Woh! What is this thing?!
This is a social bar from the Dilbert team and our friends at Meebo. It is a cool little feature we've added to Dilbert to make sharing comic strips, Mashups and other content, a simple click of the mouse from any page.
Try it out – use the buttons to instantly send the next funny comic you read to your Facebook status or your Twitter feed. We’re adding even more ways to share soon, so check this space often!
Yes, I am one of the half million nerds that had to hit Wikepedia this morning to understand today's strip. Darned English majors always trying to slip inconsequential knowledge into my brain!
Thanks Scott!!! I thought you were supposed to be on our side! ;-)
@Axesmi: first of all you contradict yourself. In the first sentence you say management is smart and later you conclude that they are dumber than dirt.
Secondly: the Peter principle simply states that people are promoted to their level of incompetence, i.e.: as long as they are competent they keep being promoted, and in the position where they are no longer competent, they are stuck, because... they are incompetent. It says nothing about them being dumb.
Just a thought: maybe people should be hired at the top level and you keep demoting them to their level of competence. The reversed Peter principle. Though I suspect it would wreak havoc in employee motivation.
