That's about all I have to offer on this one. Like, what is this book all about? It is a series of cartoons. Well, I *think* it's a series. The characters remain the same throughout. There are two groups of "old style" corporate executives who are pretty incompetent. Then there are the employees who work for the executives, said employees not demonstrating any particular skill. The employees seem to leave and start up small businesses. Sometimes they get lucky, and sometimes they do dumb things. Sometimes there appears to be a plot, but any thread seems to disappear within a few pages. Occasionally other characters show up. Generally they have some kind of idea for a business. Is this supposed to be about starting your own business? If so, it doesn't have any real advice to relay. Is this supposed to be funny? That's rather questionable. If there is some great significance in the fact that all the "peons" in the book are called "pions" I missed it. There is no other reference to subatomic particles. copyright Robert M.
