Out of the Frying Pan and Into the Fire
It might be hard to read those little baskets on the desk, but they’re labeled “Frying Pan” and “Fire.”
I’d love to take more credit for this, but it’s based on an old co-worker’s desk. She had the traditional “In” and “Out” paper bins, but she also had one labeled “OMG!” where I’m assuming she kept items that needed to be dealt with more quickly.
I never asked her about it, but it always amused me when I’d walk by, so I decided to come up with my own take on it, and this cartoon is the result.
