AI Analysis

Comic Strip Title: "Expectations"

Summary:

The comic strip features Alice, a high-powered executive, and her employee, Dilbert. Alice is thrilled to announce the launch of a new product line, which she claims was designed and launched single-handedly by her. However, when Dilbert points out that her expectations were met, Alice becomes defensive and argues that having high expectations is wrong. The conversation highlights the absurdity of corporate culture and the pressure to meet unrealistic expectations.
