[My all-time favorite](http://dilbert.com/dyn/str_strip/000000000/00000000/0000000/000000/20000/3000/700/23739/23739.strip.zoom.gif) After working at places where I put in SO much overtime, this really hit home. The last panel is priceless. ---

The proliferation of unique passwords my job requires, coupled with the way even leisure and entertainment sites now require increasingly complex passwords, even specifying certain characters be used, has led me to [post this one](http://search.dilbert.com/search?w=squirrel+noises&view=list&filter=type%3Acomic&x=44&y=22)in my workspace. ---

Not sure if it’s my favorite, but [this one](http://dilbert.com/strips/comic/1996-04-18/) was the first to come to mind. ---

And even after that, they won’t realize that THEY are the butt of most of the jokes. [My contribution to favorite Dilbert](http://dilbert.com/strips/comic/1994-10-17/), just because the 2nd-panel PHB quote explains every scheduling and prioritization decision ever made by Senior Engineering on my program. ---

I don’t know if I have a favorite, but one that I always think of fondly involves a visual gag. Wally is looking at a piece of paper that has some shocking info on it and his skeleton leaps out of his mouth. I don’t know the context, I just laughed and laughed at that picture ---

Is it [this one](http://dilbert.com/strips/comic/1996-05-13/)? I searched “wally shock skeleton”. ---

It might be that one though I could have sworn that Wally was alone in the panel. Its been a while, I might be remembering wrong ---
