Pathological demand avoidance a profile under the autism spectrum. Many with Pda exhibit a lot of ADHD like symptoms because demand avoidance looks similar to executive functioning issues the difference is rooted in anxiety. Those with Demand Avoidance are anxious over tasks and so avoid them.

Have not figured out this usage of PDA. The ones I know are PDA for the pre-smartphone device, and "Public Display of Affection." However, I know what you're talking about - it's me and phone calls.

Wait a minute, when did Arthur start working there? I thought the little guy was named Nelson...

BobC

OK. Enough already. Please keep QC in QC-Land, and out of my Real Work Life. I have Dilbert for that, which is quite sufficient. No need to hammer that nail any harder.

Uniquitous

Does it really need pointing out when Beeps already copped to it herself?

Dean Reilly

I am astonished that no one has pointed out that, intentionally or not, Beeps is copying Roko's style.

Mark Thomas - From my experience, it's more likely that the AI(s) would by design be capable of "bureaucratic BS" record keeping kind of stuff, and only during their spare time would they work on anything else.

Jim Feldman

I worked with a local American Diabetes Association chapter that had a "Beeps" in charge for awhile.

. . . about 5 minutes ago?

Clifton Royston

I think we've seen before in QC that AIs being computer intelligences does not in any way lead to being logical thinkers. Humans are probably logical thinkers if you examine us at the level of single neuron signaling, but put all those neurons together and welp, we're a mess.

Joseph Bonnar

oopsers. Sorry. :(

Churchill (formerly TeaBear)

Jeezis, I'm beginning to think things would be much better off if Roko WERE in charge...

Evgeniy Semyonov

And got so far

Spoogle McGee

So, how long until Beeps is Winslows assistant?

Matthew Van Gangelen

That could of happened. But then you SPOILED IT!

Michael Boettger

Emus. Gotta be emus. Get Millie involved here.

You’re killing me with the cuteness!!!

Bagge

I'm in!

The Shadow's Lair

Beeps have PDA? Man each new character makes me cry tears of joy when they share relatable traits like I avoid scary tasks all the time ahhhh

OldGoat

Beeps may not have a nose, but she does a fine job of posing as a mammal.

Mark Thomas

Also, this is her secondary gig. I believe it was said that working at the Dildo Factory was her primary responsibility

Joseph Bonnar

I have a new theory about upcoming events in QC. Beepatrice shall develop an almost uncontrollable crush on Winslow, who (as we know) is crushing on Roko. Meanwhile, Pintsize comes to the office to visit Winslow, is mistaken for Arthur, and RUINS Arthur's reputation in said office until Roko recognizes him ad runs him off while the reindeer wanders in and begins licking Winslow, IT'S crush...

Mark Thomas

As a volunteer position for a mom-profit organisation, there probably wasn't much in the way pre-screening for the job. And the position itself is probably only open to AI, most of will don't actually "Need" jobs unless they have both decided they want physical bodies AND gotten into the kind of trouble that prevents them from easily making enough money to provide for their own upkeep, so their probably wasn't much of Any competition for the position. And one would think most AI would by design be entirely capable of running the basic logistic work of scheduling employees, maintaining finances, etc in their "background processes" to keep the department operating while they chug away at the speed of electric thought, even as the "bureaucratic BS" record keeping kind of stuff gets put off time and again because she hates doing it...

Ronald Burdick

Being logical thinkers.. what's wrong with leaving the papers on his desk, and sending him to the store, for supplies? .. (since they've been waiting already for a while, this won't cause any great problems), or put the papers into a box, so they don't get disturbed, and send him to the store anyhow.. I'm also wondering, how did beeps get her job in the first place, seeing how ill-prepared she is for the work.. just saying..

Populuxe

I was starting to jones for my QC fix pretty bad there.

Ack

The look in Winslow's eyes in the last panel.

Matt

starting to think Beeps is pretty lucky to be cute...

Shaun

I wanna be the very meh-est, the meh-est there ever was. Daily routine is my true test, to help them is my cause.

Alex Ives

Now I want to go look up that episode of celebrity jeopardy.

Chris Heg

Highly linear thinker

Bagge

I for one am both terrified and intrigued to find out what will happen to delay Beeps on the way to the pen store.

Gary Walker

I Christen this vessel the good ship Beslow. May providence guard all who sail in her.

Shawn K. Younkin

Woot! Now we get TWO QC strips in one day.

Alcaria Swain

I see you've gotten an abs fetish, Jeph and you're determined to pass it around. Well, it's working. Also I second this Beeps and Winslow ship

Ted Van Roekel

Okay, I have a new ship. Because I cannot see Roko and Winslow, but I CAN see Winslow and Beeps!

Leona

Get that rest Jeph!

Summer Sudbrink

Will the paperwork get done? Will Beeps buy only one pen? Will the printer suffer an untimely accident at the hands of a pint-sized stranger? Stay tuned for these and more thrilling NONPROFIT ADVENTURES!!

Czarzhan

"I can't! He's doing all this paperwork." "Not without a pen, I'm not."

Adam Friedlander

Beeps tries so hard.

Evan

When has that been a double standard here bruh

Matthew Harris

The penis,

Creampuff

Bout to get a lot of hate for this but I find it funny seeing the massive double standard on how it's ok to be incompetent at your job as long as your cute.

Erin Moriarty

She needs an emotional support Hannelore.

Joel Bateman

It's funny, cause not too long ago, he was a talking tablet, and now look at him! Our little Winslow is doing good things! I bet Hanners is super proud of him!

Dracon Atrox

His face on that last panel! "No wonder Roko forgets she's not the boss."

Miyaa

Oh dear. Also, working for a nonprofit group myself, I feel for Winslow that there’s all this paperwork that hasn’t been done, and I’ve got a terrible penmanship.
