Everything Was Different

When my dad was in basic training (Air Force, 1951), he picked up smoking because smokers got a break.

Larry

when I worked at a restaurant I had a friend give me an empty e-cig so I could take a smoke break and then used that break just to sit down for fifteen goddamn minutes

asislavender

Yeah, I figured it out, but I had to stare at it to be sure.

Greg Morrow

Imagine having a phone literally built into your brain and still not calling or texting before dropping by someone's apartment. I wonder if this is normal etiquette in this world. I guess nobody seems to mind, at least.

I had a co worker take 2nd hand smoke breaks (also in the USAF 2000s)

Bonnie Doolittle

noticed that. perfect.

Joe

She's wearing a pink bow tie. Those are the ends. Just droopy is all.

Michael Boettger

I've done this at several work places. You don't need to get permission - just go take fair breaks.

Nash Wolfe

I've never been a smoker, but I have gone out of my way to befriend the occasional smoker in order to be invited outside for breaks.

Melissa

I did take up smoking in the USAF just to get those breaks (back in the early 2000s.) Quit since, but half of the people out there were only smoking to get out of the building for a minute or three.

Ronald Stimbert

Eliot x Clinton; Brun x Millefeuille is what I'm hoping for.

runrin

I nearly took up smoking in the USAF just to get those breaks. (back in the late '70s)

Jim Feldman

Im rooting for the polyamorous relationship of ElliotXClintonXBrunXMillefeuille

At a previous worksite, enough people were taking smoke breaks that I got the boss to say I could take non-smoking breaks.

Ack

... I had trouble parsing the electric pink dots on M's blouse as the ends of her tie. This is probably a personal problem.

Greg Morrow

In parallel universe, Evil!Hanners: - So, now they want lunch breaks, like us, humans? This is the last straw. Release the virus!

Evgeniy Semyonov

AIs: on your left.

Nulgar

move over faye & bubbles, brun and millefeuille are officially my otp.

runrin

everything!

Bagge

Damnit Jeph you made Millefeuille cuter again.

Stephen Wells

The Patreon "unlocked" appears right below "life hack" for me. That's fitting...

Hugh Eckert

She kicked something in.

Yonatan Zunger

So... How much did the invisible Emu donate to May's fund?

Joseph Bonnar

I was wondering about that myself, and can confirm that this is the first strip showing her new hair style. I like it.

Joseph Bonnar

Same here. I'm glad that Jeph didn't...

Joseph Bonnar

By the way, Jeph? I love Renee's new hair style.

Joseph Bonnar

Ugh, personally I prefer the smell of tobacco smoke to the vape shit my wife uses now...

Simon Green

The robot liberation movement continues to sweep lunchtime

Simon Green

Us meat-sacks have all the shortcuts figured out. The AIs will never catch up!

BobC

More brillefuille???? Yessssssss....

Solomon Garland

This is exactly what I was thinking.

Chuck Dee

I knew someone who claimed to start smoking just so he could take smoke breaks like the rest of the shop. Except it's all vaping and the smoke pit now smells like cupcakes and unicorn farts.

Lightsabr2

i swear sometimes it feels like Jeph just has a lottery ball machine with character names on it to decide who appears & when. and EVERYONE's a winner!

Peter McDevitt

When did Renee get an under cut?

Emma Humphries

Evil bosses: “haha, with my workforce of AI’s, they will work longer because they don’t need breaks... what do you mean they still have the same rights as other workers?”

Thisguy

Absolutely. Humans are so.... messy.

Tom wilson

Gosh - Millie is adorable in the last panel...

Shawn K. Younkin

Mille just learned why all of us non smokers suddenly "become" smokers when we have office jobs, but never get spotted in the smoking section outside the building.

Panic Blitz

I return once again to the notion of "this comic is full of dorks"

Dylan T

I’m sure the invisible emu will let Millie take an hour long lunch break. He’s not that much of a bastard.

Miyaa

That is UTTERLY disgusting and unhealthy on so many levels. Please don't do that

Mark Thomas

Maybe the robot labor lobby will have to regulate breaks and employer sponsored maintenance plans

Max D S

Millie has a revelation in her quest to better emulate humans!!

Michael Boettger

Gosh Mille is so cute. All gussied up in her cute outfit. I'm fairly certain if I were a human in the QCverse I'd be a robosexual they're just all so on point.

BioYuGi

I had FORGOTTEN about Millie and Brun's date

Fart Captor

Who the fuck has a long enough lunch break to eat lunch these days?

Seth Aaron Hershman has they she pronouns

Duuude.

Celine Chamberlin

Level up.

Edward Clayton Andrews

iLunch - this changes everything... Again! 🤣

Kurist Zero

This is similar to when I realised I could eat while pooping.

Spoogle McGee

This is why I used to take smoke breaks at my old job even though I don’t smoke.

I don't usually eat a lunch and I too sometimes forget I can do other things during that period of time.
