Comic Transcript

BOSS: Alice! You will return the Help Desk PCs immediately!

ALICE: But I haven't finished looking through them yet.

BOSS: Irrelevant. All customer help calls are put into queues that can only be accessed by the Help Desk technician's PC. Without access to the PCs the Help Desk is unable to take any customer calls!

ALICE: So? I thought the point of the Help Desk was to increase customer misery rather than help them.

BOSS: Loss of customer access to the Help Desk is having an unintended effect on our customer base.

ALICE: What effect is that?

BOSS: Customer satisfaction is increasing.

Using the Tag Function...

8 May 2008 - 12:50pm — David Nale

I found another practical use for the tag function!
I wondered when the shape of the eyes of "The Boss" changed from horn-rimmed glasses the present evil slits.
I was able to scan through all of the strips in which he appeared until I found the point of change.
(In case you are interested, it was in "The Merchant of Ubersoft" on 4 January 2002.)

Neat!
