  I used to like his comics but now, working as a software developer for years… I’m starting to look at them different. He was always so fucking demeaning about the pointy haired bald boss, made him an absolute idiot. The constant joke was that the chad Dilbert was smarter than the idiot manager who never understood a thing about technology.

  I bet Scott was an absolute fucking asshole in the office and hated having to be told what to do by people he saw as less than him.

    I had a boss in a development job once, post dot com that made the pointy haired boss look like a genius. He wasn’t just uneducated, he was mean and sometimes awful.

    One of his favorite games was three options. For every task he wanted three options to do it. Once you gave him three, he would pick what he deemed the worst of the three just to watch people squirm.

    One day after a particularly uninspired rant, one of the devs waited till he went to lunch and threw his keys into the recycling shredder box. I never went that far myself, but I fully understood it.

    Then you start to consider how backward and stupid he made foreigners.
