Comic Strip Title: "Gibberish on Paper"

Summary:

The comic strip features Dilbert, a bespectacled man with a bald head and a white shirt, sitting in a chair with a dog beside him. The scene unfolds as follows:

• A boss asks Dilbert to supervise the department secretary.
• Dilbert is unsure how to manage people.
• He is given advice to try positive reinforcement, praise the things he does right, and trust him to make the right choices.
• Dilbert forgets to write down his messages, instead putting a bunch of gibberish on little pieces of paper.

The comic strip humorously highlights the challenges of management and the importance of clear communication.
