Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Took me a bit, but I got the joke eventually.
I didn't and I have a Masters in Business (done ironically after the real one).
I borrowed a friend's MBA textbook once for laughs. The most memorable quote was in the chapter on negotiating: "your skill at negotiation will affect the outcome of the negotiations."

If I was ever in charge of hiring, a candidate having an MBA would make me significantly less likely to hire them.
And why? Because I'd be responsible and prefer competent people for hiring, and just going through one of those courses makes people less competent
It doesn't. The wad of cash you have in your pocket determines your power in a negotiation. You don't have to say a damn thing.
profit = revenue - cost
Companies can't plan past the current quarter. They're slaves to the "line must go up" stock market.
Thank you
Getting a degree you don't need as an ironic joke is the most MBA shit ever 😄
exactly this, I was drunk half the time
This explains so much about MBAs
the classes and my classmates were mostly so brain-dead that I was really surprised that they can tie their shoes correctly
