I do the staring thing. If you don't respond to their comments people often think that they have to keep talking to explain themselves or just to fill the silence. Then they get uncomfortable and start saying odd things. It's quite fun.
Strips like this remind me of when I worked. They also remind me why refereeing a fight between my two sons, while disagreeable, is much less so than discussing the RJ-17 with Jenkins.
And I worked twenty-four years in the Federal civil service, so yes, we had both.

If you stare really hard, and unhinge your eyeballs, as though you were looking at a "Magic Eye" picture, you won't have to see him.

SUCH. A. FOOL!!!!!!!!!!!
hilarious as usual
Sometimes I picture Jenkins as sounding like Barney from the Simpsons.
