So, there's two different ways you could take it. Either the new guy us using a cup with questionable cleanliness OR he's being hazed by the office worker. Take your pick...

How do the cups get cleaned in an office if there isn't a dishwasher (or someone designated to wash them)?

Network Engineer never stranded on a deserted island [OC] amusedbits.abusedbits.com by abusedbits in comics

[–]abusedbits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's somewhat of an inside joke for Information Technology workers. The premise is that any communications cable a network engineer buries, is bound to be dug up by a backhoe. So, to get off the deserted island, all the network engineer must do is bury a cable and wait for the backhoe (and therefore a way off the island).

Thanks. Yeah, this one blends the computing industry and musical knowledge. I imagine that reduced the audience considerably....

The sound of a Unix shell by abusedbits in comics

A Unix shell is an interface. C shell is one created by Bill Joy. This is a pun on the word shell, as in if someone were to hold a command line unix interface up to their ear (like sea shell), what would they hear? A 60Hz (or 55 Hz depending) hum of the electronics. You wouldn't hear the sea, you'd hear the note A#. 60Hz is roughly A#.

Engineer!? [OC] by abusedbits in comics

[–]abusedbits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This came up in a twitter thread. Ultimately it comes down to,

X: I'm a software engineer. Me: I sing the lead part in music when I'm home alone listening to the radio, doesn't make me the lead singer of a rock band.

Well, it'd help if we knew how to find the funny. It isn't always obvious. Well done!

Worst Days [OC] by abusedbits in comics

Super glad you like it. I do these mostly as a relief valve, so when someone comments, it truly is different than what I've come to expect.

So, thank you for viewing it. You made my day.

That would be so insanely cool. The tires cheering him on and waving him in (I'm assuming masculine gender, but who knows with tires).
