Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

After 3 decades in IT let me share some wisdom.
What you describe is not ok, and it's just letting the company walk all over you because it sounds like nobody had the experience to push back. There should be a senior guy somewhere in that team going "yo this is bullshit, we're not doing this" and making the company define the criteria so you can say yes or no. Otherwise you just don't comply, and everyone on the team has to be onboard with that. Gotta have boundaries in this career or they will literally own you and all your free time, and if shit hits the fan, they will scapegoat you in a heartbeat.
They need you more than you need them. Never forget that. There are lots, and lots, and lots of unfilled IT jobs out there.
