- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

“I have things to do” lol
Remember that Sisyphus was a monster that killed people that he invited into his court. We are not Sisyphus, and we should not share his punishment.
Blame Camus
Prometheus.
The Romans/Greek gods were as shitty as gods usually are. Sisyphus wasn't so much punished for his crimes as he was for being a smartass to the gods. Sisyphus literally stopped everyone on Earth from dying, and because Ares the God of War complained that wars were no longer fun because no one died, it was undone. The claim that Sysiphus suffered his punishment because of how he toyed with people's lives is gaslighting, the gods did that all the time. Sysiphus' biggest crime was not being another god.
We do not share his punishment thankfully because gods are fiction. Unfortunately, there's no shortage of Sysiphuses or enemies of Sysiphuses with the same or more power that would either act the same or worse.
Still looks ripped under that shirt. Let him sit there for a few years and see how that changes!
He should have kept working in the office naked.
the issue with giving someone eternal office work as a punishment is that you cant have them fired without ending the eternal office work, and being dead presumably they cant starve to death, so if they just start slacking off and ignoring their "job", what are you gonna do?
That's the whole point of Sisyphus. He could stop at literally any time, he could slack off. No one forces him, except by virtue of the fact that there's nothing else for him to do. That friction between "I don't want to do this anymore, it's pointless" and "but doing nothing is more miserable" is one of the biggest absurdities in the myth.
Same thing you do when they stop pushing that rock. Force them.
Watch me fuck up these Excel numbers and projections for the next 6 quarters.
Have you not heard of "fluffy fingers"? Its what HR represenatives do in offices to enslaved employees. It's when you tie the employee up with handcuffs and ropes, and tickle their feet for their whole lunch break.
.......not that I ever got fired from my job of HR representitive for inappropriate behavior......
Have you watched the show Severance? Excellent dive into that question and more.
Never heard of it to be honest
One must imagine Sisyphus dead inside.
This hits too close to home.
😓
This hurts. I need to think about what I'm doing for a living.
