Karl Marx Job Interview

Tirinha de Corey Mohr.

Quadrinho em sete quadros; Karl Marx sentado diante de um entrevistador numa mesa. Entrevistador: “WELCOME. WELL KARL, YOU HAVE AN IMPRESSIVE RESUME. BUT WE ARE ALSO LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WITH PASSION ABOUT WHAT WE DO HERE.” Marx: “YES YES…RIGHT…I’VE ALWAYS HAD A PASSION FOR UH…HAVING MY LABOR EXPLOITED FOR PROFIT.” Entrevistador: “GOOD. AND WE WANT PEOPLE WHO HAVE A STRONG WORK ETHIC.” Marx: “YES, WORK ETHIC. I BELIEVE WORKERS SHOULD WORK UNPAID OVERTIME SO THEIR BOSSES CAN MAKE MORE MONEY. THAT IS…ETHICAL.” Entrevistador: “AND WE WANT SOMEONE WHO REALLY BELIEVES IN THE COMPANY MISSION.” Marx: “OH YES, I WHOLEHEARTEDLY BELIEVE IN THE COMPANY MISSION. “ALWAYS DO WHAT YOU CAN TO MAXIMIZE SHAREHOLDER VALUE.” THAT’S ONE OF THE VALUES I LIVE BY.” Entrevistador: “THAT’S GREAT, BECAUSE WE LIKE TO THINK OF THIS AS MORE THAN A COMPANY, MORE LIKE A FAMILY.” Marx: “OH GOOD…I LOVE FOR MY WORKPLACE TO BE MODELED AFTER A PATRIARCHAL POWER STRUCTURE WHERE THE CHILDREN ARE EXPECTED TO OBEY THE PARENTS.” Entrevistador: “WELL, YOU SEEM LIKE A GOOD FIT, TELL ME, WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN FIVE YEARS?” Marx: “I WANT TO DO A REVOLUTION THAT WILL…UH…” / “…INCREASE PROFITS AND LOWER COSTS!” No último quadro, Marx conversa com um homem de barba que segura uma garrafa: “HOW DID IT GO? DID YOU GET THE JOB?” Marx: “NO. THEY HIRED THE CFO’S NEPHEW INSTEAD. PASS THE BRANDY.”
