Should I feel bad for Erin? Because I feel bad for Erin. You should all feel bad for Erin too, her expression in the last panel is heartbreaking.

That said, she's probably cooking up some revenge plan as we speak.

If Erin hadn't proven to be batshit insane throughout the past weeks, I'd actually feel sorry for her ...
On the other hand ... Maybe that's another explanation for her being so ... Erin? ... Oh well.

Someone needs an Xbox thrown at their head...

I can't imagine being able to put up with a job where the boss treats me like crap.

Poor Erin. I know what it's like to have notable journalist removed from your wikipedia page, along with your wikipedia page.

Nope. Before, sure. But after several weeks of Erin gone Loco, I cant really feel to sorry for her now.

I can't imagine not being in a job where the boss treats me like crap.

Then again, due to trying to get a job in recession britain, I've never had a job that wasn't in a charity shop for no pay besides the odd cup of tea. I just kinda thought that's what all jobs are like. Ah, the last shreds of naivity that the internet and my own growing cynicism haven't managed to destroy...

This isn't really a serious complaint, I mean, it's a webcomic, so it's not exactly a big societal issue, so sorry if I sound a little hostile, but why does being crazy negate any and all sympathy for her? Crazy people do still have feelings. Well, unless their very condition is complete apathy, but Erin is far from that.

Gotta love working in the construction biz. Many faults aside, there is one definite bonus: You work with construction worker, electricians, engineers, & contractors. It creates an atmosphere where, if one is being treated poorly at work, they can promptly tell the offending party to "Go fuck yourself" & no one thinks much of it :)

It would be easier to feel sorry for her if she had not held someone at knife point, and gone insane.

ITs not purely because she's crazy, its more how she handled the whole ordeal. Mainly the throwing the XBox and events that fallowed.

But why does Sharon hate Erin?

Hmmm...Is it because whenever Erin goes crazy, (like that bit with the new girl, and the knife), it's Sharon's job to go and fix everything?

I guess if I had to deal with all the problems Erin causes I would hate her a bit too, but I don't think we have ever seen her have to do that. Also, even if that was the reason, all this seems a bit personal.

And I still think I have better chances of finding a job if I move to Britain. For example, a cousin of mine knew no English when he went there and works as a maid in a hotel and general helper for whoever would hire him. He earns a comfortable living this way, unlike most people who stayed in my country.

I really like the way you did the eyes. They're just more vibrant and lifelike.

Also, Erin's Wikipedia page says she died in Vietnam...
