3.0 out of 5 stars I feel cheated, October 29, 2010

This review is from: Dilbert: 2011 Day-to-Day Calendar (Calendar)

Why are there only 6 comics per week? They didn't put in the Sunday 8-panel strips.

I fully understand that most people have these at their work desk, so they see these 5 days a week (one hopes), or maybe 6 if you're unlucky. But to not have 7 comics a week is rather lame, or dare I say weasel-ish.

The quality of the paper and stand are just fine.

I do think the Dilbert logo in the lower right corner is a bit loud. the 2010 was nice, not overly showy or distracting.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for Dilbert fans, November 16, 2006

This review is from: Dilbert 2007 Calendar: This Week I Achieved Unprecedented Levels of Unverifiable Productivity (Calendar)

I buy this calendar each year. If you are a Dilbert fan, there is nothing better than starting off the day by reading the day's cartoon. The calendar does feature previously published material, but it is still funny and very fitting for anyone working in the corporate environment. The most difficult thing for me is to keep from looking ahead.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant for anyone who's ever worked in an office!, July 19, 2008

This review is from: Dilbert: 2009 Day-to-Day Calendar (Calendar)

If you're new to Dilbert, he's a small guy who works in a highly bureaucratic white collar office. The comics satirize office politics beautifully. The humor is similar to the TV series The Office, but Dilbert was the original.

I give the Dilbert day-to-day calendar to my father every year for Christmas. He works in senior management and very much enjoys having a new Dilbert strip to read everyday and to share with his staff. When he goes away, he actually takes the pages that he is going to miss with him so that he doesn't miss reading any. He often saves hilarious and appropriate cartoons to give to my husband (who works in IT) or to me (I work in Marketing). If you work in an office environment - or have escaped from one! - this is a wonderful calendar.

While the day-to-day calendar has been around for a few years now, I was pleasantly surprised to see one change in this year's format: all the cartoon strips are now in color! Otherwise the layout and format is as per previous years. The inside pages are shrinkwrapped so they are well protected in transit to you.

The other thing I appreciate about the Dilbert calendars is that there is enough material to keep them fresh. Before Dilbert, I used to give my father a Farside day-to-day calendar, but after 3-4 years he noticed that some cartoons were repeating from previous years. So far this has not occurred with the Dilbert calendar. (The cartoons are also different from the ones that appear on the daily Dilbert on Dilbert.com) I highly recommend it.
