You’ve got to hand it to HR, he doesn’t really get up in arms even in this sort of situation. They are out on a limb, but he’s really been hacking away at his problems lately. Making progress hand over foot in his project.
I dunno, seems about right. After all, you know how the saying goes:
‘They wouldn’t be called Human Resources if they weren’t meant to be strip mined.’
I think Ferris is going to need a couple days off.
After that, claims of mysterious vacation to a far off land where he was never heard from again…. until his skull washes up somewhere.
Anyone else think Carol is one step away from cracking completely? Those eyes man…
Like “Oh no, an employee found my room of people in tanks. What should I do?”
A.) Swear him to secrecy and make him part of the conspiracy…
B.) Lock him up to then put him in one of the people-tanks (when new ones arrive) as method of integrated control…
C.) MURDERDEATHKILL!!1!
“Hmmm… Option C it is. That couldn’t possibly backfire in our collective faces and ruin everything…”
he’s where you go when things get rough
Good of Ferris to give HR a hand like that.
He’s a second amendment guy – he believes in the right to bear arms.

Wrist in peace, Ferris. Your death will raise this project’s chance to succees by five digits!
Meh, this guy was a handful anyway. As for HR, you offer him a wrist, he take an arm. Classic boss behavior !
If you’re found to be in breach of your employment contracts it can cost you an arm and a leg.
…and the other arm and leg, and kidneys, lungs, heart, brain, stomach, intestines, larynx…
Well, you never know when one of those’ll come in handy.
Yeah, well, no arm done, right ?
Did you need a hand with that one?
This is all out of my grasp.
Get a grip! These puns are just getting out of hand
“Hey Ferris, can you give me a hand? Oh sorry…”
I gotta hand it to you, Daedalus knows how to handle money. this expensive project only cost an arm
Aren’t severance packages supposed to go the other way?
Arm sorry, I am trying to get a handle on all this. Fingers that things would turn out this way.
Guess it’s Ferris’s day off.
You have to give it to H.R.: He’s not afraid to get his hands dirty.
…or Carol’s…or Ferris’…
Hope she didn’t mishear him and think he said “Carol, you’re fired.”
‘
Frankly, up to that point, she might just say “thank you !” and put a few miles (or countries) between the two of them.
Considering what we’ve seen of standard employee termination…that would be a good idea.
Carol’s look in that first frame should probably have a big “TILT” over her head.
I think we are redefining “Human Resources”.
I dunno, seems about right. After all, you know how the saying goes:
‘They wouldn’t be called Human Resources if they weren’t meant to be strip mined.’
well, its not quite a hand of glory, but I’m guessing it’s close enough for what HR has in mind
HR, living the 90s dream, and saving Ferris.
Jesus fuckin’ Chris, that floor is wet.
Does this mean Ferris made a bigger splash in death than in life?
You’ve gotta soak in all the little details

Looks like a classic case of the Crazy Eyes to me.
I was thinking, thousand-yard stare.
Jaysus this got dark.
That’s cool though. I like dark.
/wave to Empress Song
Consider how things are going with MM, we kinda guessed that :D
… leftovers?
Rightover I reckon, judging by that thumb.
Arm Pun
mop pun
dismemberment pun
Pun pun.
His tie isn’t Sepia.
It’s always been in color.
Welcome on the other side.
HR, you missed a spot when packing the bodybag. Have you checked those glasses lately?
Well that was definitely a life changing experience…
he almost namedropped something and we missed it!
Crazy bald-head cult guy reverse hacked HR?
HR goes nuts, saves the arm of his victim (one of several?), anyone else see a future member of the Order of the Countless Limbs?
one limb! ah! ah! ah!
One limb to rule them all?
More like the Order of One Less Limb.
Nooooooo, not Ferris! He never got that attendance bonus Carol was planning for him.
So much for loyalty.
Even though he is still in attendance!
Well, minus a couple of points for not quite being all there…
HR Dedalus should be considered Armed & Dangerous. Do NOT approach this man, call Police immediately.
Also, I have to wonder if that place has a raised floor as most datacenters do.
I have this terrible feeling for Carol…she should definitely take a sick day….
To be quite honest… H R is obviously insane.

I love how Ferris is still a tag in this strip
About the alt-text: Damm the crosswords! I can’t read the comics page now. HR got Garfield’s lasagna sauce all over it.
