[Panel 1]
[Nils]
Coming to the pub?

[Jaakko]
I would like to,
but I have not
yet done this
week's timesheet.

[Nils]
Oh, you just

[Ginny]
Yes, they're terrible, aren't they?
Dozens of little boxes, and you can
only put time into Official Projects.

[Panel 2]
[Nils]

[Jaakko]
And you're not allowed to
mark up time for "filling
in the timesheet" even

takes an hour a week.

[Nils]
Take a look at

[Ginny]
And the instructions file is bigger
than the one for writing software!

[Panel 3]
[Nils]

[Jaakko]

[Nils]

[Nils]
No, it fills in your timesheet
randomly based on what you
were supposed to be doing.

timesheets? They just file them
to show to the auditors, and
THEY don't look at them either.
