Just Plain Crazy

It has been painful, Margo.  I didn't get the impression that Gabby was paying Diane, but what would a good flim flam artist be without a little ill gotten gain? 

What's the Point?

Oof. This gee-I-never-thought-of-it-like-that-before, it-could-always-be-worse, yike-what-if-I-were-a-waitress-seamstress plot twist will only be worth it if A. it turns out Thelma and the diner were a figment of Margo's imagination all along or B. after this conversation, Margo busts out of the dining twirling around and singing "New Attitude" by Patti LaBelle.

Sick of my Client[s]

Um. Thelma. That's a jean jacket. I'm over here. At the desk you sat me at. Remember? You poured my smoothie into this little mint wallet?

Tuesday Recap

Hope everyone had a nice holiday weekend!

Saturday, April 4th

Another day another strip where Margo loses her @$#! with a blonde in a pink blouse.  They all just kind of run together.  Kind of like Lu Ann/Carla/Thelma's faces.

Maybe Margo's outbursts can be explained by a vitamin deficiency or something.  It's certainly not explained by the stress of sort of ignoring one client and being tangentially involved with planning her mother's wedding.

Monday, April 6th 

"You're one of the few people that I can verbally berate.  I mean one of the few people left that I haven't already verbally berated."  Do you think that Margo hulk shredded her purple blouse demanding a drink and had to quickly change into a purple turtleneck?

Tuesday, April 7th

Margo Magee, trying to pull a full Don Draper and start drinking the hard stuff in the morning.  I'm impressed that Thelma can make a smoothie what with the diner's apparent lack of any restaurant appliances.  I'd recommend something with bananas or berries.  They are supposed to relieve stress and anxiety, according to a cursory Google search.

Missed You!

Finally, a blonde with flippy hair that will serve Margo without question. The usual, Thelma! Eggs and bacon and toast and pancakes and pie and put it all in a bowl and cover it with boiled potatoes!

Amy!

................Amy? Not in the history of this blog has there been an Amy. And yet here she is, empathizing. Does Margo really require three assistants, or is Amy just a friend of Carla's who also happens to be lined up to interview for Carla's spot? She's wearing the watch color of canary yellow. Maybe she'll be the next to smoke bomb a piece of Margo's real estate.

Wrongful Termination Suit

 Tuesday, March 31st

Margo is technically correct.  Blondes with flippy hairstyles in pink blouses are interchangeable in this strip.  But Carla is still storming up the steps to her room office to call Gloria Allred to file the paperwork for her wrongful termination suit.

Wednesday, April 1st

 

Carla is displaying all the characteristics of a perpetually emotionally abused employee.  Instead of telling Margo to take this job and shove it, she is following from  the office library to the decorative fruit bowl trying to come back for more beratings.  Get some self respect, girl!
