Rules of grammar don't apply to dialogue. Very few of us walk around speaking the Queen's English. In fact, applying strict rules of grammar to spoken dialogue is one of the best way to make it sound stilted. One of the reasons I like "Dilbert" is that his dialogue sounds so realistic.
There are so many Parallels with my former corporate experience and Dilbert, and this is definitely one. I often feel that Scott Adams worked for the same company. However, the corporate culture is the same practically everywhere.
I escaped that rat race when I discovered a business that allowed me to work from home. I create my own corporate culture and live life on my terms....No more pointy haired bosses!!
Yep, if you are analysing comic strips for perfect English then you really need to take a look at what you are doing with your life. I'm sure there are some English language students out their (perhaps a few MTV VJs) who could do with your direction but not us.
Besides, who says managers have a great grip on language and grammer anyway?
