Until maybe a year or two ago, I always thought you had to know something or two about the technology business to get the comic Dilbert. But, as you now know, I live in Canada. And luckily, in Canada, we have a broadcast network known for trying out alot of shows(as it did this, got axed, not enough marketing), a great Comedy Network(equivalent of Comedy Central when you take away the movies and add a little HBO programming, once had this show, I believe), and a Cartoon Network(named TeleToon, which buys mostly good shows instead of alot of bad or average shows and instead shows different episodes about every day). luckily, teleToon has kept the wacky, zany Dilbert that would never have been able to get into the comics. Keeping Dilbert around for a 30-minute time slot has proved to given many an oppurtunity, taken often, to take the comic to the next level and give hilarious if bizarre situations involving work, which give explanations for many queeries(not really, just in an entertaining way) and stereotypes involving the workplace. Springing to mind are the "down-sized" people.
A great, if bizarre, way to laugh the harsh world away.
