First Day

Original Release Date: October 13, 2009

This is an old joke I thought of a long time ago. I envisioned an army of stormtroopers, all standing at attention, with one guy in the middle of their ranks who was out of uniform, and the commanding officer noticing and giving him hell about it. I liked it, so I incorporated it here. However, it could have been executed better. I didn't draw enough uniformed employees; there's not enough impact. This poor guy should have been standing in the middle of a bunch of guys in the Bob hat and blue button-up shirt. Instead, we see him between Mike, in proper uniform, and Stu, who isn't wearing the shirt. Then, the guys standing behind them are in silhouette, so that doesn't add to the visual, either. None of the people standing behind the guy without the uniform actually match. Oh well. Next time, I'll get it right.
