Dilbert comic-strip today

I simply love some of the Dilbert strips :-)! This is part of the strip which ran today:

I have told this to myself whenever I have to do something at work which I would rather not be doing (like teaching early morning TA classes, attending pointless meetings, writing juvenile documentation for marketing folks etc.) - "Well, at least I am getting paid for doing this" :-))!

Update: A different take on a similar issue :-)!

  4. Ginkgo - the short answer is, NO! The long question is, should I be paid to write this :-D?

  5. My take on this is - to do a job you get paid.. to do the job well... well, thats whole other issue..

  7. Prabhu-- if you're right, then I'd be a real rich man now.

  10. Hey Arch, that was a nice one. :--)

    Though I think one is fully successful only if he enjoys what he does. no?

  13. Rahul - After working almost the whole of this weekend, I think I should do that too :-D!

    Dinesh - :-D!

    Spark - yaaaaaaa - but who will pay me then ;-P?

    Ramki - :-D!

    Saranya - that's one way of putting it :-)! But I do not think that a person's success depends on how well they like their job. Complete happiness maybe does depend :-)!

    Ekta - :-D!

    Archana - :-D!

    Known Stranger - you seem to have commented on quite a few of my posts! Thank you for your nice words!
