[Imagem: tirinha colorida do Dilbert em 8 quadros, dispostos em duas fileiras de quatro. A cena é uma entrevista de emprego: à esquerda, sentado a uma mesa escura, o Chefe de cabelos pontudos e terno azul; à direita, o candidato de terno cinza, gravata laranja e óculos. No terceiro quadro o chefe aparece sozinho, de pé, ajeitando a gravata. No sétimo quadro não há personagens: vê-se apenas a fachada envidraçada de um prédio, sobre fundo azul-claro, enquanto o chefe diz que a "tanning bed" era na verdade um aparelho de ressonância magnética. No último quadro os dois voltam a aparecer sentados frente a frente, e o candidato tem expressão contrariada.]](/uploads/ita-2013-ingles-q1-4.png)
