @ripefly.bsky.social of @rogue.site and @rorycarroll.bsky.social of @alloymag.bsky.social about the impending chip shortage, and *Arrested Development Newscaster Voice* what that means for your weekend.
