Workplace-oriented Comics that are Darker than "Dilbert..."

Suggestions?

I actually like "Dilbert" (yes, I know I'm in the minority here). But I'd like to find "workplace-oriented" comics that are still humorous, but darker and more bitter about the grim reality of office/corporate life and organizational behavior.

What are your favorites? Thanks!

Do you remember, from the dark days of the Bush II administration, the amazing Get Your War On?

There was also, from the same deep trove of stock cartoons and convoluted brain of David Rees, My New Filing Technique is Unstoppable.

Cathy was pretty damn grim at times.

Also, if animation is acceptable, check out Aggretsuko on Netflix. It's about a Japanese office lady who takes out her desk job frustrations with death metal Karaoke.

not safe for work, arguably not safe for life, but at times hilarious is "the dilbert hole" not going to link it directly, but it comes up in a search.

EDIT: I DID NOT WARN ENOUGH ABOUT HOW OFFENSIVE IT IS. IT IS REALLY OFFENSIVE.

AAAAGH! I've seen Dilbert-related things that I cannot unsee!
