Strip by: Colin Foster

Delkin: Hi, we're doing a survey today. Can you help me out?
Voice on phone: How about you ^!#% off and stop calling me?
Delkin: Now, which of those do you want me to do first?

The author writes:

The initial inspiration for this strip was the idea to draw a comic on Post-It Notes. It seemed like the most appropriate topic for such a comic was work life, and seeing as how my experience with work is through a survey company, I decided to make it about one of the ruder responses I can recall fielding. (I didn't actually say what Delkin says, partly because they hung up too quickly, partly because I didn't think of it until later, and partly because we're not allowed to be sarcastic on the phone.)
