by Scott Adams
Part of Dilbert, book 26
First published 2005
The 26th Dilbert collection brings back the beloved comic strip characters that millions of fans know well. Dilbert remains trapped in his dead-end tech job, surrounded by the same cast of office characters. Dogbert continues his schemes for world domination and human enslavement. Catbert appears alongside other office stereotypes that capture the daily reality of cubicle workers everywhere. Scott Adams draws from his own corporate experience, having created Dilbert while working as a bank teller and later in a telecommunications company cubicle. His boss even suggested the character's name. Adams believes annoying people will always provide endless material for his comics. His portrayals of corporate life are so accurate that some suspect him of corporate espionage. The collection showcases Adams' ability to find humor in the frustrations of the 9 to 5 world that resonates with office workers globally.
