"In every major company, Dilbert is plastered all over. He reflects the human condition of this generation of workers." —San Francisco Chronicle
Who is the maniacal mastermind behind the plot to enforce corporate dress codes? That would be Catbert the evil HR director, one of Dilbert's corporate nemeses. "It's simple," decrees Catbert, "Fridays are 'casual,' but you can't wear jeans because jeans look good and feel good and you already own several pairs." Dilbert knows the conflicting feelings of comfort and embarrassment that result from arriving on a Friday dressed in an outfit matching a coworker's.
But casual days are more than just a source of confusion for Dilbert and workers everywhere. The collective farce of employees pushing the envelope of what is acceptable attire for the workplace is causing many to pause and ask, "Has Casual Day gone too far?"
Dilbert has become the primary source of comic relief for anyone who has ever set foot in a cubicle, heard the words "empowerment" and "downsizing," or held a day-to-day job in the business world. Dilbert's appeal lies not only in hearty laughs, but in its ability to tap into subjects and situations with which workers can easily identify. His company's quality movement is termed "qualicide," and company executives are dubbed "galactic idiots."
Casual Day Has Gone Too Far once again attacks the issues that touch cubicle-dwellers everywhere, and is sure to continue the Dilbert-mania of worker bees and managers alike.
"Confined to their cubicles in a company run by idiot bosses, Dilbert and his white-collar colleagues make the dronelike world of Kafka seem congenial." —The New York Times
