An exaggeration , a hyperbole but I guess that what satirical innuendoes are all about. I keep the Dilbert series at work , right next to my dads picture . It is hysterical ( somewhat in the same humor style as my dads) and so very true. The book has to be read like a bathroom reader , dont start it to finish it , just pick it up every time a vendor refuses to return your call or the VP wants to see you for a review.
Its a brilliant read and its difficult to discuss a book thats really just a collection of cartoons and quips .
The most extraordinary thing about the book is the stereotypes that are universal , the marketing department works the same way be it Nagpur or new york , engineers are the same across the board and so is HR . The cruelty of top management is again all pervasive .
Read it to laugh at urself if u r working & read it in anticipation of what is to come if u r in college.
