It's Friday again already (...finally).
In that these comics from Radio-Craft magazine have an electronics theme,
you can claim looking at them is work-related. The themes of the comics reflect
common scenarios of the 1944-1945 era in which they were published, but with not
much modification can be applied to today's environment. People will always expect
more features from products, will be critical of everything presented to them, and
will want to haggle for the best deal from the used camel salesman. You might consider
using one of them for your next conference or project status presentation. There
is a list of many more similar comics at the bottom of the page in case you haven't
seen them yet. I missed the comic on page 32 on the first posting of this page,
but it's at the top now. Enjoy.
