This was given to us by a friend because she said some of the stories we told about the new Center Director where my husband works reminded them of Dilbert’s boss. These strips ranged from mildly funny to ROFL. Judging by what we hear from our friends and what we read in the newspaper it seems that “random acts of management” is the new leadership strategy of many bosses these days! It helps to be able to laugh about it. Recommended for anyone who works for a pointy haired boss or knows someone who does. I suspect that includes just about everyone. Luckily I’m self-employed. (

I keep watching for this strip to start getting less clever and funny, and it just keeps not happening! The guy's not human, I tell you! (

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0740704532, Paperback)

In Random Acts of Management, cartoonist Scott Adams offers sardonic glimpses once again into the lunatic office life of DILBERT, Dogbert, Wally, and others, as they work in an all-too-believably ludicrous setting filled with incompetent management, incomprehensible project acronyms, and minuscule raises. Everyone, it seems, identifies with DILBERT, who struggles to navigate the constant tribulations of absurd company policies and idiot management strategies. Syndicated since 1989, DILBERT appears in more than 1,900 newspapers in fifty-seven countries. DILBERT also appears in his own weekly television show, and on calendars, greeting cards, and Dilberitos.
