As a consultant/contractor I had the opportunity to work at more places than most. One thing that transcended every workplace was the posting of Dilbert cartoon panels on virtually every cubicle, office, and breakroom. Also as ubiquitous was the fact that bosses invariably stopped to chuckle at each (even though they were the butt of the joke). Is it the same in military posts today?

There is no doubt. Having lived in both the Corporate and Military worlds, I have learned one thing: "Bad management is a universal truth."

This is why things like Office Space and Dilbert carry over to the military world so spectacularly well. Both sides offer levels of stupidity that can be painful to your brain.

Yes, Office Space as well. Just dress the cast in uniforms...

It wouldn't take much to do a little converting, just have to figure who would be who.

Catbert would be the CPT and the Pointy Haired Boss would be the MAJ. Dilbert would be the SGT.

I've noticed that myself. I love Dilbert, and working in IT for the past 17 years, have noticed that many of the cartoons match what I see/have seen in the work place.
