I Like My Job begins with its protagonist facing the numbing realisation that her job is no longer challenging. From performance review to unwanted promotion we follow her ups and downs against a backdrop of petty office politics. But hers isn’t a mundane every-day-is-the-same existence. At times charming, at times brutal, the minimal black and white line drawings of this graphic novel deftly uncover hidden emotions. Sarah Herman skewers the mixture of monotony and paranoia that is office life in a few wincingly funny words and pictures.
