Working Daze is a comic strip written by John Zakour It was co-created with Andre Noel in the late 1990s, and first appeared under the title "Modern Daze" on intranetjournal.co. Picked up by United Media, it began its run under the current title on December 17, 2001. Noel left in 2003, and Kyle Miller replaced him starting April 20 of that year, drawing the strip until June 14, 2008. Many new characters were introduced during Miller's time on the strip and readership increased. Scott Roberts took over on June 16, 2008 and continues to draw it today. All three artists delivered different, personal styles to the comic.

Years with the company have made him a bit cynical, and not a bit richer. * Roy Hobbs, the engineer/repair guy. An expert with computers and machines, but he doesn't have a clue how to deal with people. He married Kathy Moon. * Rita McMann, the evil manager. She thinks "rock bottom line" - unless it would mean her suffering. * Dana Powers, the overworked office manager. Don't cross her - if you want to go home unharmed. She has strange powers. * Andromeda, Dana's cousin. Began dating Jay Johnstone in June 2014 and still with him. * Ed Kennedy, the lazy veteran programmer. He expends far more energy avoiding work than working. * Carolina Lopez, web guru. She's smart and pretty and she knows it. Bilingual, and her second language isn't Klingon. * Kathy Moon, Roy's girlfriend, and fellow geek. Their relationship has its ones and its zeroes, but it's a real love. She eventually married him. * Sal Bandi, a weasel: he's not good with people or machines, so of course he's in customer service. * Andrew Norton, graphic designer, office cool guy. Good with people; not so good with computers. * Sue Smith, tech writer and office busybody. Jealous that others have more power or are more popular. * Medusa, the gorgon, who also works for MacroMicroMedia. She can turn you to stone with her glare. Don't annoy her. * CJ Rapps, an intern. She was once the favorite niece of the CEO, but he's since left, so she's on her own. * Elena Belloff, a professional hypnotist hired by Rita to motivate the staff. This character is based on a real hypnotist of the same name, and was added to the strip as part of a contest. * Lila Powers, Dana's mother, and more dangerously powerful. She had a crush on Ed but got bored with him. * Mrs. Jenson, an elderly woman working in the archives. Nobody remembers to whom she reports, so they're stuck with her. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Working Daze」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
