Do what has to be done.

Ride for the brand.
Talk less and say more.
Remember that some things aren’t for sale.
Know where to draw the line.
I think the strip pretty much reflects what happens inside any caucus and/ or boardroom.
Doonesbury reflects media values (zilch).
I think Dogbert has many comparisons in today’s corporate world, my favourite being the single cell with the caption ‘next week a doctor with a flashlight will show us where sales projections come from’

All in the timing and Dilbert is more a 90’s affair.
poor people invented ethics due to time and inspiration
